Product Description

If you've ever wished you could just stop . . .
– drinking – eating – smoking – gambling – shopping (pick one)

For anyone struggling to break the cycle of addiction comes the groundbreaking approach from The Chopra Center, the world-renowned facility that has successfully helped thousands of people change their lives for the better.

Chopra Center cofounder and medical director David Simon, M.D., and bestselling author and personal-growth expert Deepak Chopra outline their revolutionary approach--one that defies outmoded beliefs about recovery, particularly that people 'are' their addictions or that they are powerless to control them. By integrating the best of Western research with Eastern traditions, Simon and Chopra give anyone the tools to uncover the true cause of their addiction and provide comprehensive steps to end it for good. Readers will discover how to:

- Recognize the purpose their habit serves and how to fill the void
- Identify triggers and avoid relapse
- Deal with disappointments, insecurities, or anger in ways that provide lasting relief, not a temporary high
- Use meditation to counter stress
- Choose foods and supplements that will detoxify the body and curb cravings

By following the path thousands have used to turn their lives around, now anyone can have access to the renowned Chopra Center's program to achieve lasting freedom from addiction.

Freedom from Addiction

Freedom From Addiction  
This book is amazing!!!! The way David Simmon refamed the 12 step program is remarkable and much more user friendly for the general public...it's very nice how he and Deepak explain why people become addicted and that it is not something you need to see as an addiction for the rest of your life. The only thing missing is a program at the Chopra Center to go with it.

They miss the mark  
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R13CZYSSA5EL9P I've been reading Deepak for many years and have had a conversation with him regarding addiction and the 12 Steps. He's coming at it from a non-addict's perspective. One addict talking to another is the key to 12 Step recovery. See my upcoming book, The 12 Step Buddhist, where I deal with this material from the perspective of an addict, and a Buddhist.
