Alternative Recovery Recommended Reading

"Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed and some few to be chewed
And digested that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read but
Not curiously, and some few to be read wholly and with diligence and attention"

~ The Truth About Addiction and Recovery ~

The Life Process Program For Outgrowing Destructive Habits
Stanton Peele, Ph.D., and Archie Brodsky

~ The Road to Tolerance ~

Albert Ellis shows how REBT promotes an attitude of tolerance - an open-minded
Willingness to accept the frailties, less-than-ideal behaviors, and unique characteristics
Of both ourselves and others.  Intolerance of others can easily lead to personal emotional
Disturbances and unhappiness, and can also be a serious disruptive force in today’s
Multicultural global society.  Dr. Ellis shows that being tolerant is a deliberate, rational
Choice that we can all make, both for the good of ourselves and of the world
Albert Ellis, Ph.D.

~ Think Your Way to Happiness ~

By using the rational approach outlined here, you’ll learn to understand your feelings,
And see that you don’t have to feel bad about anything.
Windy Dryden, Ph.D. & Jack Gordon

~ Addiction is a Choice ~

Do we choose our addictions?  Dr Schaler says yes.  "Addictions are indispensable.
Addictions -- and only addictions -- can open us up to all that makes life rich and fulfilling.
Yet addictions can also have appalling consequences.  The conclusion is clear:  choose
Your addictions very carefully!  Nothing is more vital for a young person than to select
The right addictions.  Addictions we approve are called 'virtues'.  Addictions we
Disapprove of are called 'vices'. 
Dr. Jeffrey
