Official synopsis Publisher
For those who struggle with addiction but find Twelve Steps programs too religious, this book offers insights from ancient sages on alcohol use and abuse. With zero reference to the supernatural this book by retired family therapist Erik Douglas Johnson explains what 3000 year old Hebrew wisdom says about fighting our internal sub-personalities that drive us to drink. In thirty brief chapters topics include ambivalence, attachment theory, choice theory, cognitions, conflicting desires, cravings, dependency, disease, emotion, learning theory, moderation, relapse, and rewards, shame, subjectivity, self-control, tolerance, triggers, and withdrawal. Johnson hopes these experiments based on the “secular wisdom” of Proverbs will help drinkers of all faiths or no faith get sober.
