49: Addiction Recovery | Chapter 6 | Minding The Brain Towards Change


Listen Later

In this episode, psychotherapist Emil Barna reads the revised sixth chapter to his 2017 book Minding The Brain Towards Change: What Willpower Really Means For Addiction.

Here is a snippet from the book:

"Only when one creates a life where addiction does not make sense can they move forward with their head held high and their shoulders back. You are the maker of your own fate. You are the driver. Sobriety is not easy, but it is worth it. Taking your life into your own hands is one of the more empowering things a person can do!"

Chapter Summary

Main Points

  • Willpower takes effort, and there are no shortcuts to recovery, just a consistent and disciplined approach. 

 Practical Considerations

  • You cannot back away from addiction. You must turn and walk into a new life. Find what's right for you, and embrace it wholeheartedly. Practice, practice, practice.
