The Wacky and Wonderful
Recovery Workbook (WW)
by Kim Rosenthal, MD
Are you in recovery from drugs and alcohol? When it comes to treatment, do you seek something new, something outside-the-box? What about creativity, humor, artwork, coloring, puzzles, moving parts, and a super soundtrack? If you’re looking for a light-hearted but paradoxically demanding workbook chock full of traditional substance abuse treatment handouts presented in a very different light….well, you’ve reached the right place.
Except for the moving parts. We’re still working on that.
And despite the super soundtrack playing in the background, the book won’t be available until 2021, if fate allows.
Substance abuse counselor, creativity guru, brain coach, and humor in one, THE WACKY AND WONDERFUL RECOVERY WORKBOOK (WW) balances evidence-based medicine with that right-brained energy needed to survive addiction and create a life worth living.
People in recovery work hard to stay clean. That’s a priority. Life is about accountability, changing habits and environment, dealing with the consequences of using, and earning back trust. WW walks alongside you as you navigate through this.
But recovery is so much more than staying clean: you’re starting something new, and new needs silliness and exploration. It needs joy. It needs creativity. It means learning to love life without drugs and alcohol. The workbook takes the reader on a 30-day journey through a world where sobriety and passion walk hand-in-hand. It’s about seizing the moment. It’s also about creating a positive tomorrow, where a delightful future awaits, if only you reach for it.
