Michael Werner's Bold Approach to Addiction Recovery

I don't know how your life can change, but I guarantee it's going to change way beyond anything you can envision, because you're in this little silo, this little bubble.
What if changing your thinking could change your life? In this episode of the SMART Recovery® Podcast, Michael Werner, a chemist and philosopher, shares his unique perspective on addiction recovery. As a former President of the American Humanist Association, Michael discovered SMART Recovery and fell in love with its secular approach to overcoming addiction. With thousands of meetings facilitated under his belt, he believes everyone has the potential to recover.
Michael's new book, 'Quit Your Addiction Now', is packed with practical tools for tackling various addictions. He discusses the power of motivation, the importance of being bold and direct, and how a cost-benefit analysis can be a game-changer in recovery. This episode dives into the internal battle against addiction, the memory-based nature of addiction, and how addiction impacts personal values. Michael's insights are not just thoughtful but inspiring, offering hope and practical advice for anyone on the recovery journey.
