I got this book for my brother, who has been struggling with addiction, and I ended up reading a good chunk of it myself. What stood out to me was the way it explained addiction beyond just physical dependence—it really focused on mindfulness and shifting your state of consciousness, which helped him reframe how he saw his own struggles. The Scale of Consciousness section was especially helpful because it gave him a way to track his progress and understand where he was emotionally. It’s not a quick fix, but it gave him tools to approach recovery with a new perspective. I’m grateful to have found something that actually resonated with him.
