Recovery does not require a leap of faith into religion; it requires a step forward into awareness. Written by a Buddhist monk with 25 years of teaching experience and developed in collaboration with members of the recovery community, Waking Up Sober offers a groundbreaking non-religious alternative to the traditional 12-step program. By replacing the concept of 'surrender to God' with the practice of "surrender to reality," this book provides ten practical principles rooted in awareness, compassion, and radical honesty. Whether you struggle with the spiritual language of AA or simply seek a deeper psychological understanding of addiction, this book invites you to put down the bottle and pick up the practice of waking up.
