A practical and evidence-based approach that focuses on family members and friends as positive, crucial instruments of change-you can help your loved one with addiction.When you have a loved one who is addicted to alcohol or drugs, their addiction impacts the whole family-emotionally, financially, and physically. And with the widespread misuse of substances today, too many family members are experiencing its devastating effects.

So, how can you help someone you love overcome addiction and create a better life?From the authors of Beyond Addiction, this healing workbook offers practical, effective, and evidence-based skills for family members who want to understand what drives their loved one's addictive behavior, learn how to discuss it without conflict, and gain the tools and strategies necessary to cope and transform the situation and their lives. This comprehensive guide will empower you to be a crucial instrument of change.Using the authors' Invitation to Change approach, you'll learn: �What drives addiction, and how to address it without condemnation �How to open lines of communication and discuss substance use without an argument �How your behavior interacts with and changes the behavior of your loved one �How your self-awareness and self-compassion are key to helping the person you care about �How to reward positive change, set respectful limits, and discourage negative behavior �How to find peace with your own complicated feelings, like sorrow and anger �Concrete ways to help on a daily basis You don't have to try a "tough love" approach, or wait for your loved one to hit rock bottom-two outdated strategies that often exacerbate the problem and can lead to unnecessary suffering. You can be a force for positive change on your loved one's journey to recovery. Let this workbook help your whole family move toward greater health and well-being-together.
