EcoRecovery: Using Nature to Overcome Addiction and Achieve Lasting Recovery

From acclaimed health and environmental journalist Conner Ellison comes his latest self-help book about addiction and recovery!Whether, it be nicotine, caffeine, drugs, or alcohol, 10 percent of adults in the United States report having a substance use disorder at some point in their life. Unfortunately, the majority of people with substance use disorders never receive any treatment. Connor spent the last decade freelance writing for nature and health magazines. During this time, he was inspired by people who recovered from addiction and those who cared for people with addiction. He noticed a trend that many in recovery found that a deeper connection with nature is what helped them achieve and maintain long-term sobriety and recovery. Researching EcoRecovery brought him to church basement AA meetings, luxury Caribbean rehab centers, the Appalachian trail, medical schools, methadone clinics, natural history museums, and Swiss psychiatric treatment programs. He spent over a year speaking with individuals in recovery, physicians, nurses, therapists, naturalists, hiking enthusiasts, and addiction scientists. EcoRecovery symbolizes both the research and a solution, in a 12-step format designed to assist the individual with addiction, the family and friends of the addicted, and any professionals who may be treating such a case. It is a fresh new take on how Mother Nature, combined with traditional therapy, plant-based vegan diet, and exercise can work wonders and allow a person to step out of their current state and embrace life itself. It will provide hope to those who have lost hope altogether.Read more
