Reader ReviewsStephanie Marohn expands her efforts to educate the public about holistic approaches to health, especially in the mental health field. In this book she presents the same 5 levels of healing model described in some of her other books. Everything from orthomolecular and dietary issues to acupuncture, family systems, energy psychology, and shamanism are discussed. Descriptions of a variety of natural health approaches are included to offer a representative sample of available resources to address addiction issues. Most approaches to addressing addictions only focus on 1 or 2 of the levels in the holistic model shared by Marohn, so it is refreshing to see a book with depth of insight and variety of options explored. Conventional efforts to overcome addiction are often superficial and inadequate and this book offers insights as to why - and what approaches have been helpful for many people, including the clinical examples shared in this book. This book isn't comprehensive in outlining all the approaches currently available, but it is a good introduction to natural addiction recovery and presents a useful conceptualization of the subject.
