About this eBook

""Breaking Free Mindset"" delivers a practical, evidence-based approach to overcoming addiction by targeting thought patterns and promoting mindfulness. The book emphasizes the importance of cognitive restructuring, which involves identifying and challenging the distorted thoughts that fuel addictive behaviors. It also highlights mindfulness-based relapse prevention, teaching readers to observe cravings without acting on them. This combination addresses both the cognitive and emotional aspects of addiction, offering a holistic path to recovery.

The book uniquely integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles with mindfulness techniques, drawing on neuroscience to explain how addiction affects the brain's reward system. You'll learn how addictive substances or behaviors ""hijack"" these pathways, leading to compulsive actions. By understanding these mechanisms, readers can consciously reshape their thoughts and rewire their brains.

The book progresses systematically, beginning with core concepts like cognitive distortions and triggers. It then explores practical techniques for challenging these thoughts and delves into mindfulness principles for relapse prevention. The final sections focus on building a sustainable recovery plan, including goal setting and seeking social support.

Through practical exercises and real-life examples, ""Breaking Free Mindset"" guides readers toward lasting freedom from addiction.
