About this ebook

""Breaking Addictive Cycles"" explores the science behind addictive behaviors, framing them as learned patterns that can be unlearned. Drawing from psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, the book reveals how addiction alters brain pathways, particularly the reward system, reinforcing compulsive tendencies. It highlights the role of cognitive distortions and emotional avoidance as triggers that perpetuate these cycles.

Did you know that understanding the neurobiology of addiction is crucial because it affects a significant portion of the population, impacting individuals, families, and communities?

The book uses an approach that integrates neurobiological insights with actionable cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques. It guides readers through understanding the science of addiction, exploring cognitive and emotional components, and providing practical tools for habit change and relapse prevention. For example, challenging negative thought patterns is a core CBT technique.

Chapters progress from explaining the underlying science to offering strategies for building resilience and maintaining long-term recovery, empowering readers to cultivate healthier habits and regain autonomy.
