Shame And Addiction
Um þessa rafbók
The book emphasizes self-acceptance as a crucial element in breaking free from destructive cycles, guiding readers to understand shame as a deep-seated feeling of being flawed or unworthy, often rooted in early experiences.
The book progresses systematically, beginning with the core concepts of shame, guilt, and self-compassion. It then explores the origins of shame, drawing from attachment theory and trauma research, before examining how shame manifests in different addictions, from substance abuse to compulsive behaviors. Case studies and real-life examples illustrate these connections throughout the book.
Finally, it culminates in a practical guide to self-acceptance, providing exercises, techniques, and coping mechanisms, including mindfulness practices and cognitive restructuring, for building resilience against shame.
