Description

“Walks readers through the steps of ridding oneself of the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical clutter that often leads to bad behaviors.” —Library Journal Inspired by the twelve-step saying, “Life is simple, it's people who are complicated,” Barb Rogers points out in Keep It Simple and Sane that it's pretty easy to tell ourselves lies as we explain away bad behavior associated with drugs, alcohol, food, sex, work . . . or whatever our addiction may be. We may not do it consciously, but it creates a damaging pattern that makes it even harder to find our way back to inner peace. Through the telling of her own story and those of fellow travelers, Rogers encourages readers to wait, stop, and hold the phone. “Grab a mental flashlight” and follow her lead to discover what you were thinking and how you might think differently. Offering 24 simple ideas in four sections (mind, emotions, spirituality, physicality), along with strategies and exercises to introduce them into your daily life, this book is for people on the simple path to wellness, for people who simply want to take charge—to change the things they can change, accept the things they cannot change, and learn to know the difference without struggling through the addictive song and dance.
