Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What is happening in the brain when someone works the 12 Steps For generations, the 12 Steps have helped people find sobriety, honesty, connection, and a new way of life. But many people still wonder why these practices work so deeply. Why does surrender bring relief Why does confession reduce shame Why do prayer, meditation, amends, and service help people stay grounded in recovery How It Works: The Neuroscience Behind 12-Step Recovery explores those questions by bringing together the wisdom of the 12 Steps and the science of the brain. Written in clear, accessible language, this book explains how addiction affects the brain's systems for reward, stress, impulse control, memory, meaning, and connection. It then walks step by step through the recovery process, showing how each practice can help reshape the brain: - Step 1 and the prefrontal cortex- Step 2 and the dopamine system- Step 3 and stress regulation- Step 4 and memory reconsolidation- Step 5 and social neuroscience- Step 9 and the healing power of amends- Step 11 and the brain's attention networks- Step 12 and the reward of serviceThis book does not reduce recovery to chemicals or brain regions. It shows how spiritual awakening, honest self-examination, community, prayer, humility, and service can also be understood as real biological change. Recovery is not only a matter of trying harder. It is the slow, repeated training of the brain toward trust, clarity, purpose, and connection. Designed for people in recovery, sponsors, clinicians, clergy, counselors, family members, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of addiction and healing, How It Works offers a hopeful, practical, and brain-based account of transformation. For readers who have wondered what is happening beneath the surface of recovery, this book offers a simple answer: the same brain altered by addiction is also capable of healing.…
