In Stewart’s story, what made the difference was finding tools that actually worked for him including SMART Recovery.
By focusing on self-management, understanding thoughts and behaviours, and building practical coping strategies, he was able to take back control and move forward.
That’s what SMART is all about, empowering people to create change in their own way.
WHY NOT MAINTAIN MOTIVATION WITH A NEW BOOK!
Rick Kuplinski is a meeting facilitator in Henderson, Nevada, and a SMART Recovery Volunteer Support Coordinator in Nevada.
He is also the author of a new SMART Recovery-related book called Supercharge Your Recovery! 30 Essays on Beating Addiction with SMART Recovery.
This book, now available on Amazon, has been promoted by SMART Recovery USA and is gaining positive reviews from people who are finding it a useful companion to participation in SMART Recovery.
The book features a collection of short, accessible reflections that bolster motivation for change and useful perspective and actionable strategies on its various topics related to SMART Recovery’s 4-Point Program.
“In a set of brief essays, Kuplinski gets straight to the point on issues someone who is considering attending SMART Recovery, or already attending, would be interested in. This book is a welcome addition to the emerging literature about SMART. Kuplinski writes from the point of view of someone who has done it, thought about it, organized it, and taught it. Now, a much wider audience will have the benefit of his thoughtful experience.” – Arthur (Tom) Horvath.
“Rick has assembled a wonderful book that is a powerful continuing education resource for those who are in recovery already and are continuing their successful journey, and a wonderful source of inspiration and guidance for those who are still trapped by their addictive behaviors. Written in clear terms that smacks of authenticity and deep insight from somebody who’s lived through the struggle, emerged whole, and is now helping so many others on their journey.” – Ted Perkins
