Rezensionen / Stimmen
"For anyone who has struggled with addiction, becoming "clean and sober" is a life-saving accomplishment. But once we are there, you may find yourself existing at the jagged edge of emotional sanity. Long term healing only happens when we work through the challenging areas of our innermost lives. This book will help you navigate the challenging path inside yourself. I highly recommend it!"
