“Loving At the Edge: Recovery Emerging” is the first book of its kind. It explores how felt sensing or “Focusing” (see www.focusing.org) may be applied to the 12 Steps of... More > Recovery.
Sensing inside into the “Best of Recovery” allows our own personal felt meaning of Recovery to emerge, here and now. This freshly experienced meaning acts as a guiding light through the dark fog of early recovery.
Recovery Focusing is an empowering practice that allows us to connect to ourselves, to others, and to all that is in an amazingly deep and life-enhancing way.
The book speaks through the voices of those who have enjoyed Recovery Focusing in early treatment and through Suzanne's poetry, which captures the journey from the sunken flatness of addiction to the enjoyable aliveness of Recovery.
Suzanne's model for working with groups offers a practical tool for Addiction Counselors, Focusing Teachers, and 12 Steppers who may wish to start their own Recovery Focusing groups.< Less
