Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A guide to designing a personal programme to break your addictions safely, gently, and naturally.

Addiction-Free Naturally shares herbs, supplements, natural remedies, and alternative practices that can help liberate you from habitual substance use, ease the withdrawal period, cleanse the body of toxins, and combat depression, anxiety, fatigue, and stress.

The book offers specific advice and remedies for individual addictive substances and behaviours, including sugar, caffeine, alcohol, opioids, tobacco, and tranquilizers.

It explores the potential of psychedelic therapy for overcoming addiction and addresses how cannabis can be of benefit for recovery, without being misused.

Addiction affects more people than any other disease. Breaking a habit can be daunting--it’s hard to know where to begin beyond quitting β€œcold turkey.” But just as habits can be acquired, they can be broken. Others have done it, and so can you!

In this holistic guide to beating addiction, Brigitte Mars details how to replace negative habits and behaviours with positive healthy ones, and safely support your body, mind, and spirit for a successful recovery. The author shares specific herbs, supplements, homeopathic remedies, flower essences, behavioural therapy, and alternative practices, such as meditation and yoga, that can help liberate you from habitual substance use and ease the withdrawal period, as well as methods for cleansing the body of toxins and healthy ways to combat depression, anxiety, fatigue, and stress.

She looks in depth at individual addictive substances and behaviours, including sugar, caffeine, alcohol, opioids, tobacco, and tranquilizers, offering specific advice and remedies for each. She shows how each technique can be used in conjunction with conventional therapies, such as psychotherapy, methadone, or Alcoholics Anonymous. Drawing on recent research, she also explores the enormous potential of psychedelic therapy for overcoming addiction and, with the spreading legalisation of cannabis, she addresses how this plant can be of benefit for recovery, without being misused.

Offering advice on designing a personal programme to break your addictions, the author also shows how to use natural remedies to maintain your new energy and vitality as you walk the road to recovery.
