Addiction Awareness Meditation Kindle Edition

I want you to know that this book is not about fixing you or getting you to change into being a different person. It is about helping you use a particular awareness technique that helps you see the root causes of your particular addiction, which may be different than any other person who also refers to themself as being an addict.
