🚀 Course Description:

Welcome to a transformative journey towards lasting recovery and abstinence!

Tailored by A. Scott Roberts, M.S., this program is designed to help you understand common pitfalls and achieve long-term abstinence. 🎓

Key Highlights:

• Module 3 Spotlight: Dive into effective strategies to manage triggers based on classical conditioning principles. Learn how to respond to situations that might lead to relapse in a healthy, proactive way.

• Expert Insights: Drawing from the work of Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz, this course integrates elements from his approach to managing OCD with a cognitive-behavioral method known as the "Four Steps" and mindfulness techniques.

The Powerful Four-Step Process:

1. Relabel: Recognize and relabel intrusive obsessive thoughts and urges as symptoms of compulsion, not accurate reflections of reality. This step helps create a psychological distance from the thoughts and reduces their power over you.

2. Reattribute: Understand that your obsessive thoughts and urges to use are caused by a biochemical imbalance in the brain, not personal weakness or character flaws. By attributing these thoughts to an addicted brain, you can reduce self-blame and guilt.

3. Refocus: Shift attention away from the obsessive thoughts and urges by engaging in constructive activities that align with your personal values and goals, rather than compulsive behaviors.

4. Revalue: Recognize that compulsive behaviors and rituals are ineffective and unnecessary. By revaluing these compulsions, you can gradually reduce your reliance on them and manage symptoms more effectively.

This course is designed to empower individuals to take control of their thoughts and behaviors and break the cycle of obsessions, urges, and compulsions related to addiction. With practice and persistence, you can learn to manage your symptoms effectively and lead a fulfilling life. The course provides evidence-based ways to overcome relapse through proper training strategies that address managing cravings, triggers, and moods that lead to relapse. 🛡️
