Overview

Intellect Over Emotion: Supplementing Life After Addiction Addiction leaves people feeling lost, confused, and unsure how to rebuild their lives after sobriety. I wrote Intellect Over Emotion because I've been through it. I've gotten sober more times than I can count, but each time, I was overwhelmed and left without direction. The advice was always the same-""just go to meetings""-but I needed more. I used to think, ""There has to be more than this."" This book is the answer to that. It offers a clear, practical path to take control of your life, find purpose, and thrive after addiction. This book isn't just about getting sober; it's about understanding that staying sober is only a small part of your ultimate goal. The real aim is to lead a fulfilling, meaningful life-something addiction took away but recovery can restore. Whether you're newly sober, struggling with addiction, or simply seeking a more purposeful life, Intellect Over Emotion will show you how to navigate life and find true fulfillment. What's inside? Each chapter focuses on a critical aspect of life after addiction: Relapse: Recognize triggers and develop strategies to avoid falling back into old patterns. Regret and Shame: Overcome guilt and build a future free from shame. Forgiveness: Learn to forgive yourself and others, breaking free from emotional chains. Emotions: Manage intense feelings without relying on substances. Confidence: Rebuild your self-worth and trust yourself again. Purpose: Find your true purpose in life and take steps toward fulfillment. Work: Navigate employment and find work that aligns with your new values. Finances: Take control of your financial life and build stability. Physical Health and Exercise: Understand how exercise benefits both body and mind.

Places: Recognize environments that may trigger old behaviors and find safer spaces. The Facts Speak for Themselves Addiction affects over 20 million people in the U.S. This is why I've included an appendix with key data to help you understand addiction and recovery. More importantly, this book offers a detailed roadmap for building a sustainable, purpose-driven life beyond addiction. How the book is structured: Short Stories: Each chapter opens with a fictional character struggling with or overcoming the topic at hand, providing relatable examples. Practical Application: Clear, step-by-step advice on how to handle each issue. Biblical Foundation: Each chapter draws on scripture to offer timeless wisdom, grounding your recovery in faith and spiritual guidance. This book is for anyone-whether you're newly sober, still battling addiction, or simply looking for a path to a more meaningful life. It's not about being perfect; it's about putting in the work and discovering that sobriety is just the start. The ultimate goal is to live a life of fulfillment and purpose. Your journey begins now.
