In the spiritual successor to the best-selling Touchstones, the author continues to explore masculinity and sobriety. Now well beyond recovery's trailhead, we confront life itself: it isn't merely abstinence and coping skills, it's a triumph. Stepping Stones guides your self-help discovery along its next steps, ensuring your recovery finds inspiration, meaning, and brilliance. For many of us, sobriety began uncomfortably. Treatment and counseling unearthed addiction's thumbprint--substance use, anger, resentments, and behavioral patterns around sex and intimacy--as well as challenged perspectives about religion and spirituality. As addictive behaviors and mind-sets gave way to both mental health and physical wellness, our new sense of self emerged, and our family and friends supported our continuing transformation. This self-help meditation book is designed for men to keep moving forward in recovery. Recovery is well-earned, but life never slows--nor should it. Stepping Stones advances a person's recovery so that it emerges as a comfortable journey that stays in stride with a person's overall life and experiences. It offers insight into the many masculine roles men undertake--father and son, friend and lover--and provides actionable meditations for leading a full life. Life isn't about recovery; recovery is about life.
