Review of 7 secret pillars of sobriety
In 7 Secret Pillars of Sobriety, Tim Murphy offers a fresh approach to overcoming alcohol dependency, perfect for those who don't resonate with traditional methods like AA and the 12 Steps. This groundbreaking guide introduces seven fundamental pillars that enable you to create a personalized recovery plan tailored to your unique needs and lifestyle. Drawing from his own experiences, Murphy provides practical tools and emotional support to manage stress, navigate social situations without alcohol, and strengthen your sober identity. Beyond just quitting alcohol, the book promotes a fulfilling, purpose-driven life, equipping readers to celebrate achievements and maintain long-term sobriety.
What I liked most about this book is that it is complete and down-to-earth. Don't expect to find any fancy formulas here. Even so, the reader will find several valuable pieces of advice, such as how to set measurable milestones, the importance of identifying an accountability partner, ways of using prompts for self-reflection, the need to make gratitude a daily habit, and much more. Some tips are generic and appear in several self-help books, while others are specific to the issue of alcoholism. However, they are all useful and will help anyone who needs them. The combined value of all the advice is the most valuable asset of this work.
There was nothing in the book that I disliked. Perhaps the author could have added some pictures, but that is more a matter of taste than a problem. I did find four grammatical errors, but that is to be expected in a book with almost 200 pages. The book's editing is decent.
Overall, 7 Secret Pillars of Sobriety is a comprehensive and well-written guide that provides several tips on evolving in the fight against alcoholism. The book covers all possible scenarios and does not contain any serious errors. Since nothing displeased me in this work, the most appropriate rating is 5 out of 5 stars. I can't say anything to the author to improve the work.
This book is designed for those who want to quit drinking and are not succeeding with the traditional approach. However, the book does provide a lot of positive advice that applies to any addiction in general. Generally speaking, anyone can set realistic goals, plan everything, and be prepared for all situations. That can be used to avoid drinking alcohol and eat healthily. Even so, I recommend this book, especially for those who have problems with alcohol.
