Depression is often called the "common cold" of mental health problems. Almost all of us experience at least a mild depression from time to time and an estimated one-third of adults will experience a signiﬁcant depression in their lifetime. This workbook is designed to be used as part of your treatment with a psychotherapist or counselor. While you might ﬁnd the worksheets are helpful at relieving your depression without additional help, seeing a qualiﬁed therapist or counselor will help you make much quicker progress in overcoming your depression. Depression can be complicated and can often be accompanied by other kinds of problems, such as anxiety disorders, which will need diﬀerent kinds of treatment. A professional therapist or counselor will help you focus on the things you can do to get both immediate and long-term relief from your depression.In the last twenty years, psychologists have started looking beyond just treating the symptoms of depression and have also focused their treatment on techniques that can help people ﬁnd a happier and more fulﬁlling life. Many of the worksheets in this workbook are derived from research on why some people seem to be happier than others, and you may be surprised at how little it takes to make this happen.

“If you are willing to face and release yourself from the prison of addiction, this brilliantly constructed guide will provide an ideal companion and support. Grounded in the transformative practices of mindfulness and the best of Western psychological wisdom, Breaking Free of Addiction offers a practical and powerful pathway of self-awareness and healing.” —Tara Brach, PhD, author, Radical Acceptance and True Refuge * * * “A valuable companion for anyone who wants to stop using drugs or alcohol. The whole book is inspired by mindfulness—the power to change your life through self-awareness and self-kindness. It gives readers a chance to explore every corner of their lives at their own pace. Written with smarts and clarity, but never preachy, this workbook will guide you into a more meaningful life and teach you important skills to make it stick.” —Christopher Germer, PhD, Lecturer, Harvard Medical School; author, The Mindful Path to Self-Compassion * * * “Addiction, whether it manifests as an unwholesome habit or dependence on a substance, touches all human beings and is a particularly urgent issue amid the current opioid crisis. In her beautifully written and organized book, Breaking Free of Addiction, Deborah Sosin has addressed the subject of addiction treatment in a way that is direct, pragmatic, and inspiring. Her artful linking of the practice of mindfulness with recovery engages simultaneously the understanding of a problem and the empowerment to approach it with curiosity and confidence. The workbook format at the same time orients and educates as the reader is challenged to coauthor both the book and his or her own life by completing thoughtful exercises and practicing embodied awareness. Who surrenders to and succeeds in recovery continues to be a mystery. In the dual diagnosis partial hospital program where I work, we are always looking for creative resources and I find Breaking Free of Addiction to be a remarkably thorough and effective guide for both practitioners and those aspiring to heal.” —Lawrence Peltz, MD, author, The Mindful Path to Addiction Recovery: A Practical Guide to Regaining Control Over Your Life; * * * “A beautiful and wise collection of resources for recovering and rebuilding your life from addiction.” —Christopher Willard, PsyD, Lecturer, Harvard Medical School; author, Growing Up Mindful and Raising Resilience * * * "Deborah Sosin's book is a welcome addition to the growing resource literature for leveraging mindfulness skills to address one's challenges with addiction. Her book is very accessible and provides a wide range of tools for deepening awareness of one's addictive patterns, as well as effective methods for changing them." —Mitch Abblett, PhD, author, The Heat of the Moment in Treatment: Mindful Management of Difficult Clients and the upcoming Five Hurdles to Happiness and the Mindful Path to Overcoming Them
