Publisher's Synopsis
Psychiatrists and therapists wonder how exactly the 12 Steps work! Parents and teachers desperately search for ways to control anger and prevent addiction and behavioral problems in children! Rajiv Bhole, a topper from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, and a former all-India representative of one of the 12 Step programs, after 20 years of solid research has finally discovered, embedded in the 12 Step program, a therapy that makes the program so very effective. The therapy, which was the path followed by the AA founders, is a simple psychoanalysis that quickly helps a person to overcome his anger and hatred and handle his emotions, and to improve relationships and overcome addiction and other behavioral problems. By adding to it the Lost Path of the Buddha - of dispassionately observing one's body sensations, which the Bhagavad Gita acclaims as the only way to attain 'amrit, ' immortality - the therapy has been made even more effective. This book gives you the precise directions of the therapy, and will help not only parents, teachers, addicts, social workers, doctors and therapists but, as it directly addresses the Maslow Model's four deficiency needs, will also be a great asset to human resource professionals, for achieving self-actualization
