Author Description

Product Description In this hope-filled approach to spiritual and personal growth, the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous are uniquely interpreted to speak to everyone seeking a freer and more God-centered life. This special rendering makes them relevant to those suffering from specific addictions--alcohol, drugs, gambling, food, sex, shopping--as well as the general addictions we wrestle with daily, such as anger, greed, and selfishness. Rami Shapiro describes his personal experience working the Twelve Steps as adapted by Overeaters Anonymous and shares anecdotes from many people working the Steps in a variety of settings. Drawing on the insights and practices of Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, and Islam, he offers supplementary practices from different religious traditions to help you move more deeply into the universal spirituality of the Twelve Step system. Review Full of wisdom, expanding and deepening Twelve Step insight with the author's wide knowledge of world spiritual traditions.-- "Thomas Bien, author of Mindful Recovery" About the Author Rami Shapiro, commonly called "Rabbi Rami," is an award-winning author, teacher, and speaker on the subjects of liberal Judaism and contemporary spirituality.
