RECOVERY WORKBOOKS (English)

The Original Peer Support Recovery & Coping Skills Workbook & Curriculum

Book description: The Original Peer Support Recovery & Coping Skills Workbook & Curriculum is a book written by someone who believes in recovery with all his heart. That guy's name is Gregorio Lewis. Sometimes, life happens and things change. This author walked his talk straight into the gutter —living a fairly desperate and upsetting, yet transformative life while homeless— until a mere 3 years and two months ago. Now, living a new life, truly alive and well in the heart of Mexico. He is the evidence that if you want to get better, do the work, experience the improvements. This workbook and curriculum is for people like me: the poor, the unwanted, the blamed, the hurt, the labeled, the outcast, and the rejected. This workbook and curriculum is for people like you: the carers, the lovers, the educators, the agents-of-change and the healers. Everything you read in this book was learned and earned the hard way. Recovery is some of the hardest work possible. Do it, and keep doing it, and maybe, just maybe, your dreams will also come true.

Better Days - A Mental Health Recovery Workbook

Book description: This book helps those aspiring toward recovery and wellness and also those in recovery because it addresses and challenges the individual — is very real, basic, and honest ways - to make significant cognitive adjustments in how they live their lives. The beauty of this curriculum is that people like to do it and don’t consider it a chore, a demand, or a requirement because every page subtly encourages the individual to think in realistic and forward-moving ways. This allows them to feel good about doing the work. This book is for any person who struggles with their mental health and who wants to live a happier life as well as for any person who wants to improve their quality of life, how they deal with stress, obstacles, difficulties, and other people and live a happier, healthy and much more stable life. I based this book on my personal life and recovery, and every page has been used successfully in peer-group settings.
