Seven Weeks to Sobriety Book | Health Recovery Center

Most people who successfully stop drinking and/or using drugs continue to experience cravings, depression, anxiety, mood swings and other chemically induced symptoms that play havoc with maintaining sobriety. This can be a lifelong battle due to the failure to address the physical effects and nutritional deficiencies caused by addiction. The book ‘Seven Weeks to Sobriety’ aims at the root of addiction issues caused by biochemical imbalances and nutritional deficiencies.

Treating Half the Problem is Not the Solution

When her teenage son committed suicide after completing a three-month alcohol rehabilitation program, Joan Mathews Larson turned her devastating loss into a search for answers. Why had conventional treatment failed her son? Why has understanding alcoholism as a disease become clearer, while advances in treatment have not? Through painstaking study, Dr. Larson found answers and initiated a revolutionary treatment program that has become one of the most successful models ever developed for this disease. Her findings are the basis for her best-selling book, ‘Seven Weeks to Sobriety’, making it possible for millions to have access to this proven program.

The book’s breakthrough self-treatment program is designed to take an alcoholic from addiction to sobriety in just seven weeks. Based on the format developed at Health Recovery Center in Minneapolis, psychological problems (mood swings, anxiety, depression) are proved to be distortions of brain chemistry brought on by alcohol use or genetics; thus, treatment involves stabilizing the brain at a molecular level by utilizing specific “biochemical repair.”
