People in recovery from addiction need to be aware of the potential for relapse and the range of challenges that can and, often do, lead to it. To assume or simply hope it will not occur is denial. A HOLE IN THE SIDEWALK can be used to help prevent relapse from all forms of addiction - alcohol and other drugs, nicotine, sex, work, spending, gambling, food and relationships.

This workbook is a robust tool for those who take their recovery seriously and want to maximise their knowledge and take actions to minimise the possibility of relapse. Whether or not someone has a history of relapse or wants to be proactive in beginning to work on avoiding potential stumbling blocks, this newly updated and revised workbook can be a major asset.

Each section of this knowledge and skill-building workbook concludes with exercises for readers to identify something for which they are grateful currently, as well as to stop and reflect - on both the completed section and the day.
