About this listen
With this practical guide, we explore the miracle of recovery from dependency and provide insight into the addiction phenomena. Steering away from a one-dimensional approach, addiction is recognized as a multi-dimensional problem that requires examination of the mind, body, and social aspects of our existence. I provide practical advice on how to return your identity’s locus of control to where it is supposed to be, and that is, with "you".
Your sense of identity may indeed become lost with addiction and it needs to be found again and actively reclaimed. I will show you the key needed to unlock the mystery of your recovery. You are encouraged to take your personal key and use it to become whole again in all the different aspects of your life. You will realize that addiction is a disease of the brain. You will learn that the addictive brain has been hijacked and structurally changed by alcohol and other addictive substances. Further factors such as emotions, memories, and motivation are explored in terms of the healing process of the brain. Other factors such as cravings and dependency are also explained from a neuroscientific perspective. The influences of fear, anger, and stress in terms of addiction are discussed and practical advice on how to reduce these stimuli will be given.
You are encouraged to take an active part in this discovery of the recovery process and reclaim your life and enjoy being whole again.

When someone develops an addiction, the brain craves the reward of the substance. This is due to the intense stimulation of the brain’s reward system. In response, many continue use of the substance, unlocking a host of euphoric feelings and strange behavioral traits. Long-term addiction can have severe outcomes, such as brain damage, and can even result in death.

If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.
