The actress and author of theNew York Times best-selling High on Arrival traces the dysfunctional upbringing that contributed to her near-fatal drug addiction, sharing candid advice about proven recovery methods and customizable, holistic approaches for physical, psychological and spiritual well-being. Original. - Simon and Schuster
Actress and author of the courageous New York Times bestselling memoir High on Arrival, Mackenzie PhillipsâHollywoodâs go-to person on substance abuse and a visible and outspoken advocate for addiction awareness and educationâbrings her knowledge and voice on the subject of recovery for the first time, and shares her experiences for those who are trying to overcome addiction.
As the daughter of lead singers of the 1960s band The Mamas and The Papas, Mackenzie Phillips grew up in a dysfunctional environment and subsequently battled a near-fatal drug addiction. Now, delivered with warmth and candor, she presents the wisdom she gained from her own personal journey through addictions and her understanding of practical treatment from her work as a rehabilitation counselor. Using her own life experiences as examples of proven recovery methods, she shares the tools and holistic approaches that are available to help you on your journey to recovery.
Treatment is not âone-size-fits-allâ and Mackenzie encourages addicts and their support networks to research the methods that most effectively address their individual physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. Used by both recovering addicts and their families, Mackenzieâs book is a message of hope and reminds us that sobriety is a lifelong journey of the spirit that allows us to lift ourselves up even when we stumble and fall.
