The Tao of Sobriety
Helping You Recover from Alcohol and Drug Addiction

Authors: David Gregson & Jay S. Efran, Ph.D.

🌿 About the Book

Blending the timeless wisdom of Eastern philosophy with the practical tools of modern recovery, The Tao of Sobriety offers a refreshing, meditative approach to healing from addiction.

Rather than focusing solely on willpower or control, authors David Gregson and Dr. Jay Efran teach readers to flow with life — not fight against it. Drawing inspiration from Taoism, mindfulness, and the principles of balance, the book helps people in recovery quiet their inner turmoil, strengthen serenity, and find peace in the present moment.

At its heart, The Tao of Sobriety invites readers to see recovery as a spiritual and psychological journey toward harmony — where acceptance replaces resistance, and self-compassion replaces shame.
