I wrote this gambling addiction workbook to explore ways to deal with daily challenges, increase self-understanding of life purposes, and fulfill the synchronization of sublime emotions. We are the way we perceive and feel the universe. The way we use our emotions determines our capacity to organize our thoughts and live a troubled or peaceful life. We self-discover the dynamics of our motivations and inner selves by recognizing the roots of our thoughts, attitudes and behaviors, and by fostering the process of assertiveness, self-awareness, self-care, self-regulation, self-actualization, insight, hope, healing, and transformation. You will challenge your belief system, overwhelming behaviors, and misunderstood feelings and thoughts, when completing this workbook. You will identify physical, emotional and cognitive cues that may trigger unwanted behaviors, such as uncontrollable, unmanageable gambling, and master the application of mindfulness and self-control. You will learn relapse prevention, stress and anger management, conflict resolution, decision making, grief and loss, problem solving, assertiveness, healthy communication skills, and mindfulness coping skills. You will be able to demonstrate knowledge of application of coping skills with others, with your psychotherapist or in group. You will comprehend the underlying forces of healthy and unhealthy relationships, and improve your interpersonal relationships. I have learned that personal awareness and growth leads to an increase sense of identity, personal power, creativity, and greater purpose. The goal of this workbook is to have you acknowledge your strengths through your own self-discovery from your childhood to the present time, and reveal fundamental components that will assist you in recognizing the true meaning of your life without addiction. You will understand how environment and circumstances affect behaviors, and how powerful inner motivations make the person you became.
