A new comprehensive guide to recovery has not been written for the better part of a century. In the first truly revolutionary method of recovery in that time, California Sober guides the reader on the path to the same awakening that kept the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous free from his substance of choice for 36 years. Along the way, I lay out a clear path to recovery using the California Sober method, providing readers with a guide to these powerful techniques that they can follow in order to overcome addiction without the need for asceticism, and providing the tools needed to find true recovery from addiction and other conditions of the mind. In the 84 years since the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous was published, almost everything written on the subject of recovery has either borrowed from, referenced, or simply copied its steps. Every attempt at reproducing the author's success (including A.A. itself) fails due to the omission of one truth. The founder of A.A. was California Sober. It wasn't the 12 steps that saved Bill Wilson from the alcoholism that was ruining his life. He had yet to write his famous steps, steps that were carefully crafted to guide fellow addicts toward a spiritual awakening that he credited for his sobriety, a spiritual awakening that was brought on by a 50-hour psychedelic treatment. Wilson would later realize the true cause of that awakening when he returned to the California Sober method in 1957, bringing with him his wife, his secretary, his priest, and fellow alcoholics. Those seeking recovery have been crying out for a 21st-century program from someone who has been where they are and has come out on the other side, someone who can tell them how and why that program works. The best-selling book on quitting alcohol was written by an alcoholic who overcame his addiction, and that book fails to mention the true reason for the author's success. Artists Demi Lovato and Willie Nelson have recorded songs about their success with the California Sober methods. Millions of people are searching for and struggling to find a new path to recovery that actually works. Those people are looking for the California Sober method of recovery.
