On Gratitude is the adventures of a schizophrenic recovering from
tobacco who, ironically, is a chemical dependency counselor. This
photo recovery book playfully works with recovery issues like
unemployment, thinking errors, and addiction and shows that
gratitude and humor, despite a psychiatric disability, are
important in challenging the addictive logic of coyote, a powerful
representation of addiction that can pull the rug out from
underneath you when you are least expecting it. Jean uses a coyote
stuffed animal with clients to represent the addictive beliefs and
logic coyote represents to her. She has another doll that
represents honesty and sobriety or "smobriety" (from cigarettes).
When people want the cigarette or drink they can't refuse-that is
coyote's logic and reasoning. In her own journey she asks, "what is
the nature of that logic-what does the logic need and what is it
hungry for-is there a different way to get that need met?" She
challenges her own thinking errors with respect to cigarettes.
Nicotine is a cunning, baffling and powerful logic. She calls that
addiction coyote. Jean Marie Manthei is in recovery from tobacco
for six years. She has worked as a chemical dependency counselor in
Colorado Springs since 1993. Jean was motivated to write this book
to experience more positive outcomes. The pro-social aspect was
that perhaps others would be inspired. There are positive
outcomes-you have to create them. Visit the Author's website at:
