Affirmations & Creative Visualization: A 365-Day Workbook for Lasting Change

How many times a day do you do something only to end up regretting it a moment or two later? How often do you struggle with negativity in your mind? If you are like most people, the answers to these two questions are “many” and “very,” respectively. To make a real, lasting change in your life, you need to change the patterns of your thoughts. That doesn’t mean you reach inside your head and poke around. No, it’s nothing that complex. Changing the patterns of your thoughts is as simple as telling yourself the right things, affirming the positivity, reminding yourself of what you want, visualizing what you want to happen in your life. Your mind is a simple thing in one way at least: it believes the images that you show to it. It reacts to those images emotionally and then seeks to manifest those images throughout your life. By working with The Affirmations & Creative Visualization Workbook, you will set yourself up for lasting change by signaling to your mind that this is what you want it to do. This book guides you toward a daily routine of written positive affirmations and visualizations that will change your life. You’ll keep a monthly log of accomplishments and review your entries periodically, getting a clear picture of just how far you have come in your journey. If you want to make a difference for yourself, only you can do it, but this workbook will help you along the way.

Enhancing Motivation for Change in Substance Abuse Treatment: Treatment Improvement Protocol Series (Tip 35)

This Tip is based on a fundamental rethinking of the concept of motivation. Motivation is not seen as static but as dynamic. It is redefined here as purposeful, intentional, and positive-directed toward the best interests of the self. Specifically, motivation is considered to be related to the probability that a person will enter into, continue, and adhere to a specific change strategy. This Tip shows how substance abuse treatment staff can influence change by developing a therapeutic relationship that respects and builds on the client’s autonomy and, at the same time, makes the treatment clinician a partner in the change process. The Tip also describes different motivational interventions that can be used at all stages of the change process, from precontemplation and preparation to action and maintenance, and informs readers of the research, results, tools, and assessment instruments related to enhancing motivation.
