From the River by Joe Booth PDF Summary

Book Description: From the River is written from an insider's perspective to address the issue of substance abuse among adventure athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. While there are numerous books written about recovery, very few that speak directly to the heart and soul of adventure athletes. From the River fills this gap. Outdoor enthusiasts seeking inspiration and practical guidance on how to win their battles against alcohol or drug abuse will appreciate the honesty, metaphors, and advice included in this guidebook for sobriety. Using whitewater kayaking as a metaphor for life, From the River is broken up into two sections - "Section I: Class Five Mind" and "Section II: From the River." In Section I, I call upon my background in psychology, education, and my struggle with substance abuse to offer science-based, practical advice on how to break the chains of addiction by developing a mindset based on five principles that every adventure athlete can relate to - Commitment, Courage, Humility, Flow, and Resilience. In Section II, I share lessons and anecdotes from my years on the river teaching cancer survivors and blind veterans how to whitewater kayak. This section also contains detailed and thrilling accounts of overcoming my mental challenges of paddling Class V whitewater. For many of the people rushing outside to find refuge from their stressful lives, addiction continues to be an anchor holding them down. As the sober movement becomes more mainstream, outdoor enthusiasts are looking for resources that they can relate to. From the River is written for this population by one of their own. A story of recovery and redemption, this book blends neuroscience, personal stories, and practical advice to the reader who is struggling with addiction.
