Description The Red Road to Wellbriety utilizes a 12 Step approach to addictions recovery based in and culturally appropriate to the ways of life of Native and aboriginal societies. The book is structured like the Big Book of AA and it is sometimes referred to as the Indian Big Book. There are 12 chapters of sobriety teachings followed by 18 personal recovery stories by Native Americans and First Nations people. In addition there is a Preface, Introduction, and a lead-in called Our Native Elders Speak addressed especially to Native people who want to be free and clear of alcohol and other drugs. The word Wellbriety means to be both sober and well. The goal of The Red Road to Wellbriety is to take an individual from alcohol and drug abuse and misuse, through recovery and sobriety, and on into the healing, wellness and well-being that traditional tribal societies lived by.
