The Recovery method is a compilation of many simple yet practical coping techniques. To gain inner peace, users learn how to change the way they react to people and situations over which they have no control. They also learn how to identify and manage negative thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviour that can lead to emotional distress and stress- related physical symptoms. This self-help technique is learned through studying the Recovery literature, regular attendance at the weekly meetings, and, above all, daily practice.
