Synopsis
Updated in 2025!
The SMART Recovery 4-Point Program® Handbook is for those experiencing problems with substances like alcohol, opiates, tobacco, meth, and other drugs. It can also be used for activities that may become addictive like sexual activity, gaming, gambling, shopping, and eating. SMART is adaptable, too. It can help you change any behavior pattern that interferes with your life, job, or relationships.
For over 30 years, the non-profit SMART Recovery has been providing practical tools and supportive meetings for those working to gain independence from any addictive behavior. This newest edition of the 4-Point Program Handbook continues the legacy of SMART keeping up with the current cognitive behavioral science of behavior change with new tools to support self-compassion and interpersonal relationship skills. The language has also been refined to reflect the full range of experiences and goals that exist in our self-empowered approach to change.
You won’t be told what to do in this handbook. You will be offered a range of tools to consider as you work on the 4 Points:
1 – Building and maintaining motivation;
2 – Coping with urges;
3 – Managing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; and
4 – Living a balanced life.
This handbook can be used independently or as a basis for participating in SMART Recovery mutual support group meetings. It is supportive of medication-assisted treatment, harm reduction, and abstinence goals.
Don’t wait. Start your change journey today!
