More About the Author

"I gradually learned that an escape into the casinos helped me feel better because I didn't have to think about my problems. Then I gambled all my money away and my problems got even worse. At the end of the road, I became tired of being sick and tired. I picked myself up a few times, and slowly began to learn my lessons. I have committed myself to helping save you from the same mistakes I made, so I pass them along and make myself accessible to you. I won't judge or tell you where you need to be. It's your life. You decide."

Numb No More: Simple Solutions to Achieve Freedom from Habits and Addictions

I started reading Ms. Kim Pottle's book, Numb No More, just a few days before I received a devastating emotional blow. After reading only the first two chapters, I was able to put her message and tools into practice. Rather than carrying the pain of that blow around with me for weeks and months, as I would usually do, I was able to acknowlege it, trust myself, and release that pain completely, allowing myself to move forward feeling stronger and more powerful. Ms. Pottle's book is a blessing to anyone with or without an addiction!

You know, I tell myself... one day at a time, one moment at a time.

After reading Numb No More, I realized all of the inspirations that have emerged from my personal stepping stones.

You see, I consider myself "normal" and free of addictions and yet, there LIES MY HABIT.

We ALL have something or someone we become addicted or attached to which leaves us open for dependence.

then, Numb No More WILL fill that need.

"It's easy to tell the difference when you have felt the heaviness of a miserable feeling. That's why our problems are our gifts. They help us live more fully when we choose..." Kim Pottle

Numb No More by Kim Pottle

I purchased this book several weeks ago for something to read. I didn't consider myself as having any Addictions. I don't gamble, don't drink, and didn't have any negative habits that I could think of. But, as I read the book, I realized that I have many Addictions. I have the addition of taking several naps a day and tell myself that it is just resting. As I read more, I thought about my life over the years and how WORK in television was a very big addiction for me. I have spent as many as 130 hours in a week at the TV station - and did this many times. The family came second, or third, or forth. This book has made me to look more at me and what I am now doing every day and to see the additions I have in all areas of my life. It is a book that I have purchased several copies to send to people that I know that have additions in their life - like gambling.

This book and information should be in everyone's collection of "have read " books. It is not only for the gambler with an addiction, but everyone who has any type of addiction to something. It is also a book to have extra copies of to pass on to friends and family that need help.

Thank You Kim....A. Wood Tucson, AZ.
