Part memoir, part ‘how to’, The Little Green Book will assist marijuana users, their loved ones, and those working with them in considering change. Michael Stratton is a therapist who fell in love with marijuana.

Gradually it began to eclipse his goals that he’d set for himself. Eventually he found it necessary to break up with marijuana. He began working with others who had faced the same dilemma, and then became trained by SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) in the latest evidence based practices in helping people change. Borrowing from practices as varied as several recent scientific studies, philosophy, and the Buddhist metaphor of The Hungry Ghost, the author weaves a rich tapestry for self-exploration and the possibility of change.
