520 |a Spirituality is a significant factor in recovery from alcoholism, whatever definition of this condition one may use.

This allows greater engagement of the right-hemisphere "receptive mode," which is also associated with religious experience. A model of spirituality based on achieving a balance between hemisphere functions and modes of consciousness could provide a non-chemical alternative to excessive use of alcohol.
