We do not believe
in the concept that alcoholism and addiction are diseases and worse, incurable
diseases. We don’t tell you or your loved ones that you have an incurable
disease. That is untrue and deprives you of hope. We talk about your healing by
focusing on living a new way of life.
We view addiction from a
different paradigm which states that
the cause of the dependency is either a chemical imbalance, unresolved life
experiences, or beliefs held that are inconsistent with realty, an
inability to manage current conditions, or a combination of these causes.
Furthermore, we believe that the symptoms are merely the effects that have manifested as
a result of physical, psycho-emotional and spiritual conditions, all of which can be healed. Our goal is to motivate,
educate and empower our
housemates to rebuild their
self-confidence and to give them the tools that empower them to manage their
new way of life. This new sense of empowerment and self-worth, gives our
housemates the ability to create the new kind of enhance life which they want to
live based on healthy choices that makes their life worth living beyond their wildest
dreams.
Philosophy
We motivate, educate and empower our
housemates to
choose a more healthy way of living life and show them how to create the life
they really want to live. We take a holistic approach to addiction,
Body-Mind-Spirit. Our philosophy
is based on respect and compassion. Although addiction has
common characteristics and behavior patterns associated with it, we treat each
housemate as unique.
Our
Objective
What is important is what you are going to accomplish while you are here.
Our major goal is to support each other in the healing process of
beginning a long-lasting new way of life. We are all here to gain the tools
necessary for a lasting success through life’s journey. We do not perpetuate a
revolving-door type of approach because our success
is enhanced by your success.
Living Environment
The comfortable and casual living setting reduces the feeling of a
structured environment, provides housemates
with healthy amounts of freedom and personal attention. This living environment is set up as a holistic
community where housemates learn to live life in a new way.
