refugerecoverycenters.com Having a support system is one of the key reasons why life in #recovery gets better everyday. Here’s our #Sangha on a recent retreat in Joshua Tree. It was a weekend of #meditation, #mindfulness, connection and dancing… lots of dancing.

“It's easy to hate and point out everything that is wrong with the world; it is the hardest and most important work in one's life to free oneself from the bonds of fear and attachment.” @noah_levine, Dharma Punx: A Memoir

“I truly believe that compassion will come to us with time & intentional effort in the direction of caring about our pain. Our hearts need to be guided in this direction, however. One of the best ways to train our heart/mind is through the discipline of meditation.” Noah Levine

“Pain is not wrong. Reacting to pain as wrong initiates the trance of unworthiness. The moment we believe something is wrong, our world shrinks and we lose ourselves in the effort to combat the pain.” @TaraBrach, Radical Acceptance: Embracing Your Life With the Heart of a Buddha

Our attachment-based approach to #recovery from substance abuse is rooted in science and #Buddhist teachings. Without support and stability in relationships, people inevitably turn to old methods of controlling emotions and self-soothing through substances. #TakeRefuge

refugerecoverycenters.com At first getting #sober seems unthinkable. It seems confusing that there could be anything beyond the cycle of suffering we’ve been living in. But in the end we know that no one can #recover for us, that we have to do the work.

Our Transitional Living offers residents an opportunity to build a supportive community for themselves and their recovery. When our residents eventually integrate back into their lives, they find themselves more level headed with a stronger sense of self and a new community.

We have a very human need to build community, and one approach is the practice of breaking bread together. At our treatment centers our chef, Mau Raynor, turns the preparation of nourishing and balanced comfort foods into an art form. refugerecoverycenters.com

refugerecoverycenters.com Getting sober does not mean the party is over, it’s an opportunity for life to truly begin. We utilize Buddhist informed addiction treatment to empower people to honor themselves, be present for each moment, and to let go. This is life in technicolor.
