MANDALA is a Sanskrit word for “Healing Circle”. Here at Moffitt Wellness Retreat for Substance Abuse, we use Mandala Art Therapy to bring peacefulness, creativity, and joy.
Mandalas arise from the compelling human need to know our own inner reality, to align this knowing with our body’s wisdom, and to awaken in ourselves a sense of being in harmony with the Universe.
Mandala art therapy supports meditating, and is a pure representation of our deepest nature.
During the Holiday's it can be very difficult when you may have family and friends who love to celebrate with a celebratory substance (Alcohol, Weed, Opiates, Coke, Heroin, Ecstasy, etc). Holiday occasions can impose feelings of anxiety, depression, or even isolation because you have made profound life changes, where as everyone else still has the same lifestyle as before. Please read our TOP 5 TIPS in how to Relax within your Sober Holiday.
Relax and have a good time. Our thoughts control our response to the present moment, so do not create an uncomfortable situation when there isn't one. The moment you decide that you cannot have a good time sober, is when you have created that internal delusional of reality.
You know from the past, and through your own intuition, which parties are appropriate and which ones are not. Also, you can have fun by creating your own annual party where you can have control of what you accept and what you do not.
When Anxiety starts to kick in, take 3 deep breaths to relax. Then, go ask a friend to take a walk to connect on a more personnel basis. Create space between you and the heavy activity within the party. Create your own personnel party within the party.
This is the time to express all the wonderful new lifestyle changes that you have inherited as your own. Cook Healthy Pot Luck Dishes, and share information that can help them and their loved ones become healthier themselves. They will love you for it! Be an Example, and use your intellectual power to continue to create shifts within your circle.
Take this annual occasion to dedicate your sobriety to yourself and your loved ones. Reflect, and Smile on the hurdles you have overcome. Be an Example Towards Change and Growth. Even though people within your circle may not have an active addiction, most of us reflect on what changes (small or big) need to be made within our lives, and when loved ones see your success, it can give them the confidence to do the same.
There isn't a set period of time that applies to everyone when it comes to rehabilitation. Some addicts may need a 90-day stay at an inpatient treatment facility to truly find their path in recovery, whereas others may only need a 30-day program. It simply varies according to the addiction in question, the individual's history with addiction, dual diagnosis conditions, and the individual's specific physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs.
Studies find that those who spend longer amounts of time in rehabilitation programs achieve better results of long-term sobriety. This is because more time spent at a treatment facility means more opportunity to focus on the root causes behind the addiction. If these issues are effectively addressed, the individual is more likely to be able to resist temptations to relapse. Drug and alcohol addiction treatment doesn't end after the patient exits the rehabilitation program, regardless of the length of stay. Recovery is an ongoing process that will continue for the rest of the patient's life. Long-term recovery often involves ongoing therapy, both in individual and group form, and attendance at 12-step meetings (AA, NA). Some patients find other activities that support their ongoing recovery, such as meditation, yoga, exercise or hiking. It's important to note that many addicts don't achieve perfect, lifelong recovery with one rehab stay. Relapse should not be viewed as a failure; instead, it should be seen as an obstacle to overcome on one's lifelong journey to sobriety. Relapse is an opportunity to reevaluate one's path and get back into a program that offers the support and help needed to maintain sobriety. Many addicts complete more than one stay in rehab before they are able to find their footing in their recovery journey. It's all part of the process.
