Rehab Program in Puerto Vallarta | A Different Approach

A Different Style makes all the Difference!

There are so many different rehab programs to choose from where it can become difficult in selecting which rehab is right for you.  So many people arrive to rehab and cannot wait to leave.  They get trapped into thinking that there is a quick fix.  How can any addict get much from the experience if they're only counting the days?  I don't think you can have an open mind when you're miserable, hence the reason why I fell in love with our facility in Puerto Vallarta, MX. 

Puerto Vallarta is a place where most people go for vacation, so to create a Drug & Alcohol Rehab at a beautiful destination was the perfect answer to give guests the ability to connect not only to their healing from addiction, but also to the beauty that is wrapped around them.

There will never be more then 4 guests at our facility.  You will receive private, and individual attention and have the opportunity to experience the same things as you would on a vacation.  Adventure Therapy, Counseling, Detox, Nutrition, along with a Personal Trainer is all a part of our program to get sober and healthy.  The better you feel, and the more you are enjoying your experience, the better the chances are that you will keep an opened mind and learn much more about your addiction.

Relapse is talked about as being inevitable, but we believe that once you begin to enjoy being clean and sober, you will realize that life without drugs and alcohol is much greater!!!

It's time to leave all distractions and go on a wellness journey.

Filling the Void | How | New to Recovery

Being in Recovery is a different experience for all of us. For me, alcohol was a great solution to life's problems. It would calm my anxiety, wipe away the fears that stimulated my mind, and at the same time it was an escape from my reality. I believe the road of Recovery gives you the opportunity to go deeper inside the psyche and find what really brings us joy and inner peace. Those of us who have crossed into the depths of addiction found the addiction to be a best friend of sorts, a way of being so the substance could give us comfort. Without our best friend by our side, we now have to come to a place of understanding of what kind of 'void' that substance was filling. Why have I become so out of control, and what can I do to Overcome? 12-Step Meetings, Church, Fitness, Nutritional Changes, or Therapy? All the above or something much more? Whatever it is, our life will take a drastic change from the stimulus life we lead before, but once we find our alternative method(s) of positive healing, what we accomplish will surely be a different life, much healthier, more relaxed and hopefully a little calmer. We need to "let go" and no longer fight against our new path of existence. We need to no longer look at the mistakes weave made because the past is the past and the future has not been written. Learn to enjoy the journey of recovery. Meet new people, find what inspires you, take care of your body. After all we've survived! It's time to re-write your story.

Addiction Transformed into Cancer.

Every CELL in your body has it's own INTELLIGENCE and is able to listen to what you are thinking, feel what you are expressing, and become what you are consuming.

One of the most known ADDICTIONS that TRANSFORM into CANCER is Cigarette Smoking & Tobacco Chewing, which can turn into lung, throat or lymph-node cancer. Alcoholism & Drug Abuse can turn into liver, colon/rectum, or pancreas cancer. Other types not mentioned here could occur as well. My intention is not to give a comprehensive list.

Besides Substance Abuse, repetitive negative thinking, and suppressing negative emotions such as anger, resentment, and hatred, and even milder emotions such as irritation, annoyance, or frustration can easily MANIFEST into ILLNESS. This illness can be physical, emotional, or spiritual.

When you are in a STATE OF BALANCE- mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically- illness simple can't settle in your body. Most people have not been taught how to deal with stress and negative thinking, and don't know how to live a BALANCED LIFE.

This is where MOFFITT WELLNESS RETREAT in LUXURY STYLE, comes into the picture. IT IS TIME to take 1, 2, 3, or even 4 weeks off to BRING BALANCE back into your life and not only BEST ADDICTION, but the possibility of cancer as well.

Your Wellness Journey can BEGIN by CALLING: 1-713-907-5632. Wether you need to heal from addiction or need to bring homeostasis back into your life, call today, you deserve to save your life.

Am I an Addict?

Only you can answer this question.

This may not be an easy thing to do. All through our usage, we told ourselves, “I can handle it.” Even if this was true in the beginning, it is not so now. The drugs handled us. We lived to use and used to live. Very simply, an addict is a person whose life is controlled by drugs.

Perhaps you admit you have a problem with drugs, but you don’t consider yourself an addict. All of us have preconceived ideas about what an addict is. There is nothing shameful about being an addict once you begin to take positive action. If you can identify with our problems, you may be able to identify with our solution. The following questions were written by recovering addicts in Narcotics Anonymous. If you have doubts about whether or not you’re an addict, take a few moments to read the questions below and answer them as honestly as you can.

  1. Do you ever use alone? Yes  No 
  2. Have you ever substituted one drug for another, thinking that one particular drug was the problem? Yes  No 
  3. Have you ever manipulated or lied to a doctor to obtain prescription drugs? Yes  No 
  4. Have you ever stolen drugs or stolen to obtain drugs? Yes  No 
  5. Do you regularly use a drug when you wake up or when you go to bed? Yes  No 
  6. Have you ever taken one drug to overcome the effects of another? Yes  No 
  7. Do you avoid people or places that do not approve of you using drugs? Yes  No 
  8. Have you ever used a drug without knowing what it was or what it would do to you? Yes  No 
  9. Has your job or school performance ever suffered from the effects of your drug use? Yes  No 
  10. Have you ever been arrested as a result of using drugs? Yes  No 
  11. Have you ever lied about what or how much you use? Yes  No 
  12. Do you put the purchase of drugs ahead of your financial responsibilities? Yes  No 
  13. Have you ever tried to stop or control your using? Yes  No 
  14. Have you ever been in a jail, hospital, or drug rehabilitation center because of your using? Yes  No 
  15. Does using interfere with your sleeping or eating? Yes  No 
  16. Does the thought of running out of drugs terrify you? Yes  No 
  17. Do you feel it is impossible for you to live without drugs? Yes  No 
  18. Do you ever question your own sanity? Yes  No 
  19. Is your drug use making life at home unhappy? Yes  No 
  20. Have you ever thought you couldn’t fit in or have a good time without drugs? Yes  No 
  21. Have you ever felt defensive, guilty, or ashamed about your using? Yes  No 
  22. Do you think a lot about drugs? Yes  No 
  23. Have you had irrational or indefinable fears? Yes  No 
  24. Has using affected your sexual relationships? Yes  No 
  25. Have you ever taken drugs you didn’t prefer? Yes  No 
  26. Have you ever used drugs because of emotional pain or stress? Yes  No 
  27. Have you ever overdosed on any drugs? Yes  No 
  28. Do you continue to use despite negative consequences? Yes  No 
  29. Do you think you might have a drug problem? Yes  No 

“Am I an addict?” This is a question only you can answer. We found that we all answered different numbers of these questions “Yes.” The actual number of “Yes” responses wasn’t as important as how we felt inside and how addiction had affected our lives.

Some of these questions don’t even mention drugs. This is because addiction is an insidious disease that affects all areas of our lives—even those areas which seem at first to have little to do with drugs. The different drugs we used were not as important as why we used them and what they did to us.

When we first read these questions, it was frightening for us to think we might be addicts. Some of us tried to dismiss these thoughts by saying:

“Oh, those questions don’t make sense;” Or,

“I’m different. I know I take drugs, but I’m not an addict. I have real emotional/family/job problems;”Or,

“I’m just having a tough time getting it together right now;” Or,

“I’ll be able to stop when I find the right person/get the right job, etc.”

If you are an addict, you must first admit that you have a problem with drugs before any progress can be made toward recovery. These questions, when honestly approached, may help to show you how using drugs has made your life unmanageable. Addiction is a disease which, without recovery, ends in jails, institutions, and death. Many of us came to Narcotics Anonymous because drugs had stopped doing what we needed them to do. Addiction takes our pride, self-esteem, family, loved ones, and even our desire to live. If you have not reached this point in your addiction, you don’t have to. We have found that our own private hell was within us. If you want help, you can find it in the Fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous.

“We were searching for an answer when we reached out and found Narcotics Anonymous. We came to our first NA meeting in defeat and didn’t know what to expect. After sitting in a meeting, or several meetings, we began to feel that people cared and were willing to help. Although our minds told us that we would never make it, the people in the fellowship gave us hope by insisting that we could recover. […] Surrounded by fellow addicts, we realized that we were not alone anymore. Recovery is what happens in our meetings. Our lives are at stake. We found that by putting recovery first, the program works. We faced three disturbing realizations:

  1. We are powerless over addiction and our lives are unmanageable;
  2. Although we are not responsible for our disease, we are responsible for our recovery;
  3. We can no longer blame people, places, and things for our addiction. We must face our problems and our feelings.

The ultimate weapon for recovery is the recovering addict.”

Going to Treatment Carries a lot of Anxiety...

Going to treatment for addiction can carry a lot of anxiety for everyone. Both for the addicted and their loved ones. The bridge from active addiction to recovery in a facility where the healing can begin is a very important step! It is also very eye opening to look at your life and wonder how did I get here? It was one of the things I asked myself, but I knew it didn't matter!

How I got here is just part of the story, moving forward is the key in doing this part in a healthy way, and the help of a therapist is a giant step. Most people that enter into a treatment center don't realize how bad their behavior has become and the effect it had on their life or their loved ones.

There's a big sigh of relief the second the decision is made to stop the chaos and begin a journey Drug and Alcohol free! Never, Never, lose hope in yourself or for a loved one battling addiction.

It is a very tough fight, and it is one that kills most people and ruins many life's. Embrace it! Be thankful for another shot at life and enjoy the process. It's not going to be simple but it's very rewarding!

As I tell everyone, there are thousands of recovery places to choose from, so make sure you do some research on your selection because this is the biggest step you will ever take!

What we have here at Moffitt Wellness Retreat is a Healing Community! A place where you simply learn how to live a Sober Life Style. This very skill will help you continue your journey of sober living once you return home.

A few words from Moffitt Wellness Retreat’s Founder, Roy Moffitt.

My personal journey – and a beautifully continuing one it is – turning toward a life of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual recovery led me to envision a sanctuary for others seeking release from the clutches of addiction and chaos to live the life we all deserve.

So, I am privileged to have assembled a team of like-minded professionals committed to providing the most comprehensive and targeted recovery centre possible, one based on the latest recovery philosophies and practices, and in the most supportive and comfortable atmosphere.

The road to addiction recovery varies, but inevitably starts with the detoxification of the chemically ravaged body. From the moment a Moffitt guest arrives, our medical team evaluates and monitors this critical stage, ensuring safety and comfort through 24hour per day care with emphasis on rest, nutrition and fitness. Within days, the mental fog begins to lift.

When the detoxification process is complete, guests move to our main facility where the emotional and spiritual recovery from addiction begins. Here, you begin seeing our therapist and participating in daily group meetings as they rediscover confidence and passion for life through a myriad of self-directed and Centre-based activities.

Moffitt Wellness Retreat encourages simultaneous healing of the clients loved ones.Trained staff members, most of which have mastered their own recovery, are on hand to assist and initiate healing the pain and damage that addiction has caused between yourself and your loved ones.

We believe everyone’s journey into addiction – and out of it – is different, but its common problem is self-defeating behavior, not a moral deficiency. Our mission is to help our guests build a recovery foundation in our unique environment. Everyone deserves the opportunity to regain a happy, healthy and fulfilling life and our goal is to provide the tools to make that a reality.

Disconnect from chaos. Connect to serenity.
