A Typical Day In Our Treatment Programs
Morning
We like to begin our morning with a meditation beach walk. After breakfast, you will start your treatment day by meeting with your medical or clinical team or having personal time before the daily reflection group. After a short break, you’ll attend a variety of life skills groups, where you’ll explore issues surrounding addiction.
Afternoon
After lunch, we offer a variety of group sessions. Some of these include a health education group, training in mindfulness and brain processes, personal training, acupuncture, yoga, and nutritional training.
Evening
Following dinner, you’ll participate in on-campus or offsite support groups like 12-step meetings or 12-step alternatives. On the weekends, you’ll participate in groups, as well as spend time at our pool and fitness center. We also have fun, engaging activities like game night or movie night and sober outings. You’ll have personal time in the evening before bedtime.
