Until I decided I was willing to go to any lengths to stay sober and learn healthy tools to cope with my fears, I did not begin to heal, be present, and live life on life’s terms. SR provided an amazing foundation to my recovery process. During my stay as a resident, I met some of the most loving competent compassionate recovery staff and the most trustworthy safe fun group of residents, I could have ever imagined. I was able to be my true self without feeling as though I was being judged. SR’s program met my needs beyond expectations. Was everything perfect every moment of my stay? Of course not. But, it was perfect enough that I miss (just about) everyone I encountered, the daily therapies/activities, and the facility itself almost 2 yrs later of my stay in 2016. Again, SR helped lay the foundation for my recovery (with individual, small group therapy, alternative therapies: EMDR, somatic sensory experience, massage, yoga, equine, and the list goes on). It was then up to me to make a decision to continue on my journey of recovery and practice what I had learned at SR. I am proud to say I am more comfortable in my own skin then I have ever been in my life. SR was truly the jump start I needed to stay sober, save my life, not injure another human being’s life, mend relationships, and go to sleep at night/wake up without paralyzing/crippling/debilitating/agonizing fear of what lies ahead. I went through an extremely difficult rough patch shortly after leaving SR. I called SR asking for help. The CEO returned my call almost immediately with suggestions of how to proceed and move forward with my recovery. I took his suggestions to heart, and acted on them immediately. The staff has been by my side, when I’ve asked for help or wanted to make a connection ever since my stay. Honestly! ! I am still in contact with many of he residents that I met during my stay, with whom I’ll always consider a part of my extended family no matter what. The SR staff and residents know a huge part of me that most others don’t. They have accepted the good and not so good. Again, SR is not a instant/quick fix. I had to want to stay sober and healthy. So, I continue living with a daily personal recovery program that works for me. Much of it includes things that I learned about myself, from others, and from the multitude of therapies at SR. Recovery is a daily part of my life, and I embrace it. Everyone could be in recovery from something. SR is my place where it all began. And, for that, I will always be grateful.
I went to the Meadows in 1977 and it saved my life. At the time to save costs it offered non of the amenities it offers now but was strongly influenced by the 12 steps of AA. You were required to complete the first three steps which are the most difficult and stressed the importance of meetings individual and group counseling . and we had no free time to swim , horseback ride but we learned all about the disease of addiction. Most loving and professional group of people I had ever met. All were in recovery and had Masters in Addiction Counseling. One of the things I was impressed with the most was that there was no repeaters as the thinking was that it made recovery.more difficult. Hard to make money on that model. Almost 40 years later the promises are alive for me and my Meadows alumni husband. Thank My Higher power as I do not understand it for this place and all the people I met there it works if you work it is the truth
