Mindfulness Based Addiction Recovery

Mindfulness Based Addiction Treatement, or Mindfulness Based Addiction Revovery is an approach to healing addiction that blends eastern philosophical practices such as yoga and mindfulness meditation with conventional addiction treatment. Traditional western approaches to treatment have been based on cognitive behavioral approaches to treatment. The integration of yoga and mindfulness meditation into the  therapeutic process emphasizes training the mind and body to slow down and experience greater stillness. From within this stillness is the potential to discover the wisdom needed to find joy and move beyond addiction.

Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention can help clients who have achieved sobriety, prevent relapse through, a combination of traditional addiction relapse prevention skills combined with meditation practice and some yoga practice.

It is my intent to offer a Mindfulness Based Addiction Treatment and Relapse Prevention Program in the near future. The program will be located within  the Toronto region and offer traditional cognitive behavior therapy for addiction along with yoga, mindfulness meditation.
