Morals Change After Being In Drug Rehab
A common misconception of drug and alcohol rehab is that addicts are only there to handle their addiction to drugs and alcohol. However, a closer look into successful rehabs shows that addicts need to handle their entire lives in order to achieve permanent sobriety. This includes morals, past transgressions, their families and their role in society. When searching for a drug and alcohol rehab it is vital to ensure that all the above points are addressed.
Rehabs like Narconon Louisiana are able to maintain a 76% success rate because they ensure that, prior to completing the program; clients have covered all aspects of life during treatment. One way that Narconon Louisiana goes about this is by enrolling all clients in a course called The Way To Happiness. The Way To Happiness is a common-sense guide to life that provides a very simple and clear-cut picture of what type of morals and behaviors are expected of a sober productive member of society. This would include such things like “Do Not Steal”.
For most addicts, stealing was a way to get through life. It was the quickest way to the next high and the most obvious solution to the inevitable lack of money. However, while enrolled in this course, clients are able to look objectively at stealing and, through practical exercises, understand how stealing really effects others. This allows addicts to see more than just themselves. It forces them to put themselves in someone else’s position.
In addition to The Way To Happiness course, Narconon Louisiana utilizes several other techniques in order to achieve permanent sobriety with their clients. For instance, clients enrolled in this program participate in a sauna detoxification program. After several sessions in a dry heat sauna, clients are able to rid their bodies of the toxins and residue that is left behind from drugs and alcohol. This method of detoxification will prevent cravings. Often times, cravings are cited as the main cause of relapse. By the end of the sauna detoxification program clients have a body that is free from these harmful toxins and are able to focus on their lives, rather than be clouded over by drugs and/or alcohol.
For the most part, the one stable thing in an addict’s life is their family. Narconon Louisiana recognizes this and ensures that the facility is a family-friendly place where everyone is involved in the rehabilitation process. After all, the addict isn’t the only one that has been affected by the drugs and alcohol. Often times, families have no idea what they’re role in the recovery process is supposed to be, or how they are supposed to handle the devastation that they experienced while their loved one was on drugs or alcohol.
