The PWI Recovery approach deals with addiction as a cultural, family and social problem.<\/strong> \u00a0In order for the addict to consider change, there needs to be somewhere for them to change and an environment where they can sustain the change within each aspect of their life. There needs to be a core team that supports the change within the addicts life: business, family, social, spiritual and play.<\/p>\n Addiction is a result of both nature and nurture, genetics and environment. The biological functions can often be redirected easily, when the addict is within a functional environment.<\/strong> If the addict remains (or returns after treatment) to a dysfunctional environment, they will revert to their old was of controlling and managing the dysfunction, in order to survive.<\/p>\n Many people in addiction resist change as they fear “who will be there when I change?” This is why the PWI Recovery approach builds a core team around the recovering person before they enter the process<\/strong>… to invite them in, and sustain, maintain and grow the culture from all perspectives, so there is no where the recovering person wants or needs to hide.<\/em><\/p>\n Intervention<\/strong> is a process of recognizing the true cost of a way of living:<\/p>\n Recovery<\/strong> is based on four key principles of living life:<\/p>\n Reality\/Community<\/strong> based on:<\/p>\n Aftercare<\/strong> that is integrated into all aspects of life is the key to long-term sobriety:<\/p>\n Although it is the sole responsibility of the recovering individual (Recovery Buddy Participant) to decide and direct their own life, it is the responsibility of the individual to choose and select the community<\/strong> (environment) in which they will live. This environment needs real consideration as it will define the greatest influence on long-term sobriety, both physical and emotional, i.e. to create their support team community.<\/p>\n Once the Intervention – Treatment – Aftercare Team (Recovery Buddy Team) has been established and defined, and the recovering addict has selected and joined the team, they are effectively stepping out of intervention and into recovery.<\/p>\n In most cases, the Recovery\/Treatment Process requires a Retreat for the whole Recovery Buddy Team.<\/p>\n In many cases there is an allocated time between the Intervention and Recovery Retreat (a qualification period), in which a routine is designed and maintained in order for the recovering alcoholic addict to prove ability to participation and willingness to apply. This routine includes: assignments are allocated in a sequential order, as well as other activities toward maintaining physical and developing emotional sobriety.<\/p>\n Each assignment is monitored daily by a Certified Facilitator as a Buddy Coach. All sessions are recorded and available for viewing by the Recovery Buddy Team to watch and understand the process.<\/p>\n Prior to (and following) the Retreat, the Recovery Buddy Team Member’s Schedule will include: <\/strong><\/p>\n Prior to the Retreat, the Recovery Buddy Participant will<\/strong>:<\/p>\n –> Inspirational eMod Books, eMod Videos, Movies and more<\/strong>, are often assigned to set the mood and support recovery principles and lessons.
