We have developed a radically different alternative approach to addiction treatment that we have researched and implemented over the last 13 years. We saw mainstream statistics being around a 5 % recovery rate post primary inpatient addiction treatment process and wanted to use our skills to develop something different. Treating addictions can be like treating the bandaid and not the wound. It can be like treating the symptoms and not the cause. So much like a skilled surgeon or doctor we decided to go directly to the cause.
The world has changed and people are born into stressed environments. That is the nature of our culture and our world today. This sets us up to experience certain lacks in our basic human needs. Needs for safety, certainty, love and a deep sense of meaning and belonging. When we go without these basic needs we try and fulfil them in many other unhealthy ways.
STRESS AND ADDICTION TREATMENT
You may enjoy reading these insights from Mark L Lockwoods latest book that offers 10 steps out of addiction treatment by getting to the root of the personality causes and restoring the needs we once lost. When we experience the thoughts, feeling and perceptions beyond our personalities, things really start to change. We break open.
We are born into chaos. Problems of stress, chaos, uncertainty and disorder and darkness. More suicide even in childhood is epidemic. The research is out. What we now need to do from what has arisen is to start formulating a proper response. The structure we have put in place don’t work.
Anxiety and aggression show us there is something out of alignment in our lives. We have to ask what our symptoms are telling us about how we live our lives and what we can do about them. Respond don’t react for one. Society stresses people then stressed people stress society.
People are carrying trauma from childhood as far and as long as they can into adulthood. What we need to realise is you should not take it personally. Don’t take it personality should I say. This is why we also need a dynamic alternative approach to addiction treatment today.
Fear is the first master. The first teacher that teaches us necessary suffering. It teaches us how to survive in the stressed world we occupy. This stress, this world and even this self created personality is not you! Stress is no longer an isolated problem. Its societal. It is cultural.
The Paradigm Process as an Alternative approach to addiction treatment
The Paradigm Process offers people 10 Pathways back to sacred self that are workable, profound and easy to follow. Your sacred self is where your true values, emotions, desires and objectives reside. It is that part of you that is wanting more from life. It is that part of you that wants to actualise your full potential and grow personally and then heal the world. There are certain things that we learned in childhood that became our ego defence mechanisms. We developed what we call ego insurgents to protect us from a harsh and ever-changing world. We developed a controller insurgent. We also developed a judge a victim and a perfectionist insurgent. In fact we developed 10 ego insurgents that kept us safe from the world by creating a personality that became a personal reality for us all.
Through meditation practice, contemplation, through developing a new understanding of how you body-heart-mind works, through changing thoughts, belief, energetics and focus you can begin to have a full paradigm shift. Tackling each mask and removing it layer by layer and then replacing those masks with the highest energies, concepts, attitudes, traits and beliefs is the way through the 10 Pathways. Our message is don’t stay stuck and don’t wait. The work is waiting for us all. All we need to do is show up for ourselves.
Our Alternative approach to addiction treatment
We offer an alternative setting, and alternative addiction treatment program, and essentially an alternative mindset. Heavily armed with 23 years experience we provide a clinical, homely and powerful alternative to psychiatric clinics, drug rehab centres or mental health clinics. These interventions are not for everyone and many people flat out refuse to use those mainstream services, which is okay, not everything is for everyone. So dependent on what you need and what you want to achieve, at least there are more options opening up today. Hopefully options with far better results.
Far removed from a clinical setting clients get to keep their own autonomy, comforts and space. Our Depression Treatment Centre programs structure complements the private rooms we offer and ensures clients can work on themselves in the program, while still carrying out their work, studies, home or corporate responsibilities.
