My Approach to Guiding and Supporting Private Clients on the Path to Recovery...

As your sober companion, my primary objective is to offer you gentle and loving guidance, support, and safety as you embark on your journey towards sobriety. I firmly believe that each person is unique and requires a personalized approach to recovery. To achieve this, I have developed a distinctive set of strategies that incorporate my organic style of breath, movement, and cold water immersion (if permitted).

*Personalized Support: I understand that no two individuals are the same, and their paths to recovery will differ. That's why I take the time to get to know you on a personal level, to understand your specific and unique needs, triggers, and challenges. By tailoring my approach to your unique circumstances, I can provide you with the most effective guidance and support.

*Flexibility: Adaptable scheduling to accommodate your busy life.

*Compassion: A non-judgmental and empathetic approach to help you feel comfortable and supported.

Organic Approach

*Breathing: One of the techniques I utilize in my approach is simply breathing. By focusing on your breath, you can become present enough to manage stress, anxiety, and cravings. Through various breathing exercises, I will guide you on how to come into your own method of breathing, which will allow you to calm your mind, increase your self-awareness, and go deep within.

*Movement: Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery process. Engaging in movement therapy, such as yoga or tai chi, can help you reconnect with your body and improve your overall well-being. I will guide you through gentle exercises and mindful movements that promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance your physical and mental resilience.

*Cold Water Immersion: If permitted and appropriate for your situation, cold water immersion can be a powerful tool in not only your recovery journey, but your life journey as well. Cold water therapy has been shown to boost mood, increase alertness, and improve overall mental health. I will introduce you to safe and controlled methods of cold water exposure, helping you harness its benefits for your well-being.

*Emotional Support: Recovery can be an emotional rollercoaster, and having someone by your side who understands and empathizes with your struggles is invaluable. As your sober companion, I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to express your feelings, fears, and triumphs. Together, we will navigate the emotional challenges of sobriety and work towards healing and growth.

Remember, my role as your sober companion is to guide and support you throughout your journey towards sobriety. By incorporating personalized strategies, such as breathwork, movement therapy, and cold water immersion (if appropriate), I aim to empower you with the tools and techniques necessary for a successful recovery.
