Finding Answers on The Mountain
The experiential program at Cirque Lodge provides a unique approach to addiction treatment. In addition to effective therapies and treatments, the experiential program provides a therapeutic balance of rare and enjoyable activities. The experiential program takes full advantage of the Lodge’s mountain location. Nature and mountain based activities such as hiking, river rafting, fly fishing, mountain biking, and even snow shoeing in the winter provide their own unique forms of recovery from addiction.
The mountain provides its own elements of healing. For those who are overcoming drug and alcohol addiction, the mountain can be a sanctuary away from the conflicts of the world. In drug rehab, the mountain can be used for a number of things. Individuals can use it as a time to relax and focus. It can be used as a medium for connecting with a higher power. It can also be a place to wind down from dealing with the difficulties of overcoming addiction itself.
For some individuals, nature can provide the element of healing that can not be found with just therapy alone. At Cirque Lodge, we have seen this in many we have treated. That is why experiential activities on the mountain have become an integral aspect of the treatment we offer.
