New Heights with Alcohol Rehab
One of the unique activities at Cirque Lodge involves our private helicopter. Cirque Lodge has an EC130 Eurocopter that is used exclusively by the residents. It is a luxurious quiet and safe flying machine. When clients are working on their third step of the 12-step program, they are given the opportunity to achieve new heights with a helicopter flight. The third step focuses on turning over the problems and issues of addiction to one’s higher power. These helicopter flights take in the sights of the surroundings near Cirque Lodge. Many of these views can only be seen from this vantage point. It is unique activities such as this that help those in alcohol and drug rehab find vital spiritual experiences.
During this flight, the helicopter lands at a remote mountain location. Residents have the chance to hike along mountain peaks and experience the healing of the mountain. Some quiet time is observed where residents in alcohol rehab can go find a spot of their own and do some meditation. In this quiet setting, residents can have experiences in taking the necessary actions to achieve their third step. Residents are invited to leave something on the mountain. Some leave promises to their families. Others make the decision to change. Such experiences can be the means to an internal shift and a change from addiction to recovery.
