Sky High View of Recovery
One of the unique activities at Cirque Lodge involves our private helicopter. Residents are given a chance to experience and enjoy private flights into the local mountains. The beauty of nature is discovered in a whole new light, high in the air. The helicopter itself is one of the finest in luxury flying machines. It’s a safe and comfortable experience in itself. It gives the residents of Cirque Lodge a therapeutic experience that is different than standard forms of addiction treatment.
There is a point in each flight where the helicopter lands in a remote mountain location. These mountain locations are only possibly reached by air. They are quiet and serene places, literally untouched by man. In this quiet place, those in recovery have a chance to reflect and meditate. The beautiful surround of nature can provide the ideal backdrop for connecting with a higher power.
Throughout the flight, drug rehab clients experience many wonders of the mountain. It is not uncommon to see much of the wildlife that makes these mountains their home. The beauties of the mountain change depending on the time of year. From flowers of spring, to the changing leaves of autumn, the wonders of nature are a sight to behold. For those in treatment for alcohol and drug addiction, this experience can be a focal point for their time spent in drug rehab and on into recovery.
