The Setting

The Reality Recovery Program is a model for molding a well-balanced individual. Those who have a desire to change, need to modify their mind and body. Our students begin their day with a nutritious breakfast, and medications if prescribed. This is typically followed by an hour of exercise and an hour of Yoga.

The balance of the morning involves meditation and reflection. Gratitude will get you a long way here. In addition, some of our clients enjoy starting their morning with a 7am 12-Step meeting to start their day off on the right track. Although this is not mandatory, we find that this meeting is beneficial to all that make it a part of their daily routine.

Lunchtime includes a light meal and either a 12 Step Meeting or personal time. Afternoons are open for time in the pool or at the beach, employment/service opportunities, time with their sponsor, therapy sessions or just spending time with the other clients.

Evenings include a family style dinner, followed by a 12 Step Meeting. A house discussion follows each 12 Step Meeting, so be prepared to be interested in what you have just heard and where you have been. We want our students to give us their honest feedback of what they hear in the meetings. This is critically important for the student to understand the concept of a 12 Step Recovery program. Our previous students have found our suggestions on how to make the most out of a 12 Step fellowship have been a big help in their recovery process. And there are many (over 300) different meetings in the Palm Beach County community.
