There are many different kinds of alcohol and drug rehab programs. A few of them you'll find at large hospitals or clinics and are in many cases attached to the hospitals' psychiatric units, whilst others are integrated into stand-alone or private mental treatment or psychiatric institutions. There are also a lot of institutions where drug or alcohol treatment and rehabilitation are their specialty, thus offering treatment only to patients with alcohol or drug addiction problems. The first thing you have to ask yourself which of these types of drug rehab programs make you the most comfortable and then make a decision. Some people find the security in the medical establishment they find at a full service hospital will provide the best care. Others have the complete opposite view.

They have an essential fear of hospitals and medical environments. If this is the way you feel, you might want to choose one of the low-key private alcohol or drug rehab programs. An important consideration when choosing among drug or alcohol rehab programs is whether you are dually-diagnosed. Dual-diagnosis means that you suffer from a mental disorder in addition to your drug or alcohol addiction problem. If this is the case for you, then you should strongly consider those drug or alcoholism rehab centers that are connected with psychiatric hospitals or clinics. This alternative will give you the additional help that you need to manage both your psychological difficulties and your drug or alcohol addiction problem. All drug or alcoholism rehab programs provide a safe and secure place for you to fight your drug addiction problem.

However, different alcohol or drug rehab programs follow different treatment modalities. Some programs, particularly but not limited to those attached to full service hospitals may follow a medical model. You will be given medications to relieve the physical symptoms of detoxification. You may also be prescribed a drug alternative for example methadone. as methadone. Natural alcohol or drug rehab programs are also becoming extremely popular. These alternative programs uses private facilities and natural products to encourage healing from drug problems. The treatment Includes herbal medicines, natural breathing and meditation exercises as well as similar options. The natural or alternative technique is becoming more popular for its lack of using other drugs to treat drug problems. Most alcohol or drug rehab programs of today fall between the two extremes. Medical and psychiatric supervision are standard, yet many drug or alcohol addiction specialists are reluctant to prescribe medication unless required.

Guided imagery techniques and other mind-based strategies are commonly taught in drug or alcoholism rehab programs across the board. Recognizing the natural connection between mind and body, many alcohol or drug rehab centers have nutritionists and other specialists on staff. You will work together with a range of professionals and peer counselors who can help you address difficulties in many areas of your life that may have contributed to your drug addiction. Selecting an alcohol or drug rehab institution is not an everyday task and can be pretty tough. Addiction is an emergent though delicate issue that is difficult to handle the right way no matter how much you want to help yourself or a person you love. It is crucial to ally yourself with a good and sober relative or friend that you trust and go around and check out a few facilities. You will then see which alternatives are available for you so that you can choose the alcohol or drug rehab program that is best for you.

Join us for a special Mantra meditation workshop with Devamrita Swami, an Urban Monk, Yale graduate and author of several books. He has practiced and shared the knowledge of Mantra meditation in every continent of the world for nearly 40 years and will explain to us how to use these sound vibrations to attain extraordinary states of happiness.

Mantra meditation is a process for reviving our original, pure consciousness through the medium of transcendental sound. Everyone wants to be happy. Some seek happiness through family, career or social life. Others look for it in politics, arts, academia or natural healthy living. All of these endeavors represent our endless quest for satisfaction and pleasure. However, the basic problem in our search for happiness is that the sources of pleasure are limited and temporary. Mantra meditation enables us to expand our pleasure beyond present limitations. Through the mystical power of transcendental sound, inner happiness can be experienced directly because it operates beyond the boundaries of time and space and emanates from the core of our being.

This workshop will enable participants to experience the uplifting power of sublime sound through chanting and singing timeless Sanskrit mantras accompanied by ancient eastern instruments like table, mrdanga, harmonium and cymbals.
