Inventory of Values

Consumer Empowerment

Recovery group members hope that you "try on" whatever fits, and make use of it where appropriate.  Simply ignore or discard whatever doesn't seem meaningful to you. 

          Healthy 12 step groups believe in the body-mind-spirit approach to health and life styles.  This philosophy teaches that the best solutions for transitions are the result from the joining of minds and hearts, sharing hope and knowledge freely shared for the betterment of all.

          Healing spiritually and emotionally, for some, means putting enough value on themselves to speak their truth and defend it.  Learn to honor your voice.  Group members asked themselves, "What stops us from speaking our truth?" They found that it was often hard to believe that what they had to say was worthwhile.  In the group setting, they gradually learned that others did indeed want to hear from them.

Use your voice, speak your truth, and allow your inner wisdom to bring more peace and clarity to the world.  All of our voices are needed to inspire a transformation and revitalization in capitalism.  As you strive to heal your life, you are participating in a larger vision: the healing of the planet.  Such participation is the essence of high-level wellness and true vitality.
