Beat The Booze - Alcohol issues?

"These retreats will give you all the tools to help you overcome and understand the causes of Alcohol Dependence. It will provide the missing wisdom you will need to learn from this experience. Alcoholics are often very misunderstood. Traditional methods have a very low success rate. Look for a new approach."

This philosophy is now tried and true with so many great success stories coming from our programs. In the words of our founder, Wayne Parrott:

"All health issues are helped by learning to look at life through the bigger picture. We should think of life as a journey that is designed to help us learn lessons in wisdom. Learn to enjoy working on your issues because it is these important events that are educating us on important lessons in life. This approach is very differet to the traditional aa approach."

If you think you may be an alcoholic, or just can't remember the last day you did not have a drink. If alcohol is interfering with your family or work life then this retreat may be for you. Alcoholics anonymous is the traditional approach for alcohol. At aa unfortunatly the success rate is so low because they treat the alcohiolism, rather than the mind set behind alcoholics. Why is it that one person can drinkl when they choose and another it appears the alcohol chooses for them. This new approach will be explained in this program. It is its essence.

Our Beat The Booze programs commence twice monthly, (are limited  to four guests per program) and commence with our Weekend Intensive "Causes of Stress". This is not the aa approach to alcohol. This is completely new. After the weekend  your next two weeks are one on one. You may finish with group therpy which is optional. Your stay is 28 days as a minimum, (You may extend up to three months) and then your own Life Coach takes over and supervises your program.  Alcohol or cannabis are both dealt with here.

We are not religious based but use applied philosophy. All Alcohol programs may include PT's, Journey therapy, Nutrition Planning, Yoga, massage or any services that may be required in your specific case. In the second part of your first month you will then go through the group therapy program as well, to ensure the ideas are becoming second nature to you. Carol our General manager will meet with you weekly, with your life coach to ensure you are meeting your commitments, and will be your guide. 

Accommodation is only at our Staff residences, offsite, 1km from Fountainhead Retreat. You join the retreat community from 730am to 7pm returning home in the evenings to the staff quarters so that you will not be alone at any time, until you are ready for that step. 

Please note...

None of these programs are "woo woo", esoteric, or steeped in mysticism. No mysteries will be revealed. It is all about finding the reality that seems to be eluding those that suffer from Alcohol Dependence. If you are so used to being "the one with the alcohol issue" that is has become a large part of who you are, you may not be ready to take action and change just yet. If you are not ready to let go, then this program will not work for you. We give no gaurantees. Your attitudes must change.

This is the key to the treatment at Fountainhead. It is also a condition of your visit. If after the first few days of the program action and change does not seem possible at this time, Fountainhead reserves the right to terminate your visit and refund the difference of your payment less a fee for services rendered. We are only interested in helping those who are willing and ready to help themselves. We appreciate this is a strong stance. Alcohol issues need strong action to be improved.

Last day at Fountainhead

"This is my story I hope it inspires you, just as I found everything that this place is about inspired me I arrived here Friday the 13th of April, at that time I had depression and my spirit was so close to death, To me my life was a complete mess and by continuing on I was just ruining the lives of my family and anyone else that came to close. 

I had attempted suicide but in a last moment of clarity I realised my children would come home and find me, and then I stopped, waiting for a better time and place. 

I was continually self harming and would go days with out eating, I had totally withdrawn from all aspects of life. I came here as a last ditch effort to find something to beat the depression. Counselling and medication weren't working and it was painful to go on. After listening t a weekend of Greg Neville's lectures, I was still a mess and unable to see any glimmer of hope and afraid I would not be able to deal with the pain any longer. 

On day 5 the dark clouds around me hadn't moved and then I had a one-on-one with Greg and a journey therapy with beautiful Di and in a short time those clouds had completely vanished. It was an amazing feeling. During the rest of my time here I learnt many lesions in wisdom and how to appreciate my life however it unfolds. 

I can honestly say that because of this place, Greg philosophy, the journey therapies and life couching, my husband still has his wife, and three beautiful boys still have their mother and I am looking forward to learning wonderful lessons for the rest of my life. Thank you does not come close to the appreciation I have for all that is Fountainhead.

Thank you so much, Michelle, Di, Deb, and Katy and of course Greg. Your all so much more then just staff, you save lives. To my fellow guests who I shared my journey with thank you for your inspiration, your friendship and for the fun!!! My journey here is now done, my life has been enriched. I'm looking forward to loving what the future brings. 

Petrice, Cains LLD"

21 April  To all of Fountainhead. Thank you so much!
"Two and a half years ago my second child was born "traumatically" and now consequently has a disability called cerebral palsy. My life was shattered. 
Probably the most painful thing of all was that I thought my god had let me down. Questions about life & suffering overwhelmed me. The guilt was unbearable and debilitating. BUT after spending time at Fountainhead under Greg Neville's philosophies on wisdom, I have gained insight that has changed my life!
I believe now that my child represents the "miracle of creation"! I have learnt the true purpose of life, the true meaning of trust & self-worth! The secret of happiness! 
Now instead of being in pain I feel excited about the future & the journey. I love my life. 

Thank you. Fiona xxx"
