ALCOHOL DEPENDENCY
Alcoholism. Most “experts” say this label is impossible to overturn and can only be managed for life . Our approach is very different to anything you may have considered before and focuses upon the reasons you started using alcohol to excess in the first place. When it comes to rehab with alcohol the conventional idea is to rehabilitate a person physically from its misuse and over use. Our aim is to increase a persons physical health, and at the same time examine the core thinking beliefs driving unwanted behaviour.once this is understood we offer safe and productive alternate coping mechanisms to upgrade thinking and address the problem at its core.
Alcohol issues are best addressed in a retreat environment. A health retreat is a very different environment to a “clinic”. Here at Fountainhead “rehab” goes far beyond a traditional detox or medical facility and we have assisted people back to a long term state of health for years. However, for long-term results you will need more than a physical change. A mental and emotional change is what is really required to be clear with alcohol.
What we do is a completely different approach. Most people that go to traditional Rehab facility will go between 5-15 times. This is because they only treat the physical. For real success you need a holistic physical and mental approach. That is what we deliver. To create this type of permanent change we ask you some serious questions. Why these choices? Was it stress; was it emotional issues, which led to the behaviour of overuse? Are you ready to address these issues? What regret or grief are you carrying that is holding you back?
All of these questions must be asked and addressed in order to create real change. This allows you to understand the beliefs behind your issue so you can be given the right tools in order to maintain an alcohol free life that is worth living.
The Fountainhead Method TM underpins all programs at the retreat. It is the most effective education method for stress management today. It is not esoteric it is a realty based philosophy that helps you understand your beliefs and subsequent choices. Journey Style Therapy and Mindfulness are also used in a supportive role for all Palladium Private Programs. These programs have helped over 4000 clients over almost a decade and many say are the most successful programs in Australia today.
Alcohol dependency is an incorrectly held belief based upon a person believing that the key to life relates to being able to spot the flaws in things. The alcohol dependent client will, in most cases, be cynical. As the alcohol dependency worsens, society’s message then reinforces this incorrect belief by stating that the alcoholism, “is caused by the alcoholic not being able to see, or act upon their own flaws”, this reinforcing the underlying cause.
Alcohol is the drug chosen because it generates a false benevolence, at least for a short time. The cynic needs to feel benevolent to escape or survive their own cynical thoughts. Unfortunately when caught in this pattern, the drink only really serves to keep the person functioning until they return to their negative view again. We believe this is why AA and such groups have a high failure rate.
The alcohol dependent client will be on the road to recovery when they start to see their life as a path with events, meant to help them accumulate lessons in wisdom. They will have moved their focus from how do they critique others, to what lessons they have learnt from events that constantly unfold.
