An Online Course Presented Together by Renewal Lodge and Mindfulness In Recovery® Institute
Are you looking for a way to enhance your recovery journey, support a loved one pursuing a life of sobriety, or gain valuable skills as a treatment professional?
We have good news for you.
Renewal Lodge has teamed up with the Mindfulness In Recovery® Institute to provide an in-depth online course designed to empower individuals from all walks of life to cultivate resilience, reduce stress, and live with greater purpose and connection through mindfulness.
Note: This course is not for people seeking residential treatment, but is designed for people already firmly established in meaningful recovery.
Key Benefits: Developing the Seven Skills of MIR®
At its core, Mindfulness in Recovery® enhances seven essential skills that align with the four pillars of mental health: Awareness, Insight, Connection, and Purpose. By developing these skills, participants can experience a range of benefits, including:
- Improved attention, mental stability, and focus
- Greater emotional balance and resilience
- Increased sense of meaning and purpose in life
- Deeper insight into personal habits and patterns, enabling healthier choices
The course aims to equip you with the tools of mind needed to navigate the challenges of recovery more effectively while building a solid foundation for lasting well-being.
Growing Understanding for Family & Friends
In addition to supporting individuals in recovery, this eight week mindfulness course also offers unique benefits for family members and friends who want to grow their understanding and support of an established practice.
Family and friends will receive a specialized guidebook designed to help them navigate the challenges of supporting a loved one in recovery.
Continuing Education Credits for Treatment Professionals
The Mindfulness in Recovery® online course offers a valuable opportunity for clinicians, therapists, and addiction treatment professionals to enhance their skills and knowledge in the field of mindfulness-based recovery support.
By completing the course, professionals can earn 36 NAADAC (National Association for Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors) Continuing Education Units (CEUs), which are recognized by many state licensing boards and professional organizations.
Additionally, completing the course serves as a prerequisite for the Mindfulness in Recovery® certification course, which offers a more in-depth training for professionals seeking to integrate mindfulness techniques into their clinical practice.
