The Healing Power of Love in Addiction Recovery

The Healing Power of Love & the Process of Addiction Recovery

Love is the key to opening recovery pathways. The healing power of love has no boundaries, has no walls, it holds no record of misgivings and it believes in second chances. Love is that quality that erases all prejudice and judgement and moves us to forgive, gives us a peace of mind and keeps us sane.

Love really has the power to transform us. It not only improves our overall health, but difficulties and challenges that come our way are much easier to deal with. Then it is our privilege and responsibility to share that love with others. The amazing power of love indeed has the strength to dissolve all of our emotional wounds and differences.

In the process, when you allow the power of LOVE in, it not only strengthens us in the present moment, but it makes us feel more confident about the future and allows us to come to terms with the past. Be open and willing to experience the healing that comes from the POWER of LOVE.

Positive Effects of Love in Addiction Recovery

When you allow the healing POWER of LOVE to enter, these are just some of the results:

A decreased likelihood of turning to substances to fill the “emptiness”
Treating your body in a way that sustains your health in terms of what you put into it and the way you treat others
Standing up for your values, saying yes and no with ease, based on your wishes and not what others may expect of you
You experience an enhancement of self-worth, in others you value yourself enough to only go after what YOU want.

Let yourself feel it. Let yourself know that through the POWER of LOVE, you can be transformed and healed.

Love sustains life and it is what remains after life

The team at Footprints would like to share a Loving Kindness meditation that when repeated, helps to make you feel more connected not only to yourself but to others and all of the things that are good for your mental, physical and spiritual well being.

May I be filled with loving kindness
May I be well
May I be peaceful and at ease
May I be happy

I graduated Footprints Beachside recovery center in Oct 23’ and am going on 9 months clean and sober. This wasn’t my first time being in treatment and i was having a hard time remaining sober for more than 2 months. If it wasn’t for this treatment center, the staff, and therapist, doesn’t matter… i wouldn’t be living the sober life i am today. Walking into Footprints was the best decision i have ever made for myself, from bowling to kayaking and going to the movies or outside AA meetings you don’t really feel like you’re in a treatment center but you also get the knowledge and tools that u need to stay sober.. the support the staff offers for the clients on a day to day basis was so helpful during my time there!!! I am forever grateful for my time at Footprints! i would suggest this place to anyone who struggles with addiction/alcoholism and is wanting to get better. Coming from Georgia was nerve wrecking but it was for the best choice for my own recovery. The foundation, sober connections and tools this rehab gave me to start my recovery journey is not something you’ll get somewhere else (in my experience)!

I went to Footprints for 120 days and it more then likely saved my life. The therapists are great and really care about the patients. There is a lot of freedom while in treatment but it is earned. All the staff are good people and really care and help. This was the place that finally got me over my hump. Thanks Footprints for all the help and support I have received.Glenn

footprints is like the disney world of rehabs. the clinical team truly cares about you & personalizes the course of treatment to every individual’s specific needs. i can honestly say i would not be alive today if it weren’t for this program, they gave me hope when i was hopeless & loved me when i couldn’t love myself. it’s more than just a paycheck for these people, they truly care about the clients & help cater to them in whatever way possible. 10/10 would recommend
