Music inspires us every day. It can set a mood or enhance a feeling. We use music when we are happy, sad, to teach kids, and so much more. It seems perfect that Recovery Unplugged would use music to help with recovery! When I learned about their songwriting contest, I was more than happy to spread the word. I have many friends who are naturally talented writing poetry and music and this would be a great chance for them to show their stuff. I also have had friends who have struggled with addiction and I know how challenging it is to stay clean. Recovery Unplugged understands everyone has a unique personal history and set of circumstances. Their treatment is tailored to ensure the most effective approaches and best opportunity for recovery. Clients are able to use music as a catalyst to start to break down the barriers we build through their lives and their addictions.
