Guest House clients’ daily schedule and rhythm are centered on learning about the brain disease of addiction through various lectures/ discussions, individual and group therapies, spiritual direction, and alternative approaches such as tai chi, auricular acupuncture, and swimming, therapeutic massage, and exercise. Liturgy is celebrated on most weekdays, and weekend liturgy is experienced at one of the local parishes, when not possible at Guest House. Progress is closely monitored, and the leadership’s contact person is part of the treating team. Regular contact is maintained until the date for returning home is determined.
