Bridgetway Treatment Services’ Goal
Nobody plans to experience problems as a result of drugs and alcohol. Poor decisions happen every day, and if they do, they are usually followed by some type of negative consequences; we’re here to help.
No one intends to become addicted. The abuse of chemicals is similar to forgetfulness. It starts out innocently but in time becomes more difficult to find a way out. Not only do they work at best, in a temporary way; but actually end up adding to our pain. The difficulties that we sought to escape, have only become worse. The capacity to take in and enjoy the many wonderful aspects of being alive has been shut down. Eventually comes the knowledge and understanding of, “I have suffered enough and would like to have my life back.” Treatment for many is the changing of a lifestyle and mindset.
Bridgeway Treatment Services, LLC is a non-traditional program steeped in the principles of Mindfulness. With mindfulness one becomes fully alive and aware in each moment. Through this awareness one discovers oneself, the root of his or her suffering; and what is needed to live a life of balance and peace. Along with developing mindfulness through meditation, we can give you the tools necessary to live a life of balance and peace.
With each moment we choose our liberation or our destruction.
Mindfulness is a tool that can be used to experience the reality of self and the world; when one walks in mindfulness one walks in awareness. This awareness allows for true choice and self-determination of one’s life path. We can show you the path. The rest is up to you.
