Recovery and Relapse Prevention Program
The Help Heal Me mission combines the Recovery and Qigong Program, also known as the QiRecovery Program, focuses on developing Qi, recognized as life force energy to help addicts recover from chemical addictions.
The QiRecovery program offers education and training to clients in recovery from chemical dependency. Our services include education in relapse prevention, assessing the client’s old negative addictive patterns and creating new healing practices.
QiRecovery is an integrative program developed for individuals in all stages of recovery who seek to regain control of their personal destiny, to reduce stress, and to find renewed hope of change for a happier, healthier, sober and more creative life. Through the latest recovery research and practical applications of holistic healing practices each client will have their own dedicated recovery course.
The Qigong Recovery Program offers a thorough chemical dependency relapse prevention model originally developed for some of the nation’s top residential and outpatient addiction treatment programs. For this purpose, based on his years of training in both qigong and psychology, Randy Sugawara, Ph.D. has produced an innovative set of qigong and tai chi chuan exercises designed to help deepen the recovery process and alleviate the emotional and physical suffering with which substance abusers struggle.
