12 STEP PROGRAM

At Jeewan Disha Foundation, we are dedicated to supporting individuals on their journey to recovery from addiction and substance abuse. Our 12-Step Program is a cornerstone of our comprehensive treatment approach, offering a structured and supportive pathway to sobriety. Based on the principles of mutual support and personal accountability, this program has helped countless individuals reclaim their lives.

Key Features of the 12-Step Program

The 12-Step Program at Jeewan Disha Foundation includes the following essential elements:

1. A Structured Approach

The program follows a clear and structured format that guides participants through twelve steps designed to address various aspects of addiction and recovery. Each step builds upon the previous one, promoting continuous growth and healing.

2. Peer Support

One of the most powerful aspects of the 12-Step Program is the sense of community and peer support. Participants share their experiences, challenges, and successes, fostering a supportive network of individuals who understand the journey of recovery.

3. Professional Guidance

While peer support is crucial, our program is also facilitated by experienced addiction counselors who provide professional guidance and support. These experts help participants navigate the steps and offer insights and strategies to enhance their recovery process.

4. Holistic Integration

We integrate the 12-Step Program with other therapeutic approaches to address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This includes:

• Individual counseling
• Group therapy
• Family counseling
• Yoga and meditation
• Nutritional counseling

5. Accessibility

We offer both inpatient and outpatient options to ensure that individuals at different stages of recovery can access the support they need. This flexibility allows participants to engage with the program in a way that best fits their lifestyle and commitments.

The Twelve Steps

Our program closely follows the traditional twelve steps, which are adapted to meet the needs of our participants:

1. Admitting Powerlessness: Acknowledging that one cannot control their addiction and that their life has become unmanageable.
2. Believing in a Higher Power: Coming to believe that a power greater than oneself can restore sanity.
3. Deciding to Turn Over Control: Making a decision to turn one’s will and life over to the care of this higher power.
4. Conducting a Moral Inventory: Making a searching and fearless moral inventory of oneself.
5. Admitting Wrongdoing: Admitting to the higher power, oneself, and another person the exact nature of one’s wrongs.
6. Being Ready for Change: Becoming entirely ready to have the higher power remove all defects of character.
7. Asking for Removal of Shortcomings: Humbly asking the higher power to remove these shortcomings.
8. Making a List of Amends: Making a list of all persons one has harmed and becoming willing to make amends to them all.
9. Making Amends: Making direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
10. Continuing Personal Inventory: Continuing to take personal inventory and promptly admitting when one is wrong.
11. Seeking Spiritual Growth: Seeking through prayer and meditation to improve conscious contact with the higher power, praying for knowledge and the power to carry it out.
12. Helping Others: Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, carrying the message to others and practicing these principles in all areas of life.

Supportive Activities

In addition to the core steps, our program includes various supportive activities:

• Regular Meetings: Scheduled meetings where participants can share and support each other.
• Workshops: Educational workshops that provide tools and strategies for managing addiction.
• Mentorship: Opportunities for participants to become mentors and support newcomers in their recovery journey.
• Social Activities: Organized events that promote a sense of community and healthy social interaction.

Family Involvement

We recognize the importance of family support in recovery. Our program includes family counseling sessions and workshops to help families understand addiction and learn how to support their loved ones effectively.

Continuing Care

Recovery is an ongoing process. Our 12-Step Program includes aftercare planning and ongoing support to help participants maintain their sobriety and continue their personal growth after completing the program.
