Mindfulness Based Acudetox
Acudetox is auricular acupuncture, or acupuncture of the ears. I was trained through NADA to apply up to five fine-gauge, sterilized, one-time use stainless steel needles just under the skin at designated points in each ear. The needles remain there 30-45 minutes. Ordinarily, groups of people sit together while undergoing the treatment. The procedure functions as an adjunct to addiction treatment. Some benefits reported by both clients and clinicians are improved program retention, a more optimistic and cooperative attitude toward the process of recovery, as well as reductions in cravings, anxiety, sleep disturbance and need for pharmaceuticals.

My Other Groups
The Body as Refuge
Mindfulness meditation practices for human beings whom have not experienced their bodies as a refuge, or whom no longer experience their bodies as a refuge because of the effects of traumatic experiences. We will learn to befriend the body and cultivate it as a resource for healing the effects of trauma and/or developmental and relational wounds. Groups will also involve creating safety and discussion.

Mindfulness Walking Meditation
This groups is also listed as "The Body as Refuge." That group was going to be indoors, but with Covid 19 that won't work. Walking meditation is an amazing way to befriend the body, mind, nature, and each other's presence. Walking together we begin to feel, see, hear and experience our environment and our own being in the spaciousness of our own awareness. There is a deep nourishing peace that we touch when experiencing life in the present moment. We will share our experience in verbal and non-verbal ways.
