Recovery is… Freedom.

A journey towards personal freedom through self-discovery and a return to wholeness. This restoration can be accomplished through finding balance of wellness in the body, mind, heart and spirit. “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” – Rumi
