Narconon Colorado: A Path to Lasting Recovery

Located in Fort Collins, Colorado, Narconon Colorado – A Life Worth Saving offers a comprehensive residential treatment program for individuals seeking freedom from drug and alcohol addiction. This facility provides a structured environment focused on addressing the underlying issues of substance abuse and equipping participants with the skills necessary for long-term sobriety. The program is distinct in its approach, utilizing a non-medical, drug-free methodology designed to eliminate drug residues from the body, restore mental clarity, and provide life skills education.

The Narconon Program Components

The journey through Narconon is segmented into several key steps, each contributing to the participant’s physical and mental rehabilitation. The initial phase focuses on drug withdrawal, providing 24/7 care and natural techniques to help ease the discomforts associated with quitting substance use. This is followed by the New Life Detoxification program.

New Life Detoxification

This unique component involves a precise regimen of moderate exercise, nutritional supplements, and time in a low-heat sauna. The goal is to help flush out drug residues that are believed to be stored in the body’s fatty tissues, which can be a factor in causing cravings and relapse. Participants often report increased mental clarity, renewed energy, and a significant reduction in cravings after completing this step.

Life Skills Training

The core of the program moves into practical education designed to rebuild a participant’s ability to cope with life’s challenges without turning to substances. These courses utilize drills and exercises to teach crucial competencies. Key courses include:

  • Overcoming highs and lows in life
  • Learning to identify individuals who may threaten one’s recovery
  • Developing communication skills
  • Restoring personal integrity and honesty

By focusing on these practical life skills, Narconon Colorado aims to help participants address the reasons they began using drugs in the first place, ensuring they are prepared to return home with a fresh perspective and a strong foundation for maintaining a healthy, drug-free existence.
