Confronting The Past
From the very first step in the Narconon Program, we work on improving a person’s ability to face situations or people without avoiding them. The reason we work on confronting life and people in it is because it gives a person the ability to face their problems instead of running away from them.
An Important Step in Improving Family Relationships
It is well known that an addiction negatively effects the people around a person who is addicted, especially those who love them the most. A person with an addiction does not necessarily do things to intentionally hurt their families, it is unfortunately just an unavoidable side effect of substance abuse.
The Goal of Narconon
The goal of Narconon is to not only get people off of drugs but to give them the skills that will help them to improve every aspect of their lives. “Thanks to Narconon I got my life back. I’m happy with myself and happy about my life…“
Learning Who to Keep Around
An important aspect of remaining sober is learning who to keep in your life and who to stay away from. In the “Ups and Downs“ section of the Life Skills course we focus on learning personality traits that will help us to figure out who will help build us up and those who will tear us down.
