Internet Addiction Recovery Program

Discovery Quest Life Coaching

Founded upon Dave Ellis' Leadership Skills for Life program titled "Human Being," participants in the Internet Addiction Treatment program begin each day with a personal discovery session. Group work focuses on the "Power Processes" which fosters an understanding of what participants want out of life by examining choices, focusing attention, looking for answers, contributing and defining one's own personal values and charting their life purpose. This very comprehensive life curriculum assists participants in improving their lives. Group work consists of journaling and self-discovery exercises meant to examine and vision a life filled with greater meaning and fulfillment.

Life Skills Exposure Coaching

Each afternoon at mid-day, participants join together in reviewing the basic components of launching a productive and fulfilling life. Topics of discussion include the core basics, such as: good nutrition, balanced eating, developing better sleep habits, and making healthy lifestyle choices. Participants actively engage with the indoor and outdoor environment taking care of the property and animals, cooking meals, doing  their own laundry, meal planning and shopping, budgeting, and financial planning.
