“You have to know the past to understand the present.”

-Carl Sagan, American astronomer and astrobiologist

Dysfunction or addiction doesn’t start in a vacuum. For that matter, neither does recovery. There are many moving and complex parts and pieces. One of the biggest contributing factors is what you inherited, learned, and didn’t learn from your family of origin. Understanding what is presently happening for you starts by excavating the past.

Maybe, while seeing your therapist or working the steps with your sponsor, you’ve started to scratch the surface of the dysfunction you observed and absorbed in your childhood. To really get at the root of the problem, you need to get one layer deeper. After all, this is the birthplace of addiction.

It is possible to acknowledge both the pain and strength, the shame and resiliency, the dysfunction and the love given to you by your family of origin. And in holding these ideas together, we begin to understand and change our present into the life we love living!

Join us for a three-day weekend intensive to explore these ideas in a safe, supportive group setting. During our time together, you will:

  • Excavate the big picture and look at the story you were born into

  • Unearth what strengths came from your family dysfunction and how to utilize them

  • Extract the ways your childhood is showing up in the present in ways you might might not want

  • Dig into models and definitions of functional adulthood and assess your current situation

  • Make a plan to take steps towards greater functional adulthood in your life and how we can leave the past in the past
