Sober Living
What is Sober Living? A Temporary Living Arrangement
Sober living, is a temporary living arrangement to help people transition from primary detox treatment to living autonomously. Drug and alcohol-free environment is a distinct feature of sober living. Many sober home residents enroll simultaneously for intensive outpatient programs (IOP) after residential addiction treatment. But Sober living is voluntary and not a requirement. The combination of IOP therapies and the safe-sober-living-environment provide you with a great chance for your road to long-term sobriety. Typically, a sober-living resident resides in these homes for about six months to a year until they are confident to live in sobriety independently.

Why Sober Living? Recovery is a Process
Recovery is never an over-night task, it is a long-standing process. An addict can take anywhere between few weeks to several months to get clean mentally and physically. In the early stages of recovery, your impulse control, emotional control, and decision-making skills are weaker. So, it is beneficial to live with recovering addicts who identify with your experience and also who may be in an advanced stage of recovery to guide you in healing. Sober living acts as a gradual-transitional platform from treatment into normal society. It is a much needed stop-over between your addiction-recovery and independent-rewarding living.
The Benefits of Sober Living at New Spirit Detox
Accountability
Sober-home living trains you to be accountable for your actions. Other than abstaining from drugs and alcohol, you will also participate in 12-step meetings, social activities in the recovery community, work, go to school, and develop a regular communication with house managers or other residents. This form of accountability acts as learning and rehearsals for an independent living.
