Lumos Transforms

A 3-part workshop for anyone seeking or practicing recovery from substance use and compulsive behaviors.

Do you find yourself turning to harmful substances or behaviors when you’re stressed? You’re not alone! Many people struggle with addiction or compulsive behaviors as a way of coping with difficult situations and emotions.
Even with long-term abstinence in one area, so many people play recovery whack-a-mole, with one substance or behavior replacing the other!
It’s hard to break these patterns on your own–especially without strategies that get to the root of your stress and suffering.

I feel calmer and more confident in my capacity for change. I feel more resilient, self-aware, and compassionate toward myself.

This course is better than any mindful technique I've tried, I highly recommend it for those who have trouble getting out of their head and hold stress in their body.

I noticed more profound personal changes from this course than I did in many years of recovery.

I have struggled for a very, very long time with the belief that I was broken and that something was wrong with me, and this new understanding has allowed me to separate my identity from biological stress activation and as a result, I have been able to meet myself with much more gentleness.

The Resilience Toolkit for Recovery Difference

The Resilience Toolkit for Recovery is a unique approach to recovery that focuses on building resilience rather than just eliminating addiction. While abstinence from harmful substances or behaviors is an important goal, we recognize that avoiding triggers or stressful situations is not always possible. That’s why we provide you with the tools you need to reduce overall stress and respond to triggers in a supportive way rather than simply avoiding them.
While some approaches to recovery are very thinking-heavy, we take a body-first approach. The Resilience Toolkit for Recovery reconnects you to the wisdom of your body–helping you cultivate a sense of internal calm and deeper self-trust. It is from this safe and settled place that you can meet the ups and downs of life without having to reach for a substance.
Unlike other methods, The Toolkit takes a holistic approach to recovery, recognizing that addiction is linked to external factors that cause stress, such as intergenerational trauma, relational conflict, and political, economic, and social systems that marginalize and oppress people. By acknowledging these underlying issues, we can get to the root causes of addiction rather than simply treating the symptoms.

I received a lot of personal insight into my own anxiety and triggers as well as how to manage them and cultivate a sense of resilience and inner strength. I really look forward to applying The Toolkit to my busy life!

Thank you for this work and for introducing me to a more expansive reframe when it comes to resilience, trauma/healing information, and somatic work. It lands well with my own lineage and healing interventions of my Mexican indigenous culture.

I'm happy with the course as it helped me process why I was smoking so much and gave me a practice to counteract following through with the actions that don't serve me.

Anonymous

I feel more grounded, aware, reflective, and wanting to live a bit more measured/carefully. I made better nutritional choices and even decreased some things that weren’t beneficial.
