Reflection

Living in the present is a vital part of long-term recovery.  Living in the past, or digging up old memories can create mental anguish that a person may try to lessen with a drug like heroin or cocaine which leads to drug addiction.

Living in the present keeps one focused on the outside world.  The Narconon drug treatment program emphasizes learning skills that keep a person in the present.  Here is the success story from a person who is well on their way to realizing there is no place like the present.

“What I learned today was helpful in several ways.  I have learned through the Narconon program that being in present time is a great way to stay off drugs.  One of the many tools I have learned is how to stay in present time.  I also notice that my spirits are really picking up!”
