Spending the day in a beautiful natural environment and breathing fresh air surrounded by nature. Being able to take a walk along peaceful trails and relax. Taking the opportunity to think and meditate, but also to enjoy and have a good time in good company. This is what patients at our center in Roda de Berà experience during therapeutic outings, which will help overcome addiction.
It is a dynamic that forms part of the recreational activities complementary to the detoxification treatment at CCAdicciones. It is aimed at individuals who are admitted to the center undergoing a recovery process. The objective is to leave addiction behind. The outings represent a pause in voluntary confinement and offer countless benefits. At CCAdicciones, we offer treatments to overcome addiction, whether with or without substances.
Benefits of Therapeutic Outings
Therapeutic outings contribute positively to the addiction recovery process because they offer many benefits, among which we would highlight the following:
- Breaking the routine of being at the center all day without going out. Doing something different provides motivation, which will help maintain a better attitude when facing the recovery process. Detoxification treatments and addiction recovery processes are lengthy, and therapeutic outings are a distraction—they can provide a respite and entertainment within the complex situation of overcoming addiction.
- It will be a leisure activity that will provide enjoyment and quality time. It serves to disconnect and spend an entertaining time.
- Strengthening group cohesion. With outings outside the center, the bonds between patients are further strengthened. Patients are strong support for each other, they motivate and encourage one another. After all, they are going through the same situation, and no one will understand a person like someone else who is experiencing the same thing.
- Direct contact with nature. Being in a natural environment, surrounded by nature, will bring calm, tranquility, and incredible inner peace to patients. Additionally, this type of activity will reduce anxiety and irritability.
- Escape route. In the future, it could even be a tool to prevent relapses. It can be a way to channel feelings and emotions and learn to manage stress and anxiety.
- Psychological benefits. Taking a therapeutic getaway to a pleasant place while undergoing detoxification treatment will provide psychological benefits. It can even help establish and reinforce healthy habits. Walking through nature helps to calm down, relax, and organize thoughts.
Therapeutic Outing to Can Llobet
The latest therapeutic outing we have conducted from CCAdicciones with our patients has been to Can Llobet. It is a peaceful, pleasant environment, surrounded by nature and greenery that provides a respite in the life of the patient admitted to the clinic. In addition to walking and taking an excursion in a natural habitat, activities have been conducted to improve personal and group development.
Other Complementary Activities
At CCAdicciones, we place great importance on complementary activities to detoxification treatment, such as recreational and sports activities, because they have a positive impact on addiction improvement.
Recreational activities
Recreational activities are intended to accelerate patient rehabilitation by providing the necessary tools to acquire new habits, control their behavior, and break toxic routines.
Group dynamics are conducted to work on important concepts that need to be fostered, such as empathy, assertiveness, and self-esteem. Group therapy will help control attitudes that negatively impact addiction, such as impulsivity. Additionally, workshops will be held to recover social and communication skills that have been adversely affected by substance use. To lead a fulfilling life after addiction, it is crucial to be able to reintegrate into society. Therefore, it will be essential to work on these skills.
Body expression and laughter therapy are activities that are conducted because they enhance verbal and non-verbal communication. They will help improve the illness while patients view them as fun and entertaining dynamics.
Having good emotional control and knowing how to manage stress and anxiety is essential to overcome addiction. Relaxation techniques and mindfulness will help achieve this.
Sports activities
Sports are a great therapeutic complement to addiction treatment for overcoming an addiction disorder. When exercising, endorphins are generated and the patient’s mood will improve. Practicing sports and establishing it as a daily routine will be a habit that helps lead a healthy life. Therefore, engaging in sports is a very positive factor when facing addiction.
Regarding the sports practices developed at our clinic, they include: toning activities, elasticity, flexibility, coordination exercises, classes led by instructors, and training adapted to each patient.
Detoxification Treatment
Despite the numerous benefits provided by complementary treatments, the fundamental pillar is detoxification treatment. A successful recovery process will be achieved if they are combined with each other.
At CCAdicciones, we offer treatments to overcome drug addiction or to overcome addictive behavior, so whether it is an addiction with or without substances, you will find a reliable path to abandon addiction. Throughout our years of experience helping addicts and their families, we have merged different therapies and treatments to achieve one exclusive to CCAdicciones with a high degree of effectiveness. We know that it is possible to overcome addiction. This is indicated by our 86% recovery rate.
