Perspective
RECOVERY ON YOUR [OWN] TERMS [YOUR RECOVERY, YOUR TERMS]
“FOR DECADES, WE HAVE TREATED ADDICTION WITH JUDGMENT AND PUNISHMENT. IT'S TIME TO RESTORE THE CULTURE OF COMPASSION AND ACCEPTANCE WITHIN THE SOBER COMMUNITY.”
RECOVER IN A SAFE, INCLUSIVE SOBER NETWORK FOR PEOPLE WHO INTEGRATE CANNABIS INTO THEIR RECOVERY LIFESTYLE
For decades, we have been treating addiction with large doses of shame and punishment. Current 12 Step programs pass judgment on their own people simply for using medicine to treat their addiction. The toxic culture of abstinence-only programs is perpetuated throughout the sober community and is a great disservice to the people who require assistance outside of the traditional 12-step programs.
Our view on recovery with cannabis
Protection against potential relapse is the most important part of recovery. Programs that ostracize members of the recovery community for the use of medical marijuana choose to abandon their own people. They do this out of fear and ignorance, rejecting successful lifestyles found in non-abstinence-based programs because they challenge the definition of recovery. This act of rejection is incredibly damaging and has the potential to trigger a relapse.
More and more research data has supported the medical benefits of cannabis. Inspired in part by the findings of multiple medical journals, Cali Clean advocates for cannabis, believing it is one of many harm reduction techniques that can benefit an individual’s relapse prevention plan.
Providing a safe, inclusive space for people choosing to integrate cannabis within their recovery It’s time to restore our general health & mindful wellness.
