“The holiday season can certainly test a person’s resolve – regardless of how strong they have been in their recovery efforts throughout the year. We designed these special holiday retreat sessions as a way for women to find strength in sobriety during these stressful times,” says Ty Goodridge-Lund, founder of the Open Door Retreat.

Open Door Retreat, a US based center located in beautiful San Miguel de Allende Mexico, caters to women in recovery from all types of addictions, from drugs and alcohol to food and co-dependency.

At these special addiction retreats, women will experience:

• An individually customized retreat to address their specific recovery and emotional needs
• Mental health counselor sessions
• Meditation
• Group meetings
• Daily journaling
• Yoga
• Cooking classes
• Daily spiritual walks

Each spiritual retreat is specifically tailored for each woman to help her meet her personal goals with a selection of hand-picked activities that compliment the core set of retreat activities. In the past, Goodridge-Lund has arranged sessions of equine therapy, artistic expression, dance classes, and photography lessons in order to help various women develop their own personal strength in recovery.
