We’re honouring Winter Solstice with members mindfully hanging their names and sober dates on White Bison ornaments for our own Wellbriety Tree Ceremony at Aurora. #WinterSolstice #TraditionalHealing #Ceremony #Recovery https://bit.ly/3oNs7Ct

On behalf of Aurora Recovery Centre, I’d like to acknowledge all the essential workers, tirelessly taking care of our needs behind the scenes. We are deeply grateful for your dedication and especially thankful to our #HealthcareWorkers for putting themselves in harm's way and taking care of the most vulnerable among us. As we all join together to overcome our challenges I am reminded once again of how valuable community is here in #Manitoba. Please know that in our eyes, you ...are all true heroes.

Our aim is to uplift and encourage women on their paths to recovery, teaching them tools to overcome #stigma and empower them to emerge into a lifetime of #recovery. #NAAW #TheChangeBeginsWithMe #addiction #Aurora https://bit.ly/2UUXNZu

This week, we join CCSA for National Addiction Awareness Week, bringing focus to #addiction, substance use disorders and mental illnesses in an effort to cap the #stigma of addiction. #NAAW #TheChangeBeginsWithMe #Recovery #Aurora https://bit.ly/2HtbZpJ

Stigma against people who use drugs results in #discrimination impacts health and contributes to #overdoses. We share their stories to encourage empathy & compassion. #ChangeBeginsWithMe #StigmaEndsWithMe #AddictionsAwarenessWeek #AuroraRecoveryCentre https://bit.ly/2ISeK4F

Hurtful labels about addiction only increase suffering, they don’t heal it. We at #Aurora see every day real change that happens with compassionate, positive language. #StigmaEndsWithMe #ChangeBeginsWithMe #Recovery #SubstanceUseDisorders #Aurora

On October 19, 2020, Aurora was heightened and inspired by the teachings of Dr. Allen Berger, a Doctor of Clinical Psychology. He shared from decades of personal and professional experience in helping clients see their true potential and become excited about their lives. @AllenBergerPhD #Recovery #SubstanceUseDisorder #TwelveStupidThingsThatMessUpRecovery #AuroraRecoveryCentre https://bit.ly/38nfM2R

On October 26, 2020, Aurora alumni and family members were fortunate to participate in a wonderful volunteer activity, a late-season cleanup of Assiniboine Park. @assiniboineparkzoo #ARCSquad #Volunteer #Step12 #Recovery #AuroraRecoveryCentre https://bit.ly/3kd5tR6

Exercise helps with depression and mood in recovery. Manitoba’s current lockdown for the COVID-19 pandemic is the perfect opportunity to work on proper posture for strength, stretching and healing in recovery. #Fitness #ARCFit #Wellness #Posture #Recovery https://bit.ly/2Loxs4B

"Moments of clarity arrive right on time. My partner convinced me to make a call for help. I did, and never drank again." #AddictionAwareness begins with personal awareness. #NAAW #TheChangeBeginsWithMe #recovery #Aurora https://bit.ly/35WZwDZ

We don’t grow up aiming for a future of addiction to substances. Deep suffering comes with #SubstanceUseDisorder, and healing from trauma can go hand in hand with #recovery. A compassionate helping hand makes all the difference. #NAAW #StigmaEndsWithMe #ChangeBeginsWithMe #Aurora

While the world is considering another lockdown, it is important to your #recovery to find time to work on your personal #fitness. While we already know about the importance of finding balance in your life and recovery, ARCFit Director Eddie Miller talks about finding balance from a physical training perspective. As you can see, he was in the Halloween spirit! @eddiemiller.ca #FindingBalance #ARCFit #AuroraRecoveryCentre #SubstanceUseDisorder https://bit.ly/32s6rCV

Today we remember. #RemembranceDay #HonourOurVets #VeteransInRecovery #AuroraRecoveryCentre

Aurora Recovery Centre is a top trauma-sensitive treatment and recovery centre in Canada. This U of M study of the increase in meth-related health system interactions supports our approach: People’s life circumstances can predispose them to turn to #meth as a way of coping. It is critical to address underlying factors that influence both mental health and substance use, such as poverty, insecure housing, racism and #trauma. #methaddiction #trauma #mentalhealth #recovery #treatment #Aurora https://www.aurorarecoverycentre.com/u-of-m-meth-study-fin/

#NAAW theme is #ChangeBeginsWithMe. Ending #stigma around addiction begins with each of us. Listen with compassion, without judgement. They just want to be heard. #StigmaEndsWithMe #AuroraRecoveryCentre #Recovery

We at Aurora recognize that, beyond #12Step groups, there are many paths to #recovery with a large spectrum of support group options. Founded by Noah Levine, #DharmaRecovery is based on traditional #Buddhist teachings, introducing people to the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. #IndigenousTraditions #AuroraRecoveryCentre #Aurora https://bit.ly/2FcVJbf

Compared to the general population, [substance users] are more vulnerable to the health impacts of #COVID-19 and the hardships of physical distancing. #NAAW #TheChangeBeginsWithMe #addiction #recovery #Aurora https://bit.ly/36Ywbsh

For anyone in #recovery, Remembrance Day is a day to pay attention, says Aurora’s clinical director, Anthony Cafik. For those still in uniform, and for those who once wore one, it is especially time to be aware of where your feelings are. Things come up that may have been numbed in addiction. It is okay to step into those feelings, to honour them. As a #vet, you know bravery. #VeteransInRecovery #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget #AuroraRecoveryCentre #SubstanceUse #AuroraRecove...ryCentre https://bit.ly/3eJ4tmx

What about #veterans in #recovery? Is #RemembranceDay more difficult than other days? Is it a proverbial slippery slope, where they have to pay extra attention to their state of mind? One veteran in recovery shares his perspective #VetsInRecovery #SubstanceUseDisorder #PTSD #AuroraRecoveryCentre https://bit.ly/38qjTuR

No person should be defined by their illness. With empathy, we see beneath the #SubstanceUseDisorder and help raise them up into #recovery with positive encouragement. #NAAW #StigmaEndsWithMe #ChangeBeginsWithMe #Aurora

With a background of being the fixer, the handler, for executives in financial, electronics and furniture sectors, Tracy says none of that prepared her for what she is doing at #Aurora. #MeetTheStaff #Recovery #TreatmentCentre #GimliMB https://bit.ly/3pbQ47s

#Aurora is doing its part to make sure it is more than capable of handling the rising number of families asking for its help. And we know as well as anyone that nobody knows recovery like our members. Aurora is looking for our alumni’s help to meet these needs. We need support. Member support. In the form of Member Care Specialists. #NowHiring #MemberCareSpecialist #AlumniEmploymentOpportunity #Recovery #AddictionTreatment ... https://bit.ly/3pcP5UE

Including families, workplaces and communities in treatment plans reduce #stigma and encourage more comprehensive workplace healing. https://bit.ly/36bhSlt #AddictionTreatment #Recovery #SubstanceUseDisorders #AuroraRecoveryCentre

With winter on its way here, it’s important to remember to try to keep physically active as part of your recovery. If you don’t have access to a gym, you always can work out at home. Bodyweight training is some of the best out there. Here are some easy exercises you can do in your living rooms. Just don’t forget to breathe. #Exercise #StayFit #Recovery #LivingRoomWorkout #AuroraRecoveryCentre #Aurora https://bit.ly/2I77tNr

Just as #addiction doesn't develop in a vacuum, #recovery doesn't either. The success of your treatment depends on your connection with others and developing relationships. #RecoveryCommunity #AddictionTreatment #AuroraRecoveryCentre

#Addiction #recovery can be a bumpy road at any stage. When it's time to ask for help, we want you to experience the relief of feeling heard, encouragement to walk through it, courage to embrace what you're feeling, and strength to step into your new #RecoveryForLife #Aurora

#12Step based recovery isn't for everyone. There are many paths to #recovery. Connection with like-minded people dealing with similar struggles is the common thread. We help you find connection to #RecoveryCommunities with similar beliefs to yours. https://bit.ly/36SPO6m

The Autumn Equinox is a meaningful time of year to honour the harvest, whether that be a physical harvest of garden vegetables or the harvest of efforts and intentions that have set you on your life path. #FallEquinox #IndigenousCulture #Recovery #AuroraRecoveryCentre #Aurora https://bit.ly/3d8ZWJo

#Recovery built upon shame and guilt rarely causes long-term, sustainable recovery. It merely creates compliance which, over time, may lead to re-traumatization, denial, and rebellion. We encourage and support you in your recovery. #SubstanceUse #AddictionTreatment #Aurora

A goal of #AddictionTreatment is to become a functioning, helpful member of your community. Members of Aurora's #ARCSquad are actively involved in community outreach programs and service activities. To request the ARC Squad volunteer services contact us: https://bit.ly/2IbuSxm

Research proves that those who regularly connect with a #12step community of people healing from similar issues have a far better #recovery outcome from #addiction and co-occurring #MentalHealthDisorders compared to those who do not. #AuroraRecoveryCentre

September 30 saw Aurora’s staff and members acknowledging the dark history of Residential Schools in Canada by donning symbolic orange t-shirts, honouring the traumatic legacy that many Indigenous people still suffer. #ResidentialSchools #OrangeShirtDay https://bit.ly/33FabC8
