“I FELT SUCH DEEP SENSE OF PEACE AND BALANCE”

I have done two breath work meditation sessions with Rock to Recovery and it
completely blew my mind!! I have never experienced anything like that. It’s an
amazing relief from anxiety for me. I felt such deep sense of peace and balance
during and after the sessions. I can not express enough how grateful I am to
Rock to Recovery for these incredible sessions! I never knew how much I needed
it.

Thank you so much!!

“I NEVER KNEW HOW MUCH FUN I COULD HAVE SOBER”

"Wesley Geer led my Rock to Recovery groups in addiction and mental health
treatment. He showed me how to have fun sober which was a novel concept to me at
the time. I never knew how much fun I could have sober. I am five years sober

"Getting to participate with R2R has not just opened my heart up to music again,
it encouraged me to engage in other forms of art in my recovery on a daily

through music when I didn’t have the ability to love myself."

“I’VE SEEN THIS NON-PROFIT OPEN DOORS THAT MEDICINE JUST CAN’T DO”

"From team building to opening up minds, I’ve seen this non-profit open doors
that medicine just can’t do. The song writing process helps patients escape for
a moment, seek clarity and reminisce. Through years of being involved with the
Air Force Wounded Warrior program, I have witnessed multiple warriors return and
mention that they were excited to have picked up a guitar on journal to start
writing lyrics to express themselves and have found healing through music."

“KEEP ROCKING OUT, IT WORKS IF YOU ROCK IT!”

"The most elegant feature is that R2R is suitable to re-awaken the musician who
has let their talent lapse, or for a non-musician who hasn't so much as even
picked up a tambourine; either the client walks away with a new skill, or gets
back in touch with their inner rock star. Keep rocking out, it works if you ROCK
IT!"

YOU INSPIRED THE SPARK INSIDE

"First, just wanted to thank you for doing what you do. Your sessions were the
thing that spoke to me the most during my stay, and have helped me to not even
think about getting loaded since I've left. Was truly life changing to hear your
story and see how you made a change through music. I've actually decided to
pursue becoming an audio engineer and I can truly say that you inspired the
spark inside, that gave me the courage to finally think I could still be in the
music industry after deciding to become sober. I just surpassed 55 days and
haven't looked back. Stoked to send you some of my work some day!"

WHAT TO DO AFTER REHAB

Those who don’t get support after rehab often relapse. Leaving rehab requires
planning. This plan usually consists of a list of names of people to call for
support. It may include a therapist, the appropriate local 12-step hotline, and
more. Many, if not most, people leaving treatment find the idea of calling those
numbers overwhelming. Here are six actions to prevent relapse.

IS SELF-CARE SELFISH?

Is taking care of yourself a selfish act? After all, taking care of one’s self
may mean deprioritizing others who need or depend upon you. To take a walk, you
may need to put an elderly parent or child in the care of another for an hour.
Enjoying a soaking bath may require setting firm boundaries that others not bang
on the door for a period of thirty minutes.

THE BENEFITS OF A RECOVERY COACH

Gathering additional support in the pandemic is what your recovery may need. A
recovery coach is an individual who provides mentoring and support services to
someone early in recovery from addiction or to a person who has a particular
obstacle they are struggling to overcome at any point in their recovery.

ABOUT US



Rock to Recovery was created to help soothe the restless souls of those in
recovery. We do this by creating a “band” and writing and recording songs
together with Rock to Recovery’s staff of professional musicians, who are also
in recovery. We help bring fun into treatment and recovery by offering a natural
escape from the fear-based mind. This helps people grow a sense of belonging and
self esteem. We help to vent emotions by writing lyrics and singing together for
release, in real-time. We tie in a positive theme of hope in recovery throughout
the whole process. When the session is done, our “band” members feel a new
energy all throughout their minds and spirits.

 

Music is a powerful tool, proven to help soothe the soul. For someone in
recovery, learning to have clean and sober fun, feeling a part of, connecting to
a group, and quieting the mind are keys to a successful new life. It’s time to
feel good in all that we do. Rock to Recovery gives people, such as recovering
addicts/alcoholics, victims of abuse, troubled teens, or any individual in
recovery, a chance to have fun expressing themselves, working as a group, and
experiencing the natural high only music can produce.
