"As someone who has spent most of his addicted life stuck in his own head, the beginners yoga work that I’ve done at Valiant has been an unexpected, pleasant surprise. While I was very reluctant at first, I soon realized this was meditation for my body which allowed me to get in touch with pain, anger, and grief long buried from my childhood. I may never be a super cool yoga dude, however my experience here has convinced me that yoga will be a part of my recovery for the rest of my life. I'm super grateful for Malissa’s guidance and patience in helping me establish a new body focused dimension of recovery in my life."

"The initial weeks and months of recovery were unsettling as I began to distance myself from my addiction. The practice of mindfulness, meditation and yoga was an indispensable compliment to my treatment as I navigated the emotional fluctuations of the withdrawals. This practice has showed me how to step behind my emotions and other dysfunctional coping responses to focus on my inner self and begin rebuilding trust and a refreshing authenticity within myself as well as those I love."

– John W.

"It has been a vital part of my recovery in allowing me to be challenged physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. For someone who deals with anxiety, having the tools to know how to surrender and be present has been crucial. Before doing these exercises, I never realized how little time I spent in the present. Mindfulness, meditation, and yoga have helped me find peace from rumination and future tripping by keeping me grounded in the here and now. It will continue to be an important part of my recovery and sobriety."

– Andrew
