Integral Recovery: Treating Addiction the Integral Way ~ John Dupuy and Bill Harris
If you are working with or interested in helping people recover from drug and alcohol addiction, and have been frustrated and at times despairing of existing treatment models, please continue reading to learn about a new and comprehensive approach to recovery treatment.
After many years in the world of addiction treatment, recovery expert John Dupuy has created an innovative, new treatment model called Integral Recovery. This model is based on the application of Ken Wilber's AQAL map to the field of addiction treatment, and puts forward an ongoing life-long Integral Life Practice as the core healing modality of Integral Recovery. This is a real world application of the Integral/AQAL map to one of our largest and most pressing human catastrophes: drug addiction.
You will be introduced to this model in two ways. First, John would like you to have a complimentary copy of a paper he wrote on this new approach, published in AQAL: Journal of Integral Theory and Practice. The paper is called "Toward an Integral Recovery Model for Drug and Alcohol Addiction," and you can download it by clicking on the link.
Then, we'd like to invite you to a special live workshop where John, along with a few special guests, will discuss this innovative approach, and show you how you can easily implement it in your facility or practice in order to increase the success rate in your recovery approach.
The workshop will be Nov. 14 - 16 at the Boulder Center for Integral Living, in Boulder, Colorado. We are extremely excited about this new approach, and we thought you'd want to know about it.
John Dupuy's work has been published in the AQAL Journal and Integrale Pespectiven, the leading German Integral magazine. He has conducted workshops and talks in the U.S. and Europe, and have many years of experience working with those suffering from addiction and their families. He founded Passages to Recovery and is the co-founder of Open Sky Wilderness Therapy, two therapeutic wilderness programs.
The event's co-presenter will be Bill Harris, who has created an amazing tool that has been used in addiction recovery with astounding results. In this workshop, Bill will demonstrate this tool and show you how you can use it in your own work.
Bill is currently President and Director of Centerpointe Research Institute. He started Centerpointe Research Institute in 1989 with borrowed recording equipment set up on his kitchen table. Today, approximately 700,000 people in 173 countries have used Centerpointe programs, including the tool I want him to share with you, to improve their lives.
Though not initially created as an addiction recovery tool, Centerpointe's proprietary Holosync sound technology, when listened to through stereo headphones, creates the brain wave patterns of deep meditative states, causing the brain to reorganize at higher levels of functioning, while at the same time raising the stress threshold, which in itself powerfully contributes to relapse prevention.
John and Bill have found that those who use Holosync during their recovery process experience tremendous positive changes. They much more quickly have (and embrace) many of the key insights that make their recovery smoother and faster. More specifically, Holosync:
You will never look at addiction and treatment the same.

- Reduces stress and increases the ability of people to handle stressful situations
- Reduces the production of cortisol in the brain, a harmful stress-related neurochemical and increases the production of positive neurochemicals, such as dopamine and serotonin
- Aids in balancing the left and right hemispheres of the brain, which is experienced in the individual as increased cognitive and creative abilities
- Aids in the reintegration and release of trauma and repressed shadow elements in the psyche
- Quickly leads to an increased sense of well-being and serenity in one’s life
- Treatment professionals
- Individuals in recovery (or their family and friends)
- Those interested in Integral theory and its real world application
You will never look at addiction and treatment the same.
