Meditation & Mindfulness
Discover Healing & Peace at 10 Acre Ranch.
The goal at 10 Acre Ranch is to equip men with the skills they need to live a meaningful life in lasting recovery
Meditation and mindfulness are cornerstones to our program, so each day at the Ranch begins with morning meditation. Our integrated 12-step programs help residents set and achieve meditation goals, and our credentialed therapists encourage them to adopt a post-rehab meditation practice as part of a healthy, vibrant lifestyle.
Mornings at 10 Acre Ranch
Morning meditation is a collaborative part of our social model for lasting recovery. Mornings at 10 Acre Ranch begin with group members reading day-by-day books. After engaging with the day’s entry, the group shares thoughts about how it applies to today’s treatment challenges.
Therapists help residents achieve recovery goals by teaching the basic principles of relaxation and guiding participants through meditation. Time for private meditation practice is provided and mindfulness is encouraged. Residents are taught to become aware of inner feelings, thoughts and emotions and to detach these observations from misplaced self-judgment.
