Our I'm Ready For A Lifestyle Change Now ~ Ongoing EduRaps™ : For Wimmin Who Are Over-Partying & Making Really Bad Choices, But Can't Seem To Stop Alone

Every 1st & 3rd Saturday of the month ~

Our "I'm Ready For A Lifestyle Change Now" EduRaps is for motivated wimmin who want help with exploring, proactive ways of cutting back on; reducing our risky "getting high" behaviors;  or reducing our self-sabotaging, unmanageable over-partying lifestyle; our recreational alcohol or drug-related bad choices; and/or our unmanageable alcohol or drug-related social behaviors.

We'll mindfully discuss, identify, proactively "try-on" and affirmatively encourage any and all positive lifestyle changes which each participant decides to make in regard to your use of alcohol or other mood altering substances.

We'll proactively explore and encourage a variety of harm reduction- related lifestyle goals; ranging from safer reduced or moderate drinking and "getting high" to abstinence.

The choice of which lifestyle change goal really is up to you. Not sure if our EduRap™ is right for you? Well then, have you recently been asking or telling yourself:

 

• I really do need to just cut down on or change my [over] partying lifestyle, 'cause it's just as much fun anymore?
• I think I need to cut back on my social drinking, smoking and my getting high so much?
  

Are you feeling motivated to change but need some support to actually do so for any of the following:

• Have you gotten involved in some really risky or illegal behaviors [like getting a DUI or Wet Reckless or wrecking your car, etc.] which has caused you to want/ have to cut down on your partying or getting high routine ?
• Have your friends, loved ones or co-workers recently been telling you that you seriously need to slow down on your current partying, drinking, smoking or getting high style?
• Or have you just begin to feel like your drinking, smoking and getting high "social use" is becoming unmanageable and want to look at cutting back down to something more manageable?
  

Well, these are all really good reasons for you to join and participate in our proactive and womin-affirmative "I'm Ready For A Lifestyle Change Now" EduRaps process. The only requirement for participation is a willingness to examine what's really happening around your partying or drinking, smoking or drug use and any related reasons for considering making some real changes.

We're confidential and we're not an AA or a 12-step group. Wimmin are welcome to refer themselves. As well, practitioners and employers are open to make referrals. You may join at any point in the year. A brief initial consultation will be needed beforehand, to ensure that you're appropriately matched to the right process.
