Lighting the way for addiction recovery. We offer individualized outpatient care for substance use

In Happy Gilmore 2, we see a new side of Happy. Behind the laughs and golf swings, he faces some tough moments—including struggles with alcohol—and discovers the strength to turn things around.

It’s a reminder that life doesn’t always go straight down the fairway. But with support, self-belief, and the courage to take that first swing toward change, brighter days are always possible.

At Beacon Center, we see these stories every day. Recovery is a journey filled with resilience, hope, and new beginnings—and you don’t have to face it alone. Whether you’re just starting your path or cheering on a loved one, know that support is always within reach.

At Beacon Center, we walk with you through the fear, into hope, healing, and recovery. You don’t have to face it alone. 💙

August is National Wellness Month, and a little self-care can go a long way toward supporting your mental health and recovery journey. 🌿💙
Here are 4 weekly wellness tips to guide you through the month:

Week 1: Mindful Moments 🧘‍♂️
Take 5–10 minutes each day to pause and just breathe. Try a guided meditation, deep breathing, or jotting down your thoughts in a journal. Mindfulness helps calm your mind and keep you focused on your goals.

Week 2: Move Your Body 🚶‍♀️
You don’t need a gym to boost your mood—movement is medicine! Take a short walk, do some light stretching, or try a fun activity that gets you moving. Even 15–20 minutes can lift your energy and reduce stress.

Week 3: Connect & Share 💬
Wellness thrives in community. Call a friend, attend a support group, or just check in with someone who lifts you up. Sharing your journey makes challenges easier to face and reminds you that you’re not alone.

Week 4: Prioritize Rest & Self‑Care 😴
Sleep and relaxation are essential for recovery. Aim for 7–8 hours of sleep and carve out time for something that brings you peace—reading, listening to music, or enjoying a quiet moment to yourself.

🌟 Small steps toward wellness can create big changes over time. Which of these tips will you start with this week?
