Recovery and Beyond
About
Live More Recovery™ provides SOLUTION-focused services for individuals and families who have a desire to find, share, and live more fully within their individual recovery paths. The organization is a 501(c)3 non-profit established to help reduce barriers to care for substance use and related issues.
We have purposefully designed our services to be welcoming to any person, regardless of their "obsession." We have found that the principles of recovery, including the 12-steps, empathy, connection, open-mindedness, and self-compassion, are common solutions to complex problems. It is our goal to focus on the solution rather than the problem.
At Live More Recovery™ you will find individuals who have realized that merely removing the "problem" from their lives does not equate to "living fully.". While the goal of "fixing a loved one" or overcoming an obsession with drugs, alcohol, food, gambling, etc. may be enough for some, individuals at Live More Recovery™ desire to advance beyond the problem. By doing so, participants continue to grow and serve each other, their families, community, and higher power in ways that are healthy and meaningful.
As a wise person once said, "If we aren't growing, we're going.". Once "recovered," we believe the process can be a fun, fulfilling journey that lasts a lifetime! If you need recovery, are bored or stagnant, or are seeking to take your recovery to the next level, Live More Recovery might be for you.
Live More Recovery™ is a member of Faces and Voices of Recovery and is the only Recovery Community Organization in San Antonio. We provide an array of services available 7 days a week, including counseling, coaching, support meetings, workshops, and professional intervention services to name a few. The staff are available to youth, adults and family members. Scroll down to learn more.

As a group, we want to protect your privacy. Our members agree that who we see here and what we hear here stays here. This is a safe place.

When a loved one is in trouble we want and need to take action, but how do we tell the difference between helping and enabling? How do we get through the situation, "guilt-free" and still in tact?
Read MoreOver the years we have matured as an industry and have grown to realize that there are many pathways to recovery. To limit ourselves to just one methodology can limit the possibilities of long term recovery. Below is the working definition developed over several years with input from professionals, laymen and individuals in recovery from across the country. Published and developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
Read MoreRecently I received an email from my doctor listing their holiday hours. On the bottom was this little "Oh by the way" type filler which I'm sure most people wouldn't even scroll down to. (I did because I'm learning about social networking etc.). When I read this I thought the patients might have been better served placing this information first followed by holiday hours. I mean, this is good helpful stuff! Yes, much is common sense but always a good reminder. Flu and cold season, holidays, stress, finances. etc. This is a relapse trigger time of year! Apparently even the CDC knows our vulnerabilities! Taking care of the simple things can help prevent a lot of BIG things. Click on this for some helpful steps to keep you and your loved ones safe and healthy.
Read MoreMarie Kondo is an organizing consultant who became well known for organizing method that is based on choosing to keep only items that speak to your heart rather than deciding what to get rid of. Watching her show on Netflix she would ask her customers, “Does this spark joy”? If the answer was positive, they would keep the item and if it was negative they would discard the item. The philosophy being, “Don’t clutter your life with things and stuff that don’t bring you joy”. What if we were to do the same thing with our intellectual and emotional energy? Reality is we are going to have to do some hard things. Sometimes we will get stuck, but do we have to live in constant paralyzing stress and cognitive overload? When this happens we have to take the steps to get unstuck and find a way to spark joy into our recovery.
