THE COURAGE OF LIONS
As a community, we can learn a lot from the strength and courage of lions.
Just like a pride of lions, our community can work together to address the
complexities of addiction and support those in need. Each member of the
community, whether a well-funded agency, a small community organization,
a church, or an individual with lived life experience, has a unique role and
contribution to make, just like each lion in a pride.
At Colusa County Recovery, we believe in the power of the lion pride mentality.
Our grassroots recovery outreach may not have the financial resources of larger agencies, but our volunteers have the hearts and courage of lions, and are dedicated to helping individuals break the cycle of addiction and live happy, productive lives.
Let us join together, like a pride of lions, to build a diverse network of support and services that ensures the recovery and success of all members of our community.

The Sober Curious Movement Attracts Millions
The Sober Curious movement represents a shift in societal attitudes towards alcohol and a growing interest in exploring a more mindful and intentional relationship with drinking and is particularly popular with young adults and 30-somethings. The movement questions drinking habits and patterns, challenge societal norms, and consider the benefits of living alcohol-free or adopting a more conscious approach to alcohol consumption.
RECOVERY IS A TEAM SPORT
(Colusa County Recovery) - Addiction recovery is a challenging process that requires a lot of hard work and determination. One key ingredient for success is having a strong support system in place. Support can come in many forms, including friends, family, and support groups.
Research has shown that social support is essential for addiction recovery. In fact, Keith Humphrey, a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford Medical University, found that Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is almost always more effective than psychotherapy in achieving abstinence.
While we appreciate the value of psychotherapy and recommend it highly, having a strong support system that includes support groups and loved ones can greatly improve one's chances of success. By working together, individuals can achieve lasting recovery and reclaim their lives.
Support groups, such as AA, Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and Smart Recovery, can provide a sense of community and connection, as well as practical tools for managing cravings and staying on track. These groups are often led by peers who have gone through similar experiences, which can make them uniquely effective.
Friends and family members can also provide a valuable source of encouragement and motivation. They can offer practical support, such as help with daily tasks, transportation, and childcare.
