Method of Functioning of a Rehabilitation Program in Arizona

The rehabilitation program in Arizona is one of the vital cogs in the machine of the addiction treatment program. This is considered to be one of the most comprehensive forms of treatment that includes several methods to come up with a complete program that can work for people with all kinds of addiction problems. The addiction treatment program in Arizona stresses on rehabilitation treatment as one of the most important aspects of treatment. It is strongly advocated for people who have been with an addiction for over a year and for people who have not been able to find solutions to their addiction problem through other mild programs. Even for people who have some other underlying health problems or psychiatric conditions, the rehabilitation program in Arizona is considered to be one of the best solutions.

The rehabilitation program in Arizona is always an inpatient setting which makes the patient isolated from family and home. This change in atmosphere is needed because one of the integral aspects of the treatment is to make the patient rejuvenate all physical and mental processes so that the effective treatment can be obtained.

Though each rehab center in Arizona will follow a slightly different program, mainly because their theories and their implementations would be different, there are some common points seen across various programs. At its simplest, the rehabilitation treatment in Arizona can be broken down into four phases. These are described below:-

Phase 1 - Overcoming Denial

Most people who will be registered with a rehabilitation treatment program in Arizona will have already come out of their denial process. This is because most of them would have come through an intervention program, which is adequate in itself to help people come over denial of the addiction and take some form of treatment. However, in some patients, this denial may come again when they are in the treatment center. If that happens, the patient won't respond to treatment. For that, the treatment center would need to spend time and effort in getting the patient out of denial once again. For this purpose, the rehab center would definitely take the help of the family members of the patient and the intervention program that they had used.

Phase 2 - Assessment

Once the patient is completely convinced for the treatment, the next step is to conduct a pretreatment analysis of the patient. The patient is led into an evaluative program where they are clinically diagnosed and assessed through interviews. The main things that are found out ere are the nature and extent of the person's addiction, whether the person has been in any other treatment program prior to this, whether the patient has any underlying medication or psychiatric conditions, etc. The main focus here is to estimate how the patient will be able to face the treatment and what kind of treatment program should be used for them.

Phase 3 - Detox

No rehabilitation treatment in Arizona is complete without a detox program. The detox program is the only medical part of the addiction treatment program in the state. This is where the patient is made to stay away from the substance, in complete abstinence, and then the patient is treated for the withdrawal effects that will inevitably occur. This can take a lot of time, depending n the nature of the addiction and how frequently it has been used in the past. The main intention is to remove the poisonous metabolites that the addictive substance may have caused in the body of the person.

Depending on how intensive the addiction is, and its nature, the detox program in Arizona can run from three days to three weeks. Technically, detox will not be considered complete unless and until the person has been completely pulled out of the withdrawal pangs.

Phase 4 - Aftercare

The last step of the rehabilitation treatment in Arizona is the aftercare. This can be done in the center itself, or in another center or even on an outpatient basis. The nature of the aftercare is usually decided on the way the treatment has progressed so far. One of the main aspects of the aftercare is to keep the patient on maintenance medication so that there are no further urges for the substance. Family counseling, especially to train them how to cope with the situation and how to become of substantial support to prevent the person from having a re-addiction, is also a part of the aftercare treatment in most centers.

The main intention of the rehabilitation treatment program in Arizona is to make the patient an active part of society once again, after making them overcome their dependency on the substance. Needless to say, this is a mammoth task and it does take a lot of time and an elaborate program.

Dr. Gabriel Cousens, Raw Food Expert and Author Shares the Benefits of Detoxification

This interview is an excerpt from Kevin Gianni's Fountain of Youth Summit, which can be found at http://fountainofyouthworldsummit.com. In this excerpt, Dr. Gabriel Cousens shares what detoxification can do for you.

The Fountain of Youth World Summit with Dr. Gabriel Cousens, the founder of Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center and author of "Conscious Eating" and "Spiritual Nutrition."

KEVIN: I am extremely excited about this. So, why don't we start talking about detoxification? What's your story? How did you get involved in this?

GABRIEL: Well, initially I was exploring it from a spiritual point of view. In 1982, on my own did a 40-day fast.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: It's not the...probably the best way to start - it was a great way for me to start but I don't really recommend it for most people.

KEVIN: [Laughs]

GABRIEL: In 1988, I really began to do fasting retreats for people.

KEVIN: A-ha.
GABRIEL: And did a lot of different researches. We've got along, and in fact right now, we are in the middle of a spiritual yoga juice fast.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: So, it's really, fun to share that at the same time. At the Tree we do, we've evolved really 2 different fasts. One is where people who come every once a week, and what we'd just called a detox-fast.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: Then we had a spiritual fast, which is like a week-long seminar. It's really a 9-day fast. So, that's kind of what we do. It's one of the main things we focus on. So we've developed a lot of research in technology along the way with that. I think the most important thing to understand is that fasting is the most natural and most powerful way to detox. Paracelsus, the great Renaissance physician in the 16th century and so forth, talked about that the most powerful healer is fasting.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: And Hippocrates, one of the great Greek physicians, said again, that fasting is the inner doctor. So, why does fasting work? It's because it activates a vital life force, and it's the vital life force which energizes the body that gives it enough energy to detox.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: So, the model we can hold is that the cells are filled with toxins but they're also overloaded.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: And so they're not as able to get the toxins out. So when we fast, we stimulate a process of energizing the cells, and also I'm going to use it to call it a process of diffusion. What we mean by that is, as you're pulling toxins out by the act of fasting by doing what we do, eliminating in several areas, we do skin brushing which we'll talk about...we do enemas and colonics.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: We do kidney and liver cleanses. We do breathing to clear the toxins out of the lung. We help people out gas, so they, they - here in Arizona you can be in nude outside in certain areas so you are getting a whole body air cleansing. So, all those things start to pull toxins out naturally. And in that way, it starts with ...of the cells. But the key truly is the vital life force, and that's strongly activated by the power of fasting.

KEVIN: OK. And you talked about detoxification, I mean, what are some of the things that we need to detoxify from?

GABRIEL: Life!

KEVIN: [laughs]

GABRIEL: Really, we have physical toxins, emotional, mental, and spiritual toxins.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: And when people come here to Patagonia, Arizona they were getting a very, very clean air and clean water. People are able then to rest and relax because in most people in the modern day world have lost touch with their rhythm.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: What life is about, they've lost touch with the meaning about what life is about, and in essence their mission, their sacred mission in life. And so fasting is a time to reestablish so we get in touch with your sacred rhythm, your sacred design, and also get in touch with the rhythm of the planet. We live in cities, what rhythm in the planet, you know?

KEVIN: Yeah.

GABRIEL: You can't see the sunset because the skyscraper is in the way, and it's like that kind of thing. So fasting, in a deeper way, helps you reconnect with your essential self. Now that being said, we are going to focus a little bit more on the physical part of it and different fasts have different effects.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: A 7-day fast is what we do. Now we - just to be clear, there are people who come here and fasted for 80 days.

KEVIN: Wow.

GABRIEL: 90 days, and had tremendous benefits. We will talk about that a little later. I think the one-week fast is maybe most appropriate for people and a good place to start. First of all, fasting is not a new thing. It's 5000 years old. Almost every culture has done it.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: And in the animal world, dogs can fast up to 60 days. Salmon go upstream for months without food. Penguins go 3 months without food. It's part of that - the cycle of nature.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: But why one week and why has that worked well. What we found is it takes about a week according to my research to get rid of the bowel toxins. Now, where do bowel toxins come from? Well, they come from this - most people have pathogenic bacteria in the bowel.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: And because we eat too much, and we're not digesting well. And the ...pathogenic bacteria begin to take the putrefied food, and it turns into toxins.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: That's what we are talking about, specifically.

KEVIN: And those are being reabsorbed?

GABRIEL: And those get reabsorbed into the body. They go into the nervous system. They go into everywhere in the body. In 1917, just to make it clear, this is not some kind of a newfound idea, in 1917, Sedderly and Eldrich, two AMA physicians, okay?

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: Now, this is the way from what the AMA people do now. But at that time, they were on it. They cited 517 cases whereby clearing the bowel toxicity, people reverse their depression, their anxiety, their paranoia, their lethargy, their stupor, their general feeling of malaise.

KEVIN: Wow!

GABRIEL: Really impressive! Okay, so they understood that the toxicity in your bowel was affecting your - functioning of your mind. It was affecting your mood. It was affecting your clarity. OK, and it's true! The Russians had done some research with schizophrenics. And they took supposedly incurable schizophrenics and put them on a water fast. We don't really recommend water fast. There is some danger to it, but I don't even know if they have any juicers in Russia, so we'll just put it that way.

KEVIN: [laughs]

GABRIEL: And particularly when this research was done, and what they found was 28-35 days in water which is a severe water fast. That 65 percent of the schizophrenics became healed.

KEVIN: Wow!

GABRIEL: And the only time that they relapsed is that they ate meat. Now, what's the reason for that is schizophrenics have a certain metabolic pathway or some schizophrenics at least 65 percent.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: Where when they eat meat, the putrefactive bacteria produce 6 times higher 5-hydro skatole. Skatole is one of the bowel toxins. And that is what was literally making - have a schizophrenic nervous system.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: So, that's how powerful it can be. Now in 1933, Dr. Bassler cited 5000 cases where people healed from sinus, sciatica, almost every element you can think of, you know arthritis, again emotional problems, and related again to clearing the bowel toxicity. So these are not a metaphor in other words. These are real - toxins are real things. You got skatole. I'm not going to list all, ammonia.

KEVIN: And how do you know if you have them?

GABRIEL: Well, everybody has them.

KEVIN: OK. [laughs]. So this is like, this is a blanket, everyone has this. It's just a matter of how much and what levels they have?

GABRIEL: Exactly. Now, when you're fasting, when we fast because we're doing fasting all over the world, we have a fasting center in Israel as well.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: By the Dead Sea, so very much and they have seen kind way of being.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: And were having fast here, or you - you know, frequently besides our weekly 10-day detoxing. And basically if you don't like foods, and you're not overeating ... foods then you're fasting frequently, you're not going to have much bowel toxins. You'll have a little bit.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: Most people tend to build it up overtime, particularly if they aren't taking a lot of acidophilus. So, it's pretty endemic. And the good news is really in a pretty short time within 1 week, we measured the indican which is a measure for bowel toxicity.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: In 1 week, by day 6, most people, no excuse me, a hundred percent of the people we tested no longer were showing indican in their urine.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: So we pretty much know by day 6 on a juice fast, you're going to be done with your bowel toxin. And that's also about the time people's mental state begins to clear. And they begin to get a tremendous amount of energy. There's a lot of energy that you get when you get the toxins out. On a 60th birthday 4 years ago, we - on day 5 or 6, I did 601 push-ups.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: And that was something that I couldn't do while I was eating. I was up to 550 something like that. I wasn't breaking the barrier.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: The reason is, there's this - even if someone who's - you know eating the right foods, 100 percent right foods, and you know juicing, and doing all of that on a regular basis, there's certain amount of toxins that you build up. That's something in everyone.

KEVIN: OK.

GABRIEL: And just that difference of 5 days juicing cleared enough the toxins to give the extra strength. Once after a 7-day fasting, we did Mount Chester that was in the '90s. We walked up, a group of us walked up Mount Chester. Usually, it's a 2-day trip to go to 10,000 feet, and on the 2nd day you go, and you camp out, and then you go over 2000 feet.

KEVIN: A-ha.

GABRIEL: We started at 3' o clock in the morning. We reached the peak by about 11.

KEVIN: Wow.

GABRIEL: And we just walked straight too because we had that extra energy.

KEVIN: Wow. That sounds good. I think it probably just about everyone in this call could use a little extra energy. [laughs].
