Clean Living for Individuals
age 18 and over

At New Summits Wellness Center, we are focused on providing clean living for those seeking a more mindful way of life.
Our wellness plan is four fold:
~Mental Wellness Intervention,
~Hedonic Restructuring,
~Development of a Healthy Work Ethic
~Pet Therapy
Residential students at the New Summits Wellness Center will have rich experiences that incorporate all four of these elements into their daily lives:
~Mental Wellness Intervention includes morning meditations, daily psychoeducational groups, and weekly off site individual depth therapy sessions with a Doctor of Psychology.
~Hedonic Restructuring is an essential element in healing the brain's pleasure feedback systems. This is accomplished via various outdoor activities here at New Summits, including ice skating at the outdoor skating rink located right on the property, cross country skiing, mountain biking, boating on the nearby lake, mushroom hunting, etc.
~Our students learn a healthy work ethic while participating at the local artisan bakery. They are taught the specialized process of baking various breads and pastries originating from Austria, and may even work the farmer's market where it is sold.
~Pet therapy has been proven to improve mental health. Bernese Mountain Dogs are a natural fit in this beautiful Alpine environment. Here, students may care for and keep a puppy of their own, if desired.
"We've got our rope and summit
Got our rope and summit
But we need to wake up
Baby, wake up
Unmasking your fears
One by one, see them disappear
Into the fog down below
Slipping is fine as long as you don't fall
Still in the quiet morning breeze
Swaying gently in unsuspecting dreams
Clues of a gathering storm
It's time to wake up, time to move on"
