  Canning – Shame and sex addiction

The Meadows’ Sexual Recovery program offers a progressive, five-day workshop for individuals with compulsive sexual behaviors.  While we are often hesitant to discuss our sexual feelings and experiences, many people carry burdens of shame and painful memories of unresolved sexual experiences or uncontrolled sexual behaviors. But sexual drive can be a positive and productive life force that, when appropriately managed, impels us to form relationships that inspire us to live better lives.  This inner drive is explored – with compassion, humor, and zest for life — as participants are reminded that sex can be enjoyable, fulfilling, and deeply meaningful.

The staff at The Meadows can help alleviate the shame, dilemmas, and self-destructive behaviors often at the core of unhealthy sexual acting-out. This workshop addresses:

• Sexual obsessions and extreme drive
• Uncontrollable use of cybersex
• Public flashing
• Habitual masturbation, with or without the use of pornographic materials
• Swinging or the urge to have multiple partners
• Finding satisfaction in using prostitutes and frequenting places that are sexual in nature, e.g., sex shops and peeping/strip clubs

The Sexual Recovery workshop is especially helpful for individuals who want to:

• Begin the process of recovery
• Avoid relapse
• Obtain support and tools necessary to maintaining recovery

The workshop broadens many participants’ perspectives about sexuality, as they learn how to have productive experiences, maintain positive relationships, and avoid the harmful patterns of the past.

The Sexual Recovery workshop meets from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, on the following dates:
