The world of Addiction Recovery has changed dramatically over the years, and we are excited to offer a program that will teach you the keys to implement a recovery approach that will include the whole person, a truly holistic certification program that will include the following:

PROGRAM: This program was designed with David's 20 years of addiction recovery work one on one with clients, his own personal experiences of recovery from several addictions, and his intense study in the fields of spirituality (including meditation, prayer, unique spiritual paths for every individual, and full surrender), emotional recovery and freedom, family/environment/peer pressure causes of addiction, The first 3 steps of 12 Step program, nutritional supplementation for brain chemistry balance, exercise, behavior change techniques, resentment release/deep forgiveness work, cross addiction, the power of writing and recovery, accountability procedures, the underlying cause of all addictions, aftercare implementation and much, much more.

Types of addictions to be discussed area alcohol, drugs, food, smoking, sexual, thoughts, religion/spirituality, behavior, beliefs and more. This course would be suitable not only for those who would like to become holistic recovery coaches, but also, parents, therapists, teachers, nurses , ministers, life coach's, other addiction recovery specialists, police, firefighters, EMS, counselors, athletic coach's, partner's of those struggling with addictions and anyone who has a desire to know more about this incredible new field of treatment.

The face of addiction is ever changing, and the shame of admitting that we even have an addiction of any type keeps millions of people in the USA chained to habits, substances and behaviors that keeps them from living a joyful happy and successful life for years and years. Through the power of our life coaching program, this does not have to be the case anymore.

David Essel, Master Life Coach and Hay House author, has developed a program that helps to create a total mind, body, spirit based recovery system for each individual based on their specific needs and circumstances. Nutrition, spiritual practices, exercise, emotional support systems and even financial management are all included to ensure the ultimate success for each individual.

David's own recovery began in 1996, and continues to this very day. And in his own words, will joyously continue to be a part of his daily routine for the rest of his life. He uses the word "joyously", as he has seen the impossible happen. Where once he could not have imagined a day without alcohol or drug use, he now enthusiastically approaches each day with passion and wonder and helps others to do the same.

Over the past 20 years, David has helped thousands of people become free of every type of addiction imaginable, including but not limited to:

  • Alcohol Addiction

  • Drugs & Substances such as cocaine, marijuana, nicotine & prescription

  • Relationships & Codependency

  • Sex/masturbation

  • Power/Career

  • Self Image & Esteem Issues

  • Food

  • Persistent or Returning Negative Thoughts & Attitude

  • Attachment, phobia and repression
     

David has experienced both traditional and non traditional forms of recovery, and is blessed to be able to offer his clients a unique combination of both in his uniquely crafted recovery program. The reasons behind addiction to substances, negative thinking, sex, food, greed, wealth, shopping or control may be similar or vastly different between the clients he has worked with over the years, but the path to freedom will be the same for all. Self knowledge, surrender, education, action, and application combined with an open mind. David can help you learn how to:

  • Build a deeper spiritual foundation

  • Deal with crisis and chaos

  • Manage stress

  • Overcome Procrastination

  • Improve Communication at home or work

  • Heal from the loss of a love relationship

  • Rebuild after divorce or loss of a love relationship


Why a full mind/body/spirit program is essential to learn for long term recovery:

  • Spirituality

  • Exercise

  • Diet

  • Supplements

  • Meditation

  • Motivation

  • Behavior/belief change techniques

  • Steps 1, 2 and 3 of the 12 Step Model

Through the power of both talk and written coaching practices, each person discovers not just the "whys" of their addiction, but also the "how's" needed to move to a new existence. As a holistic recovery coach you will learn how to guide your clients through all of these processes.

See What Clients Have to Say...

"The 30 day addiction recovery program David offers is amazing and effective. I grew tremendously, understood my addiction for the first time and learned and practiced the holistic and practical steps to overcome it. We addressed the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual and social aspects of my life and my addiction. This was a life changing program for me and now I have my health back. I wasn’t ready when I started and also thought I could change on my own but I’m so glad I made the call for David’s help. David has a gift for listening, drawing out the core issues living beneath the surface and running the show, removing the power of the ego and the addiction and allowing you to take that power back to live the life of your dreams that you were meant to live.” ~~Anonymous

"Having reached the age of 54 and remembering my drinking going back about 39 of those years I new it was time for a lifestyle change. Asking for Divine Intervention and receiving the answer I needed, I decided to take the next step. I had not seen David in approximately 15 years, and thought maybe he could help. It was the phone call that put me on my way to better understanding of who I was, and who I wanted to be. Through David's unique way of letting you do the work by asking the questions so you find the answers by yourself, gives you a feeling of empowerment and self worth. Now I feel that when I use his methods daily I can be productive and happy. I have a peace within me. So to all of you reading this, read the book at least. SLOW DOWN and smell the roses life has to offer." A grateful client and lasting friend Howard Ho Itel.
p.s. David I have no problem if you use my name. You have given me the power over my life to not be ashamed of anything. Love and Peace

"Before joining David's 30 Day Recovery Program, I had been in and out of sobriety programs for several years. I'm educated, a professional job, a family, yet had no idea of what a true holistic, mind, body, spirit program really looked like. Skeptical? Yes. Nervous to commit to something for 30 days? Yes. I'm now entering my 8 month mark of sobriety, and everything he told me is coming true, if I just continued with my daily program. My family life has improved dramatically, I feel more centered in life, my body has improved and I now have an understanding of where, and why my addiction was so prevalent in my life. DO NOT WAIT! If you want to find a program that offers real results, call David Now." Joseph and Family

"I wanted to save my marriage, and knew what I was doing was wrong, that alcohol was turning me into a liar to my wife, interfering with my work, and creating chaos in our marriage. But I did not know how to change it on my own. I reached out to David, but had no idea that I could change so many things, including my attitude and my understanding of God, in such a short period of time!

His program was exactly what I needed to get focused, and to have a daily plan to follow to get me back on track. In all my years of church, which I love, I really did not believe that God, as I understood Him, could love me so personally, and care about me, my marriage, and my sobriety so deeply.

David's program and caring, has led me to a whole new life, I kid you not! At my age, I wasn't sure at all , that this could all happen, especially in just 30 days. It's been a miracle for me, and has proven to me that anyone can change at any age, and get the life of love and peace they want.

I truly recommend that anyone who wants a new life, a great, great life, should work with David and his program. My wife now tells me everyday, that our marriage is better now than it has ever been over the past 40 years! And she's right! Our thanks are very deep, and from our heart. "
(Mark, 85 years old, graduate of David's 30 day recovery program)

"I cannot thank you enough for the changes you inspired in both me and my wife. No wonder my whole life before was a struggle just to get motivated, when I was drinking. She has not had any drinks since we started this program. Through your program, the awakening was very powerful. We both are working out everyday, I have already lost close to 20 lbs . It is wonderful to see my children so happy that we are not drinking. Thanks again for all you have done to better our lives. I will never forget it." David

"When I first meet David my entire life was totally unmanageable and I was spinning out of control in every aspect of my life. I had been using drugs and alcohol for 38 yrs. Financially - I was at my bottom. Personally - I was in losing my with wife and child after over a 1 ˝ yr. of going thru a divorce. Health – I had lost over 30 lbs and taking many prescriptions drugs. Spiritually – I was a lost soul. David got me to agree to get sober off alcohol and drugs for one day. I knew I had a problem with drugs and alcohol, however I could not go to rehab for 30 days and miss work as I felt like I would lose my job. David put me on his 30 day program, for me it was like checking into a rehab. As his program held me accountable every day and night for 30 days. TODAY I am sober and thinking like I did 20 years ago. Making clear and concise decisions. My wife and I are working on reconciling our marriage. I have a plan for my finances. My health is improving everyday with eating right and exercise. I am finding my soul and have surrendered my life to “My Higher Power”. David’s program is not just a program that is pre-design for one fits all. He customized a program that I personally needed for my life and it is working for me. He is truly a life coach. David has opened many doors in my life and helped show me the way to personal growth. David is a VERY thought provoking person.
“Most important I am sober TODAY” with David’s program that was designed for me." — Randy (30 day program graduate)

"Working with David on sexual addictions has transformed my life. I no longer dwell in guilt and self disgust from my behavior. I am able to experience the overwhelming emotion, accept it for what it is and let it go. This change did not happen overnight, it is something that I work on moment by moment. By applying the tools I received I am learning to love and accept myself and am taking a deeper look into the cause of the addiction, not the addiction itself. The investment of time and money in working with David has brought about a change in many areas of my life. I highly recommend his work, he has been a vehicle of Gods love and blessings to me." — Wendy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Prior to working with David ,for 10 years, my food addiction was my way to deal with stress. Whenever my boyfriend and I would argue, I would retreat to my bedroom with a bowl of ice cream to numb my pain. As my weight fluctuated, it would create more unhappiness in me, and more struggles in our relationship. Within 12 weeks, with David's program, I was so surprised to see that there was no need to reach for food, as through his program of learning to deal with my emotions, love myself, and surrender to the cravings, everything changed! 10 years of depending on food to cover emotions was gone! I highly encourage anyone looking from freedom from addictions to call David. It is fantastic, my life has changed forever. " — Susan (30 day program graduate)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Please accept my sincere gratitude for guiding me on the path to sobriety. It was your experience, knowledge, and dedication that illuminated my darkness and despair, just when I truly believed there was no hope for me. I had far too many fruitless attempts in battling the insidious, cunning, and baffling disease of alcoholism to believe I could be saved. You showed me, a weary shell of a soul, that if I used the right tools and completely surrendered myself to my higher power, that sobriety is not impossible, in fact, it is promised! What a wonderful gift! My self-esteem was at an immeasurable low, my credibility, after so many broken promises, nil. Early in our sessions, you showed me how important forgiving myself and others would be if I were to attain my goal. Further, as one just circling the drain, you helped me understand that asking for help is not a weakness -- as I always believed -- but a strength, the right thing to do! Thanks to you and your wonderful, insightful program, I have abandoned my previous system of beliefs and now have built a firm foundation based on the fact that I have choices, options. Although, at times, we all make mistakes and poor choices, I know now that I choose to stay on the path to a fulfilling, meaningful, sober life." —
With deep gratitude, Suzann
