The Retreat Auckland provides an accessible, educational recovery program firmly rooted in 12-Step principles. Located on a beautiful campus in Auckland, New Zealand, this supportive environment brings together individuals seeking recovery with those who have already navigated the journey through addiction. What makes The Retreat unique is its foundation in peer support—instructors and mentors come directly from the active Al-Anon and AA volunteer community, all in recovery themselves and dedicated to strengthening the recovery community. The program emphasizes spiritual growth through prayer, meditation, and quiet reflection, with the Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book serving as its cornerstone. Participants engage in a structured daily routine that includes meditation practices, Big Book study groups, living sober discussions, lecture presentations, community meetings, and regular AA meetings. This affordable program offers individuals, families, and communities affected by substance dependence a renewed sense of strength and hope, fostering quality of life improvements through authentic connection and proven 12-Step methodology. The Retreat creates a welcoming space where visitors can find meaningful peer support in their recovery journey.
