The Greenery Recovery Center was founded in India in 2014 by followers of the 12 step program. After many years of battling addiction our team members finally found solution in the 12 step program. Our goal is to help and support addicts and in particular to share our unique experiences in overcoming addiction.

Our program is a combination of the traditional 12 steps program, mindfulness meditation techniques based on our experiences and yoga classes. The program is by non-religious so all are welcome. Our techniques also include group support and the provision of counselors. Our personal counselors have been through the same experiences as you and are well qualified to assist you.

Our center is completely free of charge! Our friendly staff is ready to welcome you any time!

In the Greenery Recovery Center, they understand meditation as Mindfulness Meditation. It is a modern adaptation of Buddhist meditation called « Vipassana » that consists of focusing on emotions, thoughts or sensations, that happen in the present moment. Mindfulness meditation is widespread in the Western world and is used as a method of psychotherapy in treating depression and chronic stress. At sunrise in the Greenery Recovery Center, they practice Kundalini Yoga. This allows the participants to achieve harmony between body and soul, and get energy for the whole day. The training and sport activities are also very important in the Greenery Recovery Center.

As the Latin says, « Mens sana in corpore sano ». Therefore, their playground is almost always busy and the staff organises volleyball battles, canoeing adventures and lot’s of other fun activities.

In 2018, Greenery Recovery Center’s volunteers and activists from all over the world held a sports event in Shanghai in honor of the anniversary of the organization.

The Greenery Recovery Center also participated at the 41st Annual Alcohol Epidemiology Symposium of the Kettil Bruun Society in Munich, on June 1-5, 2015.
