The Greenery Recovery Center is a nonprofit organisation for substance abuse and behavioral addiction recovery located in Gokarna, India. Mikhail Nefedov, his son Alexander and the followers of the 12 step program have created a unique atmosphere amidst the southern Indian jungle for substance addicts to obtain sobriety through the use of a variety of meditative holistic practices to help them towards their goals while offering a superior support system.

This private non-profit organization is promoted by qualified professionals with human values. The idea is conceptualised by recovered alcoholics / addicts, who have done an immense research on the subject.

After many years of battling addiction the team members finally found a solution in the 12 step program. Therefore, the Greenery Recovery Center’s goal is to help addicts and in particular to share their unique experience in overcoming this addiction. It is a non-religious organisation, so everyone is welcome there. Addiction can happen to anybody. There is no specific sex, occupation, family background, or education that has exception, but when there is addiction one surely needs specialized therapy. The center is completely free of charge and its friendly staff is ready to welcome anyone in need, any time. There are many people who consider use of alcohol for recreational or on social occasions as normal and acceptable, but little is their awareness that even this carries risk of road traffic injuries, socially inappropriate or embarrassing behavior. Alcohol and other substance abuse not only damages the body of the person abusing but can have a harmful impact much more than himself. His/her own life can take adverse effects like disrupted marriage and family life, loss of job, unemployment and stigmatisation.

The Greenery Recovery Center is enabling these unfortunate incidental addicts to relinquish and lead an independent normal life, which they had before developing dependency. The program is a combination of the traditional 12 steps program, mindfulness meditation techniques based on their own successful experiences and yoga classes. Greenery Recovery Center’s techniques also include group support and the supervision of counselors. Knowing that the personal counselors have been through the same experiences as the recovering alcoholics / addicts, and are well qualified to assist them.

Among the services Offered you can find 12 Step, AA & NA Meetings, Alcoholism Treatment, Drug Addiction Treatment, Family Services, Free Treatment, Relapse Prevention, Substance Abuse Counselling, Yoga and Meditation, and Sport activities.
