At the core of Integral Recovery is Integral Recovery Practice, a sophisticated system of personal development that is specifically designed for those in recovery, which engages body, mind, heart, and spirit to produce extraordinary health and awakening on all levels of our being. Also central to Integral Recovery is the AQAL map, a conceptual framework that helps illuminate the disease of addiction—and the journey of recovery—in comprehensive and compassionate terms.

The Worm’s Waking
There is a worm addicted to eating grape leaves. Suddenly, he wakes up, call it Grace, whatever, something wakes him, and he is no longer a worm. He is the entire vineyard, and the orchard too, the fruit, the trunks, a growing wisdom and joy that does not need to devour.
John’s blog, The Addition Worm, is inspired by this masterful poem by Rumi.

The Integral Recovery Model for Drug and Alcohol Addiction – by John Dupuy (with Marco Morelli) – 5.9 MB (please wait for download)This article describes the Integral Recovery model in some detail, including an overview of the AQAL framework. It shows how the AQAL (“all quadrants, all stages, all lines, all states, and all types”) approach offers a refreshingly new way of looking at addiction, opening the possibility of a much more integrated and effective treatment modality.

This Integral Recovery article is published in AQAL: Journal of Integral Theory & Practice, Fall 2007, Vol. 2, No. 3. Confronting the Collective Shadow (PDF) - by John Dupuy – After spending a month teaching about Integral Recovery in Germany, John reflects on the power of the collective shadow: "transformed, it becomes the raw energy and power for positive evolution, creativity, compassion, healing, and hope of and for the future."
