Drug Rehab and Treatment Center for Women in Florida Moves: Orchid Recovery Center for Women Drug Rehabilitation Program; #1 Women's Specific Drug Rehabilitation Center in the World Relocates

Orchid Recovery Center for Women in Florida announces completion of its move to Palm Springs, Florida.

Lake Worth, FL (PRWEB) March 21, 2006

Women's health drug rehab center and alcohol recovery center Orchid Recovery Center for Women in Florida is proud to announce completion of its move to Palm Springs, Florida, near Palm Beach International Airport.

Just months after completing its first year of successful service providing drug rehabilitation and alcohol rehab services to hundreds of drug and alcohol addicted women, the Orchid Treatment Program has embarked upon its second year of providing ever-expanding recovery programs by moving to a new administrative office and treatment program building in Palm Springs, Florida, as well as purchasing and completing renovation of a new residence for women clients in need of a drug addiction recovery program.

Orchid Recovery Center Drug and Alcohol Treatment Program is a women’s specific drug rehabilitation program that offers a treatment approach for addiction recovery unique to women. It also serves women suffering from health issues involving mental health issues as well as co-occurring disorders and dually diagnosed patients, with substance abuse as the primary diagnosis.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs and substance abuse rehabilitation services offered by Orchid Recovery Center, developed and led by Founder Julie Queler, have been expanded with the vast increases in usable treatment, rehabilitation and residential living spaces. Orchid has not only remained a treatment center beyond comparison in its specialty and cutting edge approach to treatment of women suffering from the effects of drug addiction and alcoholism, but it has further set itself apart from the "traditional" co-ed treatment field by integrating research into the aesthetics of healing into the design of both new treatment facilities.

Orchid Recovery has also continued creation and expansion of multiple online treatment resources, including the Orchid's highly ranked drug and alcohol treatment blog, drug rehab (http://drug-rehab. orchidrecoverycenter. com), alliance with Google's own Blogger's top-ranked blog for drug treatment centers -- drug treatment centers (http://drug-treatment-centers. blogspot. com) and drug and alcohol informational Web sites, and exciting exclusive access to the most comprehensive treatment centers public benefit service on the Internet. www. treatment-centers. net, the #1 ranked treatment centers Web site on MSN, not only describes the drug and alcohol treatment services offered by Orchid Recovery Center for Women, but also includes the latest news, articles, publications and research in the field of drug and alcohol treatment and rehabilitation. It lists more than 8,000 treatment centers that help the Orchid provide the best care and referrals available to all those in need in addition to the Orchid’s large Internet resources.

Focused on providing high-quality drug and alcohol rehabilitation services for women, the Orchid now provides informational resources on the still young yet highly successful drug rehabilitation Web site and drug rehabilitation center -- www. orchidrecoverycenter. com] for marijuana rehabilitation (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/marijuana. aspx), cocaine rehab (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/cocaine. aspx), heroin rehab (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/heroin. aspx), hallucinogens rehab (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/hallucinogens. aspx), inhalants rehabilitation (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/inhalants. aspx), prescription drug rehab (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/prescription-drugs. aspx), and, most insidious, alcoholism rehabilitation (http://www. orchidrecoverycenter. com/alcohol-alcoholism. aspx), alcohol rehab and resource information. Because it offers 24-hour free professional drug addiction, alcoholism, and mental health assessments by trained experts in the field -- many of whom have personally recovered from drug use and alcohol abuse -- the drug and alcohol rehab center is able to provide empathetic and understanding guidance to those suffering from the devastating effects of addiction and alcoholism.

Orchid has continued updates of its original Web site drug and alcohol rehab services for women and plans to use the Internet to continue to help as many people as possible. Such efforts include a forthcoming pressroom at women’s rehabilitation, maintenance of the drug treatment center and drug rehab blogs, as well as current public benefit drug, alcohol and mental health outreach efforts through its close relationships with drug treatment centers -- www. treatment-centers. net] and other rehabilitation centers.

Orchid Recovery Center’s drug rehab programs, intensive outpatient, day treatment, and day/night setup of residential treatment services while living at a separate yet equally therapeutic setting enable the rehab center to rapidly expand and offer a continually broadening range of holistic treatment services, which it seamlessly melds with traditional 12-Step recovery philosophies, as well as modalities based on the latest empirical research into the treatment of drug-addicted women and all who suffer from alcohol abuse and other chemical dependency related illnesses.

Orchid Recovery Center continues research into largely unexplored areas of women's health, such as the relationship between hormonal changes in women and their relationship to addiction and alcoholism. Concepts, like the effect of the aesthetic properties of a drug treatment setting on treatment outcome, client retention rate for periods longer than a traditional 30-day rehabilitation stay and long term success rates, keep Orchid Recovery Center in Palm Springs, Florida, setting the bar for quality of care in women's health and recovery from drug addiction, alcoholism and co-occurring disorders, such as trauma, sex addiction, eating disorders and bi-polar disorders.

The Orchid helps women with addictive related illnesses ranging everywhere from eating disorders and codependency to depression issues to mental health treatment as an adjunct to primary substance abuse treatment. These approaches into the base nature of addiction in women are synthesized into a comprehensive drug treatment philosophy and total mind/body recovery and rejuvenation program.

Employees at the new Orchid Recovery Center for Women in Palm Springs, Florida, and Drug Treatment and Alcohol Rehab Programs look forward to hearing from community members and establishing linking relationships with other high quality drug and alcohol rehabilitation services and health informational websites. We help individuals suffering from drug addiction, alcoholism, substance abuse and other co-occurring disorders access the finest treatment available, and invite you to join us and take part in the center's expanding visibility on search engines to provide no-cost drug and alcohol abuse assessments and affordable, exclusive rehabilitation (insurance accepted) to women in need of drug treatment and alcohol rehab services.

In order to achieve such success it is vital to discover ways to give back to oneself. In order to feed others we must be fed. "

To help women make fitness a part of their daily lives, Tam offers the following advice:
 Start with small steps: Less is more, so try to be consistent with a light introduction rather than a killer workout that will have you sore and out of commission for weeks.

 Try a few different fitness modalities: See what works for you. Dedicate a month to experimenting with different classes, such as boot camp, yoga, belly dance, hiking, etc. Then figure out a blend of what you'd like to stick with and create a schedule from there.

 Eat well: Fitness is only half of it. Combine healthy green eating and cut out the white flour, white sugars and coffee! Try supplementing with whole grains, agave nectar, honey, and organic chai teas with rice or soy milk instead. Drink close to a gallon of water a day and keep your body fresh and fluid!

Record for New Home Sales in Wake County Shattered

Record for New Home Sales in Wake County Shattered

Despite a national cool down in new home sales, homebuyers are flocking to Amberly in Cary, N. C. at a record pace. In only its first full year of home sales, the master-planned community has easily surpassed the area's new home sales record, defying the national trend.

Cary, N. C. (PRWEB) December 13, 2006

Amberly, a master-planned community located in Cary, N. C., has surpassed the Wake County mark for most contracted new home sales by a residential community for a calendar year.

Amberly has recorded 573 contracted homes sales through Oct. 1, 2006. The previous mark for contracted sales by a Triangle community, set between Jan. 1 - Dec. 31 2005, was 475.

"We're extremely pleased at the response we've received from homebuyers, not just in the Triangle, but from those relocating here from around the country," said Bob Jones, general manager for Amberly and GS Carolina's Raleigh division.

The home sales at Amberly have been powered by KB Home's Lexington Park, Arlington Park and Washington Square neighborhoods, which combined for 182 homes sales, and the state's first Del Webb active adult community, Carolina Preserve at Amberly, with 331 sales. Pulte Homes' Blackstone neighborhood sold 60 homes.

To date, Amberly has sold 725 homes, and its Arlington Park and Blackstone neighborhoods are on the verge of selling out. With homebuilders 1st American Builders and Royal Oaks Building Group recently breaking ground at The Peninsula at Amberly, a custom home neighborhood, the community is expected to continue its record breaking sales pace through the end of the year. The Bedford Builder Group, a team of premier local and regional homebuilders, is expected to begin construction and home sales at Amberly's Village Square neighborhood later this year.

"The development and builder team set its goals very high for Amberly, and the homebuilders deserve the credit for delivering," said Jones. GS Carolina expects the pace to continue next year as it begins to roll out the community's amenities.

The developer is currently constructing the community's residents' club and additional amenities that represent Four Elements of Amberly - Education, Wellness, Environment and Technology. "We expect these concepts, along with the unmatched lifestyles and opportunities they provide, to continue to establish Amberly as the premier community in the Triangle area," said Jones.

The Residents' Club at Amberly, a state-of-the-art facility that will offer programs designed and managed by UNC Health Care, is set to open in the first quarter of 2007. UNC Health Care is also developing the UNC Wellness Center at Amberly, a comprehensive medical fitness facility with membership opportunities available to Amberly residents and the general public.

Amberly is situated on the western edge of Cary, NC, one and a half miles southwest of the Research Triangle Park, and is located just off Highway 55. The community spans 1,100 acres and includes approximately 5,000 homesites.

Avoid Stress to Secure Energy and Vitality

Avoid Stress to Secure Energy and Vitality

Stress is inevitable but things can be done to avoid its negative effects and maintain a good level of energy and vitality.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) July 28, 2006

After a long day's work, it is natural to feel drained and tired. Working on any task for about five hours or more can really lessen a person's energy and vitality. Stress is the most common factor for loss of energy and vitality especially among people who work everyday. Stress is also the most known factor contributing to a person's risk of getting sick.

Stress is inevitable, and it's even omnipresent. In clinical language, it is any physical or psychological stimulus resulting in the production of mental tension or physiological reactions. If understood and handled well, stress can lead a person to regaining his/her energy and vitality and to living a healthier life. But if not, illnesses and even fatal diseases can arise.

Deadlines, finances, relationship or marital problems, work or profession, school, existing ailment, and other emotional or psychological disturbances are the most common causes of mental or emotional stress. Lack of sleep, poor nutrition, sedentary lifestyle, and very tiring activities are on the other hand leading roots of physical stress. Doctors, however, claim that mental stress reduces a person's energy and vitality more than the physical stressors do.

When the body detects stress, it naturally responds to it. When the mind is stressed, the brain releases chemicals that cause headache, prompting us to do something about it. The same happens when your leg or arm muscles are already tired and weary. But these bodily responses do not automatically result to regaining energy and vitality. The way we respond to these natural body responses are the determinants of stress reduction.

Different individuals respond to stress in many varying ways. Most resort to smoking cigarettes because of its calming effect, others drink alcohol, some go to the gym and work out, others rest and meditate. These responses are responsible to successful and unsuccessful regaining of lost energy and vitality.

The primary step to avoid or mitigate the effects of stress is to know where it is coming from. Once the source is identified, you can then think of a way on how to deal with it. But don't just deal with it, but deal with it properly. Overdoing your response to stress can yield to more damaging results. Excessive alcohol intake and even exercise can result to further negative implications. Your response should be something sustainable (can be regularly done and in right frequency) and basically safe and beneficial. Evaluating your lifestyle (eating habits, physical activities, etc.), having a positive outlook in life, excellent time management, and balancing your priorities are what most doctors would say some of the best ways to avoid stress and prevent surmountable loss of energy and vitality.

Having enough energy and vitality is crucial for our survival throughout our life. The amount of energy and vitality we acquire, lose, and regain will determine our body's longevity in this stress-filled world. There's no way we can get rid of stress, it's as constant as change. But we can do ways to avoid or lessen its effects. Stress is embedded in our nature and just like everything that is, it exists for a purpose. It's up to us to know how to optimize the possible good effects it can give by knowing how to properly deal with it.
