The Relapse Prevention Plan is a model that came over from drug and alcohol treatment into the world of preventing criminal activity. Basically, it can be used to stop our maladaptive behaviors that lead us into doing things we know are not good for us.
This video gives a brief overview on what this intervention looks like and how to use it. We see John's re-offense chain and what different decisions he could have made to stay free.
It is important to be honest with ourselves and NOT make excuses for our behaviors when we are completing this. This needs to be based in reality, not what we meant or what we hoped for. We have to work with the world as it is-not what we want it to be-if we are going to stay free.
We also briefly look at different thoughts and feelings that go into each link that that makes up the relapse chain.
The information can also be found on a blog on my website www.imfreenowwhat.com if you would like it written out.
Stay free!!
