Why Peer Support?
Our Peer Recovery, Reentry & Crisis Response Services are built on the foundation of shared experience and trust. Our trained Peer Recovery Specialists understand the challenges of mental health recovery, substance use recovery, reentry, and crisis situations firsthand and provide compassionate, judgment-free support. We believe in empowering individuals to create meaningful change in their lives through mindfulness, self-compassion, and community support.
Harm Reduction & Mindfulness: Finding the Middle Path
At InStill Mindfulness, we embrace both harm reduction and mindfulness as compassionate, nonjudgmental approaches to improved well-being.
Both harm reduction and mindfulness are ultimately about reducing suffering. Instead of reinforcing cycles of guilt, shame, or all-or-nothing thinking, these approaches encourage:
- Nonjudgmental Awareness: Meeting ourselves and others where we are without labeling experiences as “good” or “bad.”
- Compassionate Change: Small, meaningful steps toward well-being, rather than forced or unrealistic expectations.
- The Middle Path: Avoiding extremes—whether complete indulgence or harsh self-denial—to cultivate balance, resilience, and self-acceptance.
