Each month, In the Rooms and Seeking Integrity Treatment Centers present an online Super Saturday Recovery Summit. These events have proven to be an overwhelming success, with three experts on recovery discussing and answering questions on topics related to both early and longer-term sobriety and healing.

Our next Super Saturday Recovery Summit is set for Saturday, November 21st. Presenters at this month’s summit include Kelley Gunter, Dr. Stephen Dansiger, and Ken Page.

Her first book, You Have Such a Pretty Face, details the emotional journey of being obese and the surprising changes brought on by her 243-pound weight loss, as well as the emotional factors (including childhood abuse) that contributed to her initial weight gain. She is currently in the process of writing her second memoir, The Homecoming Queen of Crazy Town. In this Super Saturday session, Kelley will discuss weight loss surgery and its impact on and interaction with addiction.

In his SSRS presentation, he will discuss anger management and its role in 12 Step recovery, as well as a number of other recovery models for a variety of difficulties. He will also talk about how Mindfulness can provide the foundation for managing anger and other strong emotions, providing the support necessary for sustainable long-term recovery.
