Recovery Education Center | By the Sea Recovery San Diego
The Recovery Education Center provides evidence-based educational resources on sober living, addiction, recovery, relapse prevention, wellness, mental health, and family support. Free and available to residents, families, and anyone researching recovery options.
By the Sea Recovery asks residents to commit to a minimum stay of 90 days while practicing daily routines and accountability in its eight-bed San Marcos sober living home.
Education Topics
- The Neuroscience of Addiction — how addiction changes the brain and what recovery looks like neurologically
- Understanding Recovery — stages of recovery, recovery capital, and building a recovery-focused life
- Relapse Prevention — warning signs, high-risk situations, and evidence-based strategies
- Mental Health in Recovery — co-occurring disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and dual-diagnosis awareness
- Family and Relationships — family roles in addiction, rebuilding trust, healthy communication
- Wellness, Sleep, and Nutrition — physical health as a foundation for lasting recovery
- Employment and Life Skills — rebuilding career, finances, and daily independence in recovery
By the Sea Recovery is structured sober living, not a treatment center. Residents may continue care with independent outside providers. Those services are not provided by BTS.
Visiting Your Loved One
The First 30 Days
Visitors are not allowed at the house during a resident’s first 30 days, giving him time to settle into the house rules and routine. Residents can come and go during the day within house expectations and curfew. Family visits at the house are uncommon; appropriate, healthy family involvement may include invitations to planned celebrations or special events.
