True North Recovery

Aurora House opened in December of 2015. In addition to requiring residents to work a 12th step program, we watched the situations that would derail a woman’s recovery and started building accountability and activities to help women stay sober through the most difficult times. Today, in addition to traditional sober house accountability, we work with residents on:
Building a daily spiritual program
Self care and meditation
Balance- i.e. balancing recovery with life, relationships, building a routine to help them thrive, time management.
Building a community of sober women
What We Do
|
Accountability Weekly check-ins help keep us on the right path to achieve long term recovery. We check in on our recovery programs and if we are struggling, work together to figure out what's in our way and how to get back on track. |
Spirituality Our residents are required to work at 12 step program with a sponsor, attend women's meetings, and learn to be of service to others. We learn how to create relationships that will strengthen us to become the women we are meant to be. |
Daily Inventory Mornings begin with coffee and meditation and evenings end with a daily inventory. Through support and shared experiences, we begin to learn humility, tolerance, and real kindness and begin to transform into the women we want to be. |
Community Being sober doesn't mean being boring! We host sober events throughout the year including anniversary parties, sober Olympics and a day at the lake. |
|
Healing The Aurora House is a comfortable home in the safest neighborhood in St. Paul, where women can rest, rebuild, and begin their recovery journey. |
Service Work Our house is founded on helping others and being of service to anyone who comes across our path. Building relationships through service work is a pillar element of our curriculum. |
Self Care / Balance Being sober doesn't mean being boring! We host sober events throughout the year including anniversary parties, sober Olympics and a day at the lake. |
House Meetings Many of us start recovery knowing how to care for others but not ourselves. Residents help each other create a sustainable routine focused on meeting self care needs and creating a healthy balance that prioritize recovery first. |
