Support
Scientific studies have continued to demonstrate that connecting with others has powerful healing effects. Listening and being heard are constant sources of renewal. At the Rice Diet Program support comes in a variety of forms. Whether it’s on the walking trail with an encouraging friend or at The Rice House in a group session you’ll find examples and opportunities for this kind of interaction and support every day.
We work together to continuously create a caring and cooperative community. Many find tremendous comfort in simply being here surrounded by others with similar fears, similar goals, and similar experiences. New friendships are often formed within the first hour as participants join together to offer encouragement, begin an exercise program, go to the movies or just share a laugh. Others find that working as part of a community in professionally led group sessions brings considerable support as new coping strategies are discovered and communicated.
