About Us

We hope that the Online Recovery Academy is a place to find tools, tips, stories, information and resources that are at best practical and at least inspirational. We try to avoid “dogma”, and rather present a variety of ideas from around the Globe – philosophy to literature, traditional psychology to holistic healing and of course the visual arts, film and music – ideas that we hope will stimulate recovery practices and expand your mind in a healthy way.

Originally conceived in Cape Town, South Africa, the Online Recovery Academy set out to develop online courses aimed at enhancing the Recovery Experience and providing various resources to support the understanding of addiction, treatment and recovery.
