  1. Grasshopper Philosophy

Five Principles

PreviousThe Medical ProblemNextEducation

Last updated 9 months ago

Grasshopper Philosophy is rooted in our first principles approach for individuals looking to recover from addiction:

  1. We express a sincere desire to quit addictions.

  2. We remain free from addiction.

For those familiar with the traditional step programs, this will have a sense of comfort.

But unlike traditional step programs, Grasshopper Philosophy is built around consistently working all five of these principles in complete sync.

"We built Grasshopper Philosophy with the belief that getting individuals on the flywheel to improving and bettering their life is more effective than the treadmill."

🌄
We educate ourselves about the undeniable damages.
We build up faith and motivation that we can be healthier.
We focus all our efforts on lifestyle and mindset betterment.
