SPRING INTENSIVE

OUR 14-DAY SPRING BREAK PROGRAM

Spring into Recovery with BALANCE

Pursue recovery when you need it most

Spring brings a lot of social, academic, and professional pressure.

Students are often excited about spring break. But this time of year also means a sharp spike in personal, academic, and work-related stress.

Food and body stress often rise to an all-time high with the social expectation to get “summer ready.”

These springtime pressures can mean new or worsening eating disorder symptoms. Eating disorders thrive where stress and expectations are high and daily routines are thrown out of balance.

Imagine if you or your loved one could recharge and hedge off new or escalating behaviors before they happen.

Too often, people put off recovery, fearing it will cause their school, work, or social commitments to suffer. Yet delaying treatment comes at the expense of these commitments.

But now you can access a 14-Day Spring Break Program at BALANCE.

“BALANCE has quite literally changed my life and has given me such a unique and supportive community.”
