Belle's Foundation for Self Realization

Belle's Foundation for Self Realization is a non profit organization which addresses healing from self inflicted actions. It is the home of Belle’s House a residential transformation program that offers an amazing 6-12 month holistic, transformation program specifically created for women who are wanting more than anything to eliminate their addictions and are willing to follow through the program completely.
The program has been designed to walk every guest who comes to Belle’s House, through a complete transformation. The program is based on science, body, mind & soul. Not one of them is more important than the other.
At Belle’s House, the women who stay with us are treated like goddesses, possibly for the first times in their lives. We believe in kindness, understanding, and love for each and every woman that walk through our doors.
Anyone who spends any time contributing to the functions at Belle’s House practices the understanding of Namaste which simply put means my spirit honours your spirit. They have also had to of experience the effects of addictions in their own personal lives, either through their own recovery from addictions or through the effects of someone they loved being an addict/alcoholic.
Belle’s House operates from a place of understanding, and unless someone has experienced directly the pain addictions bring then, we don’t believe they can truly understand. That experience is not taught in classrooms.

We often hear people say, the past is dead, it’s over, it’s finished, but we disagree. Addictions are manifested into our everyday lives as a result of being in a constant state of pain and a lack of belonging in this world while growing up. Most of us growing up were not given the necessary tools we needed to grow into life making the most of ourselves. A lot of us were raised in survival mode, not knowing what to expect from moment to moment in our personal lives, we dealt with it the only way we could. We formed ideas about ourselves and our world that corresponded to what we lived and saw everyday. And with every passing day we grew into those ideas and beliefs. We do things today based on the understanding we acquired about ourselves and this world when we were growing up.
Then one day we find ourselves all grown up, still hurting ourselves, but the hurt has progressed into hurting anyone who has loved us especially our children. We carry on hurting as they create their own ideas of themselves and their world by the example we as parents have shown them, the cycle continues.
It’s all such a tight knotted ball, and unfortunately there is no magic spell to change, it only happens when the price to pay for continuing to self destruct becomes too high to pay, and you find yourself with 2 choices either you have to change and go in a different direction, or you stay in the same direction and die that way.
love & light,
