The best place for addiction recovery is your own home.

There is little doubt that the strongest action you can take against your addiction is to attend the 4-day seminar, AVRT: The Course, conducted by Jack Trimpey in California. When scheduling or finances stand in the way of that solution, AVRT: Live is the next best thing to being there.

AVRT: Live is a video recording of the entire curriculum of AVRT: The Course presented by Jack Trimpey to a chronically addicted alcohol and polydrug user. You can watch his progress from hopelessness to freedom, clearly showing the typical resistances, illusions, and misconceptions that make up his Addictive Voice. Once you have learned the basics of AVRT-based recovery, Mr. Trimpey will directly challenge you to follow through with your own Big Plan, and provide a plenty of information that will help you secure total recovery.
