LifeRing Ireland is part of the International LifeRing Secular Recovery groups originally based in California. Each individual empowers their sober self.

LSR Ireland follows the three S's of LifeRing.

Sobriety which means total abstinence. We deal with all drug and alcohol related addictions (poly addictions). LifeRing does not support moderation or harm reduction techniques.

Secular approach means LifeRing is not "faith based" in any way. Discussion of religion or spirituality does not occur in meetings. Any personal beliefs are a private matter and not appropriate to LSR meetings or email lists.

Self-help is our method of empowering the sober person within each of us. Meetings and lists provide a workshop environment for building an individual recovery plan.
