The vision for a place of healing and transformation was forged by founder David Elliott when Burning Tree Ranch opened in 1999. The Ranch was designed specifically for the chronic relapser and is a true long-term recovery program. After 20 years of successfully helping scores of individuals find freedom from addiction, David saw a considerable need emerge for a short-term program that was as effective.

This realization gave birth to Renewal Lodge. Renewal Lodge by Burning Tree is a 30 to 90-day residential program treating substance abuse and co-occurring disorders. Renewal Lodge utilizes an integrated treatment approach combining evidenced-based mindfulness skills and 12 step modalities. Our staff are trained professionals passionate about treating individuals and families suffering from the consequences of addiction.
Services
In recovery, love is the foundation to personal growth and caring relationships while addiction deprives individuals of the ability to care for themselves in a loving and compassionate way. Through non-judgement and loving action, individuals at Renewal Lodge will discard behaviors that keep them from permanent recovery and trapped in patterns that lead to relapse.
Our clinical team is advanced in their knowledge and skills in working with individuals who suffer from addiction and will work to identify the patterns most likely to set clients up for relapse. Working as a team, we assess clients' needs throughout treatment, to create a plan that will support permanent sobriety.
Most people spend a majority of their life distracted from or unaware of their true nature. They swing from past to present believing the fantasies and nightmares that an untrained Mind is prone to. Every single person is capable of fully awakening to the balanced and sacred present moment.

Renewal Lodge imbues programming with activities, training, and skill development that allows the client to discover the awesome power of consciousness and clear awareness.What does it mean to live with Intention? Addiction and emotional disorders rob us of a life of purpose and true intention by hijacking our mind and forcing us to live in a primitive, egocentric mode.
Daily life at Renewal Lodge is structured and purposeful with each client expected to attend and participate in all aspects of programming. A typical day is filled with therapeutic groups including small process, wellness, mindfulness-informed 12 steps, and psychoeducational lecture-based groups.

Individual counseling sessions are provided weekly to implement highly individualized treatment plans and observe client progress throughout their treatment stay.Outside of individual and group programming, clients will participate in a community that is centered around peers being of support and service to one another.
Renewal Lodge is expanding due to the success and growth of our nationally recognized program. Renewal Lodge is a JACHO accredited residential treatment program for substance use disorders and co-occurring disorders. We are surrounded by the hill country in the Austin, Tx area and have exciting career opportunities to offer.

Amazing staff and an extremely kind community. This place really cares about the clients, with days filled with groups on recovery, and living a more positive life. Great food and activities as well. I can’t recommend this place enough. I spent 45 days here for alcohol rehabilitation.

I recently completed a thirty day treatment program thru Burning Tree, and my experience was nothing short of a miracle. The Counselors and staff were wonderful with their approach to the treatment of myself and the other clients. The Mindfulness Meditation, health and wellness, one on one counseling, and group sessions were key parts in making my experience one that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
I can't sing enough praises for the remarkable change that has taken place in my life.

This program is amazing, and one I would recommend to any friend or family member struggling with addiction. Pretty much every place will promise you a “mind, body, soul” approach to recovery, but this is the only place I’ve been that truly delivers on that promise. Renewal Lodge’s program has a double-emphasis on Buddhist-inspired mindfulness skills and techniques, combined with a traditional Big Book/12 Step education. The counseling staff is excellent, as are the medical team and administrative personnel. If you’re looking for a place that can help you or your loved one learn to love

What a wonderful experience! I have struggled with maintaining my sobriety over the years and always felt I was missing something. Renewal Lodge helped me find that missing piece which was discovered by learning and practicing mindfulness. The MIR programming (Mindfulness in Recovery) was an absolute game changer. Anyone struggling to put the pieces together would benefit greatly from Renewal Lodge. Thanks again to all the wonderful staff who made my time there more than wonderful!

The staff were present, helpful, and you could really tell they do care about making a difference. The MIR program was exceptional especially when overlapping it to the 12 step program which was equally exceptional. I want to give a special thanks to Tharin, if anyone wants to have someone walk them through the 12 steps this is the man for the job. Chance and Brent with the MIR program; opened up a different perspective on not just recovery but life as a whole and I will never forget that. I highly recommend this place for newcomers to treatment and those who can’t seem to stop relapsing. The

My experience at renewal lodge has been by far the most impactful experiences out of many treatment centers ive been to. the start of my time i was very guarded and scared to open up but i soon learned it was a safe haven with the meditation and mindfulness experience it has by far surpassed any other treatment plan in the past. fully calming my mind an bringing awareness to my daily life has brought me much peace and i would recommend this program to any struggling addict looking for a solid place of recovery.

Renewal lodge is by far the best experience I’ve ever had in a treatment center. As a chronic relapser and having been to treatment 6 times previously I can confidently say that they were the most supportive and helpful facility I have ever been to. There was never a day when I didn’t feel completely supported by any staff member. They have made such a big impact on my life and recovery and truly lead me to where I am today.

Life changing experience.
I intended to stay only 28 days initially. 2 weeks in, I asked if I could extend my stay to 90 days. I can't say enough about Renewal Lodge. The Mindfulness in Recovery program incorporated with AA's 12 steps has made all the difference for me. The staff is genuine and supportive. The counseling team is awesome. The food is even great! I would absolutely recommend Renewal Lodge to anyone needing help with addiction.
