The Way to Happiness
The Way to Happiness provides people with a sensible and practical guide to better living. The 21 guiding principles comprise a moral code, one attuned to a world desperately in need of a moral compass.
Life Skills
Our Life Skills courses are aimed at helping our residents reintegrate successfully into society. These courses help our residents become aware of being an integral part of a functioning society that consists of family, friends and the workplace. Further, that they need to develop certain skills in order to re-acquaint themselves with the norms and expectations of society. Each module consists of a series of lectures followed by group assignments and presentations with an evaluation of the individual learner as a contributor to the group.
The following courses are presented by qualified Addiction Counsellors and Life Skills Coaches:
