ACTIVITIES AT HAPPY HOMES
Yoga and Meditation
Breathe in positivity. Breathe out negativity. Stress and anxiety often serve as the starting points for addiction. Yoga embodies a comprehensive approach that naturally instills discipline in one’s life. Through the integration of physical postures (asanas) and meditation, yoga cultivates strength, confidence, enhanced focus, improved concentration, mental clarity, and overall well-being—benefiting the body, mind, and spirit.
Bird Watching
Beat the blues with nature’s harmony! Interacting with animals reduces stress hormones in the blood. Bird-watching enhances patience and reflexes, promoting cognitive ability. Gardening is a natural stress reliever, and Happy Home’s garden supplies fresh, organic produce for everyday cooking.
Dance and Musical Recreation
Let loose and find your rhythm! Dance and music have a positive impact on our minds. Whether it’s listening to music or busting a move, they release oxytocin (the happy hormones) in the bloodstream, instantly reducing stress and uplifting the mood. Moreover, dance and music celebrate our cultural heritage, passed down through generations, and can serve as a powerful tool for transforming lives.
Indoor & Outdoor Activities
Take a well-deserved break to unwind your body and mind! It’s important to tap into the childlike joy within us and create a lively atmosphere. That’s why we offer a range of indoor games, including Carrom, Table-tennis, and Snooker. We also enjoy the occasional friendly card game or dive into a collection of books from our library to nourish the intellect.
Short trips & Celebrations
Celebrating the beauty of life every day! Our clients are given opportunities to explore the world around them through short 1-2 day trips and weekly outings. These experiences allow them to interact with nature and people, fostering meaningful conversations and promoting coexistence. It also keeps them updated on the events and occurrences in their surroundings. At Happy Home, we believe in celebrating every aspect of life. Our clients develop a strong sense of family bond, where birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions are celebrated with joy and enthusiasm. And on challenging days, we don’t hesitate to overcome obstacles with a delightful cake!
Visit to NGOs & Orghanages
Embrace the joy of giving! The most profound happiness comes from selflessly assisting those in need, expecting nothing in return. Aligned with the 12-step program, we encourage our clients to visit orphanages and NGOs, engaging in heartfelt conversations, sharing emotions, and offering care. This experience often opens their eyes, allowing them to recognize the blessings they have received in their own lives.
