Revitalisation paths

Stress recovery

Time to disconnect

Whether you call it personal growth, self-development, or wellbeing, there’s plenty of room to nurture it here!

Perhaps you already know how you wish to show up in your life but are stuck. Perhaps you are in a life transition and need time to pause, catch your breath, and make wise choices.

Our team will help you to identify what it is you’re longing for and take steps towards that end. They can suggest ways to best use our community resources to help you achieve your goals. Our program offerings such as journaling, movement, mindfulness, and quiet time will all help you to slow things down, so that you can look deeply into areas of your life that need some compassionate care.

About this path

What is stress?

Stress is a normal and healthy response to threats and danger. Our body has a survival system that kickstarts the release of hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. These allow us to be fully alert and deal with whatever threat or danger we’re facing.

Stress is caused by pressure. When your nervous system perceives everyday pressures – professional, social, or otherwise – as stressful, this can lead you to operate in constant survival mode. If the stress becomes chronic it takes a toll on your physical and mental health. It begins making you sick instead of helping you stay alive.

Have you noticed your overall well being decreasing significantly? Do you feel drained and emotionally exhausted? Has your outlook on life and feelings about the future become negative? Do you feel unproductive and even dread what you used to enjoy? These are all signs you’re suffering from severe stress. If it becomes too much to handle and you can’t cope anymore, it’s called ‘burnout’.

How can New Life help?

Studies suggest that mindfulness-based interventions can help reduce stress and burnout. At New Life, all our programs include group yoga, meditation, and mindfulness classes facilitated by trained instructors to help support your recovery.

Our counsellors and life coaches can help you explore the underlying reasons for the pressures you’ve been struggling with, identify the resources you need to address your challenges, and create a personalised plan to create a better balance in your life.

As you rest and recuperate, you’ll have the opportunity to gain insight into the dynamics that caused your stress and burnout and learn how to avoid them with self-development workshops and community practice themes such as ‘Body Awareness’, ‘Flexibility and Perspective’, and ‘Boundaries and Relationships’.

All our programs allow for plenty of quiet time, reconnecting with nature, and activities to support self-care and relaxation such as sauna, therapeutic massage, swimming, cycling, hiking, and a wide range of options from our Wellness Menu.
