Life's a piece of cake

Life's a piece of cake, in this case, a cheese cake. This morning we did a life skills group, teaching clients to make a dessert that is simple but delicious and something they can take with them when they have completed treatment to cook for their families. This is part of our holistic approach to treatment. Looking at treating the whole person and giving them tools to be able to move forward in recovery and their lives. Many of the clients have never cooked, let alone made desserts. It's fair to say they all found the group both therapeutic and fun. Groups like this create a nice balance at the end of a tough week, but remain therapeutic at the same time.  There were laughs erupting around the treatment centre this morning - lovely to hear. Who says recovery is boring?
