Ever notice how recovery isn’t just in your head? Your body feels it too. Some days it’s tight. Some days it’s restless. Some days it just needs to move. Not for a goal, not to push through, just to show up for yourself. At Discovery House, we bring physical wellness into recovery with our weekly yoga and fitness classes. Tiny moves, big impact, or your mind, your body, and your recovery.

We’ve all heard “new year, new me,” right? But truthfully, it’s not about completely changing who you are. You’re still the same person, with the same strengths, the same struggles, and the same history. A new year doesn’t erase any of that; it just gives you a clean slate to work with. Maybe it’s a chance to try again, to take one step forward, or just to show up for yourself a little more.

So here’s our question to you: what are you actually looking forward to this year?
Maybe it’s a little more peace. Maybe it’s stability. Maybe it’s repairing a relationship. Maybe it’s just staying sober one more day at a time. Whatever it is, big or small, it matters.

If you feel like sharing, we’d love to hear from you. Comment below and let us know.

We won’t sugarcoat it; recovery takes work. Some days will be tough, and some moments will test you.
But every step forward, every choice to keep going, and every bit of support you lean on adds up. It’s not easy, but it is worth it. This season, honour your journey, the progress you’ve made, and the courage it takes to keep moving forward.

Finishing treatment is a huge milestone, but building a purposeful life in recovery often includes finding meaningful work. At Discovery House, our Links to Employment Program supports clients with resources to explore new vocational opportunities and strengthen current employment skills.

From education and job search support to vocational training and access to material resources, our trained staff guide clients every step of the way. It’s about building confidence, skills, and independence in recovery.

We want to express our deepest gratitude to Janet Parker for her incredibly generous donation of $50,000 to our Shed the Light on Addiction campaign.

The holidays are supposed to be relaxing… but we all know that’s not usually the case. 🎄

Stress, old habits, and unexpected triggers can pop up, sometimes out of nowhere. One small thing you can do? Pick one moment each day to ground yourself. It could be a walk outside, a quick chat with someone you trust, or even jotting down what’s on your mind.

Little steps like these add up, and they remind you that even in the chaos, you still have control. And while you’re taking those moments for yourself, remember it’s okay to reach out and lean on your community; they can help you carry the load and make the season a little lighter.

Need support navigating the holidays? Reach out anytime. We’re here.

The holidays can be tough. They can also be loud and overwhelming, full of expectations and stress, or quiet and lonely, sometimes both. And if you’re in recovery, it can hit even harder.

It helps to have someone to talk to, a safe space where you can be honest and connect with people who understand what you’re going through. Our Individual Counselling and Group Support Program offers that space, support, guidance and a reminder that you don’t have to face it all alone.
