Happy Monday!
Here’s a sneak peek into Kiwi Recovery’s programming 👀
Today we’re sharing a few of the powerful tools we teach our clients to support emotional growth, healthy communication, and lasting change:
🧠 Opposite Action
When emotions urge us to react in ways that don’t help, we practice doing the opposite. This skill helps reduce intense emotions and build healthier habits over time.
🗣 DEAR MAN Skills
A communication tool that helps clients ask for what they need, set boundaries, and say no—clearly, confidently, and respectfully.
🌊 Urge Surfing
Teaches clients how to ride out uncomfortable urges without acting on them. Like a wave, urges rise and fall—and this skill helps build resilience in the moment.
💬 “Yes, And” Statements
Encourages validation and collaboration instead of conflict. This tool helps keep conversations open, supportive, and solutions-focused.
At Kiwi Recovery, we believe in equipping our clients with real-life skills they can use every day
Because healing isn’t just talked about—it’s practiced.
