Resilience Path

The Resilience Path offers targeted, short-term, trauma-informed counselling as well as a carefully designed curriculum of group workshops. Additionally, mindfulness-based group excursions, combined with daily guided meditation, yoga sessions and community-led groups help to identify which areas you may work on.

You will be supported in shifting unproductive patterns and consolidating the progress you’ve already made while nurturing even deeper growth. Key to the program is building a repertoire of tools for resilience, so that you can approach challenging situations in healthy ways and without reverting to past habits. This program allows you to expand your regenerating process or integrating new skills respectively after having received primary care or after having received counselling.

At New Life Portugal, you have the chance to shift unproductive patterns and habits aside and strengthen the progress you’ve already made while nurturing even deeper growth.
