PROGRAMS
& SERVICES
Eyaa-Keen's
success is based on the fact that all people
inherently have the skills and abilities
within to "connect" their mental, emotional,
physical and spiritual selves with the world
around them. The programs and services provide
an opportunity for individuals to participate
in activities that bring out this natural
part of them. As one releases emotional,
physical, mental and spiritual pain, they
more fully develop and strengthen their
abilities to lead their own lives in healthier
ways.
Eyaa-Keen
Centre focuses on integrated physical, emotional,
mental and spiritual treatment. Participants
learn to "clear" and "release" barriers
that hold them back from living life in
healthy and good ways. Healing tools are
provided for each to incorporate into his/her
daily life, allowing healing and development
to occur at the participant's pace, and
in a kind and gentle manner.
TREATMENT
SESSIONS
Skilled
and trained Behavioural Health Specialists
host three, five, and ten-day treatment
sessions that focus on spiritual, mental,
emotional and physical healing and development
for Aboriginal adults who wish to change
their lives. When they participate fully
in the treatment sessions, people who experience
barriers in their lives begin to address
underlying core issues, and learn how to
heal themselves using individually designed
treatment plans.
Eyaa-Keen's treatment sessions address a
variety of needs including situational stressors,
family relations, interpersonal relationships,
employee personnel concerns, mental health
issues, life span issues, sexuality issues,
and underlying issues of addictions. As
well, sessions address the needs of survivors
of residential schools (and their descendents),
victims of historical trauma, abuse, domestic
violence, and survivors of a loved one's
suicide, sudden accidental death, or other
traumas and losses.
Through these treatment sessions, participants
are trained to be more "conscious" and aware
of the present. This awareness allows individuals
to safely become increasingly cognizant
of what is and what is not working in their
lives, and focus on life aspects that require
further work. Through this process, participants
become progressively happier, freer, more
peaceful, more powerful, and more themselves.
Their gifts and abilities naturally present
themselves, and allow them to lead productive,
healthy lives.
When an adult caregiver participates in
Eyaa-Keen's treatment sessions and uses
the tools provided, they heal their "issues"
and core pain, and their children, siblings,
parents, grandparents, friends, and community
naturally receive benefits. This causes
a healing "ripple effect" that can heal
and change communities in a powerful way.
