Happynest Counselling Chambers, a mental health services provider, has launched the second edition of its Drug Detoxification Boot Camp, in collaboration with healthy lifestyle institute.
 The comprehensive program, running from November 4 to November 17, 2024, in Rhodene, offers a holistic approach to recovery, incorporating a plant-based diet, counseling, and follow-up support.
Innocent Mataruse, CEO of Happynest Counselling Chambers, a registered counseling psychologist and therapist, confirmed the development to The Midweek Watch.
“Our Drug Detoxification Boot Camp has proved to be a game-changer in the fight against addiction. We are proud to launch the second edition, building on the success of our inaugural program,” said Mataruse.
“The boot camp’s plant-based diet plays a vital role in the recovery process, reducing inflammation, supporting detoxification, boosting mood, enhancing cognitive function, and promoting healthy gut bacteria. Participants benefit from reduced cravings, improved mood stability, enhanced energy levels, better sleep quality, and increased motivation,” he added.
Mataruse said to measure success, Happynest Counselling Chambers tracks participants satisfaction, pre- and post-program assessments, urine screenings, relapse rates, alumni feedback, and re-engagement rates, the center provides comprehensive follow-up support, including aftercare programs, alumni networks, online community forums, quarterly check-ins, and random drug testing.
“Continuing care is crucial to sustained recovery, our outpatient therapy sessions, sober living arrangements, job training, education support, mindfulness programs, and technology-based support ensure participants receive ongoing guidance and resources,” Mataruse emphasized.
The second edition of the Drug Detoxification Boot Camp promises to build on the successes of the inaugural program, empowering individuals to overcome addiction and live healthier, happier lives.
