Dannevirke -Tōku Hā Stop Smoking program

Service Description

Empowering Wāhine to Breathe Freely: A Journey to Well-Being Tōku Hā is specifically designed to support wāhine aged 18-35 in quitting smoking and instead, develop healthier habits as a form of stress relief. This 6 week journey offers personalized guidance, whether in a supportive group setting or through individualized sessions, to help you rediscover the sacredness of your breath and the strength within you. What We Offer: Personalized Support: Participants are supported with a dedicated coach who will guide you through the process, providing the encouragement and tools you need to succeed. Whether you prefer the camaraderie of a group or the focused attention of individual sessions, our program is tailored to your needs. Cultural Connection: We believe in the power of connection to Te Taiao and the heritage of this whenua. Throughout the program, you will engage with alternative forms of relaxation, drawing on the elements and traditional healing practices such as Rongoā Māori and ancient pūrākau. These practices, drawn from te ao Māori, will help you find the courage and strength you need to transcend smoking and embrace a healthier lifestyle. Holistic Wellbeing: Our approach goes beyond just quitting smoking; it's about feeling a deep sense of well-being. By nurturing your physical, emotional, and spiritual health, we aim to create lasting change. The program includes a workbook to guide your journey, helping you reflect on your progress and internal growth. Recognition of Your Journey: Upon completing the workbook, you will receive a certificate that honors the internal work you have done. This is more than just a piece of paper; it's a symbol of your commitment to yourself and your whānau. Additionally, you will gain access to weekly online classes to continue your growth and learning beyond the initial six weeks. Celebrating Success: We understand that quitting smoking is a significant achievement. To recognize this milestone, participants who successfully quit will graduate with a certificate and receive a $200 voucher, a tangible reward for your hard work and perseverance.
