Flourish is a recovery focused self development program designed for people who have lived with a mental illness for some time and who are looking to make improvements in their life. The principle of Flourish is that you decide on your own recovery goals. The aim of the program is to motivate and equip people with the tools necessary to achieve positive changes within their lives.
The Flourish program is peer facilitated and builds on the principles of the Collaborative Recovery Model by focusing on individual strengths and values in relation to personal goals. Flourish is delivered over a 12 week period with fortnightly group meetings and personal follow up between meetings.
Some of the topics covered in Flourish include:
- What does recovery mean to us?
- Identifying our strengths & values
- Setting our life vision
- Mapping our goals and pathways to achieving them
- Recognising barriers to achieving our goals and overcoming these
- Practicing gratitude and mindfulness to optimise the positive changes we wish to make.
The program is currently delivered across all service sites in Victoria and Queensland and some service sites in New South Wales. Our intention for the future is to have Flourish provided from every Neami site.
