Here at the Haverhill Clubhouse, we feel that wellness is important in the recovery process. With the proper tools, a person can not only live a mentally healthy life, but a physically healthy one as well. Our wellness group meets once a week every Wednesday at 11:00 am. We discuss all different types of tips to live a healthier life. We talk about nutrition and how to read labels to ensure that healthy eating is taking place. We now are part of the Haverhill Community Garden and will be learning how to take care and grow our own vegetables. We walk back and forth to the garden as part of our Wellness commitment, we also walk to our Adopt A Park to water the flowers. Our diner offers fresh meals every day, including one to two vegetarian offerings per week. Our café offers more healthier snacks, which includes homemade trail mix, and healthy smoothies for sale daily as well. Although healthy eating is a big first step in overall wellness, it is not the only one. We are working on tips and techniques to try and assist smokers if they choose to quit. We now have a nutritionist Jeanne that comes to the Clubhouse every 2nd Tuesday of the month to help teach us about healthier eating habits and how exercise is so important to our health. The clubhouse has 3 YMCA passes to the Haverhill YMCA that is a short walk up the street from our building. Members can sign out a pass whenever they want to go shoot hoops, work out, swim, and do anything else the Y has to offer. We also have at least one staff per day scheduled to go to the Y from 12-1pm. Come join us as we all try to achieve a healthier life together at the clubhouse. |
