Project Title: The "Next Step" Process

Project Description:
Eyaa Keen Centre Inc., offers In-residence programs running 4 to 10 days, and Day Sessions running 2 - 3 days, to further develop and enhance the skills, abilities and disciplines of participants at the caregiver level by:

- Healing past issues
- Therapeutic retraining of unhealthy and / or destructive ways of thinking, behaving, feeling, doing and living,
- Development of holistic disciplines to create a more life affirming way, and
- Utilizing a process that naturally supports, fosters and enhances the development of one's uniqueness, abilities and gifts.

Residential sessions are conducted in group settings, one on one with each other and individual processing with the co-therapist / trainers.  Day sessions utilize the same processes but are more flexibly structured to fit the needs of the individual's attending.

Our teachings, training and experience has been that if the parents get it, they have the most power to influence and create change within their own families because of the inner connection that transmits/flows naturally, thus breaking the legacy of residential schools. The activities are geared to allowing the participants to experience healthy natural support and giving people what they want and/or need which they never received in the past, especially aboriginal women but includes men.
