Community, Compassion & Connection

We invite you to gather here in a space that is guided by community, compassion and
connection in support of an individuals journey through Recovery from Eating Issues or an Eating Disorder.

 
 

Overview of what we offer

Our offerings take place at our House of Hope located in Woombye, the Sunshine Coast. Through mindful consideration, we focus our services on creating space that invites individuals to find support and connection through their journey of Recovery.

We hope to maintain a space that is: inclusive, safe and home-like.

We are an adjunct support service, striving to complement the evidence-based treatments individuals receive from local eating disorder in/out-patient services, day programs and private practices.

During our time together we invite; reflection, support, creativity, expression and integrating all that we are coming to know during our journey of Recovery.  

 

 

 
 

Eating in the light of the moon
Dr. Anita Johnston 

“A labyrinth is an ancient and mysterious archetype. It consists of one pathway that loops back repeatedly upon itself, reaching the centre and then winds its way back out again. Unlike a maze, there are no barriers, false turns, or dead ends. The women on the road to recovery from disordered eating began with a journey that required them to follow a twisting, turning, winding path to their centres.

It requires them to leave behind old perceptions of themselves that they had adopted from others and to reclaim their own inner authorities. They had to find themselves letting go of all expectation of linear progress, disengaging the rational mind, and embracing the power of their emotions and intuition. As they walk this labyrinth, there are times they felt trapped, lost, bored, disoriented, frustrated, or anxious, but they keep on going, placing one foot in front of the other. Finding their centres, is not the end of the journey.

They then must spiral outwardly, integrating this new vision with their extended world."
