SANCA Wedge Gardens treatment centre clients recently took part in an occupational therapy activity that helped them to let go of the past.

“Each client received a piece of paper with bubbles drawn on it. They wrote down aspects of their lives that they would like to ‘blow away’, inside the bubbles,” explains Caryn Berman, SANCA Wedge Gardens’ occupational therapist.

“Then they went outside and ‘blew away’ these aspects of their lives. Some even decided to then burn their paper, as a symbolic act,” she adds.
