The Role of Nature in Addiction Recovery for Young Adults

Introduction: Nature as a Catalyst for Recovery Addiction and behavioral health challenges can leave young people feeling disconnected—not only from others but from themselves. In a world dominated by screens, urban environments, and constant noise, nature offers something profoundly different: space to breathe, think, and heal. At Holina Village in Cyprus, the natural surroundings are […]

Understanding Dual Diagnosis: Treating Addiction and Mental Health Together

Introduction: When Two Challenges Overlap For many young adults, addiction is not the only battle—they may also face underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. When substance use and mental health challenges occur together, it’s known as dual diagnosis (or co-occurring disorders). Treating one without addressing the other can leave […]

Rebuilding Confidence and Identity in Recovery

Introduction Addiction and emotional breakdown don’t just affect behaviour—they disrupt identity. For young people aged 16–25, who are still forming a sense of self, these struggles can erase confidence, distort purpose, and fracture identity. At Holina Cyprus, we believe recovery isn’t just about stopping harmful behaviours—it’s about rebuilding what was lost: self-trust, inner strength, and […]

Self-Harm Recovery: Compassionate Care for Young People

Introduction Self-harm is often a silent scream—a private response to overwhelming emotion, numbness, or inner turmoil. For young people aged 16–25, it can become a coping mechanism when they lack safe ways to express or regulate pain. At Holina Cyprus, we don’t treat self-harm as a behaviour to be stopped—we treat it as a signal […]

How a Structured Daily Schedule Supports Recovery

Introduction When life feels overwhelming or chaotic, creating stability can be the first step toward healing. For young people aged 16–25, emotional regulation, confidence, and growth often start with something simple: a daily rhythm. At Holina Cyprus, structure is not about restriction—it’s about safety, predictability, and flow. A thoughtfully designed daily schedule gives young people […]

Am I Struggling—or Just Stressed? Early Signs of Emotional Collapse

Introduction Everyone feels stressed sometimes—but what happens when stress becomes something deeper? For many young people aged 16–25, the pressure of modern life slowly erodes their mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing. What starts as anxiety or burnout can evolve into what we call emotional collapse—a state of deep disconnection, exhaustion, and overwhelm. At Holina Cyprus, […]

What Trauma-Informed Recovery Looks Like for Ages 16–25

Introduction For many young people aged 16–25, addiction and emotional struggles are symptoms of something deeper: trauma. Unresolved trauma—whether from family dynamics, bullying, loss, or neglect—can disrupt development, self-worth, and trust in others. That’s why healing must go beyond surface-level symptoms. At Holina Village in Cyprus, we approach recovery through a trauma-informed lens. This means […]

Recognising Emotional Burnout in Young People

Introduction Burnout isn’t just a workplace problem—it’s a growing crisis among young people aged 16–25. Between academic pressure, social media stress, family expectations, and unresolved trauma, many adolescents and young adults are emotionally collapsing long before adulthood begins. At Holina Village in Cyprus, we see firsthand how emotional burnout can mimic depression, fuel substance use, […]
