Substance Use Overview

Substance use is part of the human condition; people have used tobacco, alcohol, cannabis and other drugs for various human reasons, in various countries for thousands of years. Like all things involving humans, substance use is complex and not just good or bad) and has the potential to both help and harm. Whats more, the effects of using substances are not uniform but unique to each individual.

Low-drinking guidelines

Canada`s low-risk alcohol drinking guidelines (LRDG) help Canadians moderate their alcohol consumption and reduce their immediate and long-term alcohol-related harm.

Mindfulness

Being mindful means we focus on certain aspects of our current experience to the exclusion of others. It is the act of heeding or taking notice or concentrating.
