Recovery

In times of uncertainty and upheaval we may feel lost and disconnected – a perfect time to stand back, observe and consider what action to take.

This positive action course encourages you to take a deep dive into 5 key areas of your life, to investigate and analyse certain unresolved issues. 

It then provides you with various tool/techniques to help you resolve issues, feel happier and rebuild your emotional resilience. The course also helps you to re-discover your life purpose.

The course is made up of an Introductory session followed by the 5 key life area sessions

The 5 key areas of life:

1. Physical Wellbeing

2. Mental Wellbeing

3. Relationships

4. Financial wellbeing

5. Purpose in the world / Where you fit in

At the end of the course, you will hope to feel happier with your life, more confident, grounded, know your purpose and clarity of vision to go forward and flourish in new times ahead.
