Some Feedback from Course Participants
Im not the only one with problems
Introduce relaxation techniques rather than
alcohol as stress releaser
.
Ive had a more positive attitude since the
course.
Can sleep better by using relaxation techniques
and have now stopped taking anti-depressants
after discussion with GP

More Participant Comments
Eat 5 fruit veg a day now since the course I
feel great now
I am happy because it has made me realise it is
not as hard as I thought to get myself how I
want The folder is really helpful and I will
definitely use it in the future
I have learnt how to understand and control my
health
