Reclaim Your Life

A FIVE-WEEK WELLBEING COURSE FOR PEOPLE WITH LONG-TERM PHYSICAL HEALTH SYMPTOMS.

Your life is more important than your illness. Would you like it back? This five-week course will help you reclaim your life from long-term physical symptoms.

At base, it is all about understanding one truth: you are bigger than your problems. Those problems shouldn’t stop you doing things, experiencing things, loving, laughing, tasting and living life.

Reclaim Your Life will teach you to make changes to the way you think and act, creating a new relationship between you and your illness – one that helps separate who you are from what you’ve got. At each of the five sessions, you will learn new ways to respond when you are feeling ground down, frustrated or hopeless, and you will learn new skills that will help you tackle problems in your life.

In addition, we are offering a bonus session after each five-week course: Living With Chronic Pain. This will explain what chronic pain is, what influences it, and how you can help manage the impact it has on your life. The Living With Chronic Pain session is open to anyone, whether or not you have come to Reclaim Your Life.

Throughout 2025 we are running Reclaim Your Life and Living with Chronic Pain classes in East Kilbride, Airdrie, and Wishaw. You do not have to live in one of those areas to attend a course: they are open to anyone living in North or South Lanarkshire.

See below for dates and more information. Each week of Reclaim Your Life builds on the previous week’s learning, so we encourage you to come to all sessions of your chosen class if you can.
