This course adopts a strengths-based approach to recovery, rediscovery, self-management and personal growth. It aims to celebrate YOU and All That You Are, instead of all that you think (or have been told and/or shown you are not) and have in turn continued to tell yourself you are not. WHO YOU ARE MATTERS! And, you are worthy of love and belonging NOW...AS IS! Not if or when! NOW...in all your perfect imperfection. In other words...YOU didn't come in to this world to earn your worth...YOU brought it with you! ATYA is about your thoughts, feelings, experiences and stories. It considers and appreciates your wisdom, transferable skills, strengths, abilities and potential. It recognises, explores and celebrates All That You Are and strives to get you back in the driving seat of your own life, health and wellbeing and happiness. To grow through what you go through. To nourish in order to flourish and lead a fulfilled life rich in meaning and purpose. ATYA recognises and appreciates that often (when people are living with a long-term health condition or facing times of grief, trauma, loss, crisis and change) life can feel like a constant uphill struggle. In some cases, you can lose your sense of self and confidence in your own abilities. ATYA is here to remind you that YOU MATTER ALWAYS. So, that YOU in turn can remind yourself and others who they are dealing with. The course is primarily delivered (face-to-face) over 2 days (approximately 12hrs) or 2 hourly sessions over 6 weeks. It has recently been delivered online also. The format that seems to work best for this approach is: 2 hourly sessions, over 6 weeks (that consist of a video, zoom discussion and a reflective task). ** The format and content of the course can be adapted to meet the time requirements, needs and wants of the individuals, groups and organisations who have signed up. ** Every course attendee receives an ATYA box or folder to decorate and fill throughtout the course...and beyond. Additionally, they receive a number of little gifts (wellbeing related) to use and incorporate into life beyond the course.
