Week 1: Goal setting
Week 2: Self worth
Week 3: Sleep
Week 4: Environment
Week 5: Healthy Eating

Goal Setting

Goals - how to set them, achieve them and use them to get the most out of life and overcome obstacles along the way. The main aim of this session is to point out that life rewards actions not intentions.

Self-Worth

Realising that we are all worthwhile and of value regardless of what we do, or are. This session is handled in a sensitive manner as it looks at how we view our own worth and also how others perceive us.

Sleep

Reinforcing the need for rest to achieve a healthy life. We will learn how good sleep patterns are important, ways to help achieve this and have a go at designing plans to help us figure out how to make this happen for us.

The Environment we live in

Our surroundings can have both a positive and negative impact on our lives. In this session we talk about the difference between physical and social environments, what the difference between changing and adapting actually means. Also we look at how to make positive changes to our own environments and how it’s not the end of the world if we have a little “wobble” in our environments and how to overcome these situations and move on.

Healthy Eating

Creating a healthy relationship with food and our eating habits. This is the last and most practical, hands on session. Our main aim is to prove that it is possible to eat healthily on a budget. We look at how our diet can affect our health and how to have a positive relationship with food. We do this by having a go at cooking a healthy meal together on a budget. At the end of this session we will have all helped to cook an affordable, healthy meal which we will all sit down together and enjoy.
