More information on registering

Click the Register Menu item which is usually on the home page and also the top menu. We recommend you bookmark the main site address as we run many different websites. 
You will then go to a page entitled “Create Your Account”. You need to complete all the sections requested and press continue registration. You may then get a Privacy Information pop up – you need to review the content then tick the box (if you agree) and finally click “Complete Registration”.

If you are taken back to the “Create Your Account” page it is because there is a query with something you have filled in e.g. the passwords don’t match or you haven’t added a code when this is required– make sure you have completed all the sections.

You will need to tick the privacy box and click complete registration again.

The easiest way to find out if you have an account is to go to our site at    https://online.llttf.com/  and try to register.
If you have registered before, you will see that your email address has already been used to create an account.

If you can remember your password you can go ahead and sign in, if not you can request a password reset to be emailed to you. If you do this, always check your spam/junk email box if you don’t see the reset in your inbox. Please use the link within 24 hours, otherwise you will have to ask for another password reset link to be emailed to your email account.

If your email is not registered please set up a new account. Remember to keep a note of the email address and password you use to register for future reference.

If you have signed up for the free course, the account will exist until you ask for it to be deleted if you are still using it.

If you have paid to access a course, or been given a login code to unlock content, this typically lasts for 12 months. If you paid to upgrade yourself you should receive reminder emails that your subscription is running out as the end of the year approaches. You can then choose to renew in the shop.

You can also extend the subscription by logging into the Courses page and purchasing a new subscription.

All accounts that have been inactive for 36 months are automatically deleted as part of our Privacy Policy (www.llttf.com/privacy).

Most courses can be upgraded to add extra features like:

• Access linked books to read online
• Access additional course modules (Optional modules and You Time)
• Add extra features (text reminders)
• Add interactivity (some courses only) allowing you to type into the worksheets or books.

This upgrade is usually paid – and you choose to do this during the registration process or later. If you have been given a code to use when you register this provides you access to certain courses and resources as selected by the supporting organisation.

Be careful when copying and pasting your code from an email into the website as it may pick up unseen spaces. You only use the code once when you are registering. If you have already registered, sign in with your email and password. If you have tried these options and your code is still ‘invalid’ please contact your support worker. Some teams offering login codes also provide you with a separate User ID. Please make sure you enter the correct information in the correct box.

Click “Sign In Now” which is on the home page, or “Login” which is at the top menu of each site.

The way our sites are programmed make it not possible to use the same email address on more than one site – you can use another email address (e.g. a Gmail address). That would get around the issue and allow you access (unless you are set up as a supporter in which case you need to be using an official work email address e.g. nhs.net)

You have probably already registered on another of our web sites/courses. The way our system works you can only register on a site using a new email address. If you want to use another of our websites (most often if you are a service lead reviewing different sites), then you need to use a different email address for each one (e.g. use a new Gmail email if you have previously used another existing one).

Click the login menu item on the top menu of each site. Select “Forgotten Your Password” and reset your password. If a user account exists with that address, you’ll receive an e-mail shortly with further instructions.

If you don’t receive it within a few minutes, check your “Junk Mail” folder, in case it has dropped into there.

Note: This password change request remains effective for 24 hours. If it is not used in that time, you must submit your request again.

There may be number of reasons why this problem is occurring:

1. We run a number of websites. Make sure that this is the website that you registered on.

2. Did you register with a different email address?

3. Is your password reset email sitting in your junk mail box?

4. The email sent out has a link that you click to enable you to reset your password. This is only valid for 24 hours. If it has  been over 24 hours since you requested your password reset you will need to request another password reset. If you still have problems after checking the three suggestions above please contact us via our Contact Us page

We’re sorry to hear you are having difficulty getting access to the resources.

We have a FAQ page at https://llttf.com/faqs/ which can be a good place to start.

Here are a few of the most common difficulties:

1. Please check you are on the correct site. We have a lot of different sites so it’s important to make sure you are logging onto the correct place. If you have a specific Company or Organisation site we have created and you intend to visit, you need to go to there. So,  if you were given an access code by a supporter it’s likely to be for a specific site. online
2. Are using the same email to login that you registered with? If so, please request a password reset if you can’t get in. A link that is sent to your email account and needs to be used within 24 hours (It sometimes ends up in spam so please check your spam / junk folders). If it says your email isn’t already registered then either you haven’t registered on this site, or you are registered on another website.
3.  If you try all this and get an error message it can be useful to send us a screenshot of any error message so we can send this to IT to investigate.If you try these solutions first and still cannot register then can you please let us know and we can ask IT to look into that further for you.Please contact us and we will try to help www.llttf.com/contact

You can change the email address used in your Dashboard

Login to the site, then visit your Dashboard. Next on the top right hand side you will see a box with My Account on it – you can see the email address currently used to login

Click the little arrow on the right hand side and you will see a drop down box – you will then see account settings – click on this.

In the section on Account information – one of which is email address – if you click on the edit symbol on the right hand side (looks like a pen and sheet of paper) then you will be given the option to change your email address.

Add your own email address twice where asked and then use your password to change your email address.

You should now be able to see that you have a different email address when you click on my account.

Any Problems: We have a contact us page at https://llttf.com/contact/ or from within your account (there is a contact us link along the top of the menu bar)

The first thing about making life changes is to recognise that we want to change something. This might be to:

• Move away from feeling bad (e.g. I keep losing my temper, I’m so unassertive)
• Or move towards something positive (e.g. I want to feel happier, I want to be more confident).

What motivates you matters – and the course will encourage you to work out what problems am I facing, and also what solutions do I want to work towards.

How to get started:
There can be many reasons why it can feel difficult to get started. Low mod or stress might put us off change. It can sometimes be scary to make changes. Or we may feel we have low motivation – perhaps because of low mood.

Are do you talk yourself out of things?
Start with small steps. What can you do? Just do it anyway and see what happens.

Set things up to give yourself the best chance of success. First iyt can help to set up a regular pattern to the day. Would setting an alarm help? Or a second alarm, and sit it away from your bed so you need to get up to switch it off.

When you get up out of bed, don’t be tempted to sit down on the sofa. Instead have breakfast and start your day.

Consider doing something energising like jumping on the spot, or going for a brisk walk to get you going.

Why not try it and see what happens?

Remember to start small and build things up.

You may find the ‘Write all over your bathroom mirror’/How to start living life to the full little book helpful. It’s available as part of the LLTTF^® Core course.

When you log in you see a dashboard/home page – this is where you navigate the course. We recommend you start with the Welcome module – the first module you will see visible in the course list. Sometimes you may need to click to expand  the course list menu.

The Welcome module gives you an overview of how to use the course. The main course modules are then clustered below this in the module list- either the main Course ones alone, or if you have upgraded/entered a valid code, you will also see the Optional modules list and You Time modules.

The main course modules- covering topics like Why do I feel so bad/Understanding your feelings etc.- are designed to be worked through roughly once a week. The modules also have linked worksheets to complete (you can write into these online if you have an upgraded account), – and optional recommended books (which will be unlocked if you have upgraded so you can read them).

Some modules also have recommended videos you can watch – and these are all visible when you work through a module. They are also separately accessed via the Books/Worksheets and Courses tab at the top menu. The Courses menu provides a clear idea of what’s available.

a). Core course- we recommend working through a module about once every few days – and apply/practice what is being learned.

b). Optional modules – can be done at any time- just pick topics of interest.

c). You Time: short 10 minutes of fun and information for when time is short e.g. a lunch break.
This includes Tension Control Training- something we recommend you try and see of you’d enjoy using every day.

d). Support: You will also receive automated weekly support emails (unless you have turned them off in your dashboard) – which aim to remind and encourage you to use the site.

First visit www.llttf.com

Register and visit the course content when logged in.

We recommend you use the Starting Out module.

Next, choose a topic or course. Some are unlocked and free, and some are paid for.

Once you have chosen a course, you can work through then from the first/top module in a systematic way.

Some people prefer to dip in and out of the courses.

You can also revisit and revise modules and worksheets after you have gone through the resources.

Because of this, there is no “right” or “wrong” way to complete the course.

They key is learning life skills that are useful to you.

Trying them out and applying them.

And learning as you Plan, Do and Review.

Another way of doing the courses is to purchase one to one training where key elements of our classes are taught to you 1:1. This option is available as a shop product.

See https://llttf.com/format/arrange-11-wellbeing-training-support-sessions/

Many of the courses on LLTTF have accompanying weekly automated emails to help support and remind you to apply what you are learning in the course.

These are identified by the Subject line of the emails you receive.

If you have an upgraded account you can read the books online, but you cannot download them.

The books are also available on Kindle and Apple books.

Often the books are also available in libraries. In England and Wales the Living life to the full books is available in every library as part of the National book Prescription Scheme

We recommend that you try a different browser e.g. google chrome, firefox, safari etc as this can be a possible cause of problems with viewing the videos.

It may be you have a firewall blocking video streaming (e.g. in a work setting).

Also, if you could try to open your account on a different device this could let you test if it is working for you.
If you try these and you are still finding a problem viewing the modules then please do let me know via www.ll ttf.com/contact

Three things to bear in mind are:
1). What is the most important topic you want to learn more about?
2). How do you like to learn – module/book/video?
3). Making Plans with the Planner sheet, and then reviewing progress with the Review sheet can be helpful.

We recommend you decide whether you prefer to learn using an online self-directed learning course, by reading a book, or watching a video.

A good first choice is the book/module called ‘Why do I feel so bad/Understanding your feelings’ module or book first to identify what other areas to work on.

After that, choose the topics and resources that are important to you.

If you feel low/down – the ‘I can’t be bothered doing anything/Doing things that make you feel better’ topic is a good place to build on after completing ‘Understanding your feelings/Why do I feel so bad?’.

If you find your mood varies a lot – consider the ‘123 Breathe topic/Are you strong enough to keep your temper’, or the content on thinking ‘Why does everything always go wrong/Looking at things differently’.

First – make sure you have chosen a target to work on that is a changeable problem.

This should be an issue outside you such as a money worry, a difficult situation or too much to do. Don’t choose things that you can’t change.

Once you have a potentially changeable problem, next you need to get creative and come up with some possible solutions/ideas.

One of the challenges when using the Easy 4-Step Plan is how to come up with a variety of ideas. Sometimes it might feel as though all our ideas have dried up – or when we do identify ideas, we swiftly may discount them and rule them out.

If that’s you – try the following:

1). Imagine you have an extra thumb:

One exercise we use in workshops is to ask people to look at both their hands, and imagine they suddenly had an extra thumb growing out of each hand below their little finger/pinkie.

If that happened – what strange and wonderful implications might there be? So, might you be able to play the piano super well? Or pick both nostrils at once? Or perhaps have a financial opportunity to invest in shares in Glove making Factories? People’s faces often light up as they consider the often silly ideas – as well as the more serious.

It can be the same with any ideas – getting going with something strange/odd/silly or unusual often gets the creative process going. So, think what a youngster might say. Or someone you’d see as creative, or who you enjoy on TV and seems great with solutions. What unusual ideas might they come up with? And also what more sensible one’s? What would someone you respect say in this situation?

What about an expert in the field? Or a TV pundit? Or someone you know well? Or your neighbour? Or child or grandchild?

If you can get started, you’ll often find more ideas come.

If you’re still stuck – maybe leave it for a time and see if ideas come later. Often people find they work on ideas in the background in their pre-conscious so when they revisit things later ideas flow.

Finally, you could always do this task with a friend.

Remember to list each and every idea – however strange or inappropriate.

The next step is to then look at how practical, realistic and feasible each idea is that you can make the decisions of which are the stronger ideas.

You can find out more about problem solving in the Practical problem solving/Easy 4 Step Plan module/book.

Many people use the LLTTF^® courses by themselves. The key is working through the content, and then applying what you are learning in your own life. As you’ll be aware, most of us find there are times when we can make changes happen and stick, and other times in our life when that is more difficult.

The first step is to try the Welcome/Getting Started module. This covers key information like trying to get into a pattern of Plan, Do and Review by using the Planner and Review sheets. The Planner system in the Dashboard area allows you to make plans, and set a reminder by email (free system). Go to the Dashboard and select the weekly reminder emails to help you stay on track.
If you find you struggle or get stuck, that’s where sometimes having someone else to help keep you on track can be useful. Perhaps ask a trusted friend or family member. Some people already receive support from a Supporter/Coach from a charity, or health, education or social care organisation. Some employee assistance schemes at work provide support for LLTTF.
Free NHS Support if you live in Scotland: If you live in Scotland and are over 16 years old, it’s possible to get support for free from NHS Living Life from NHS Scotland.

Moving Between Slides

1. If your course is set up for manual slide advance.

When you have chosen an online self-directed course module you will see a screen that has an arrow at both the bottom left-hand side and the bottom right-hand side.

Use these to navigate through the course module.

The number of the slide is shown in the top right-hand side of the screen.

If you click these arrows they take you back and forward between the slides.

2. Many courses are set to automatically advance when the accompanying audio ends on a particular slide. You can control this auto-advance feature (on/off) within your Dashboard.

Our core course for adults is free for individuals using them for personal use in their own life.

Free Resources:

There are various free resources available on our website including worksheets. See https://llttf.com/resources/

When you have registered you have access to a number of free online self-directed courses include:

• The LLTTF Adult core course.
• LLTTF for Young People core course (Coming soon).
• LLTTF for Farming Communities (funded by the Scottish Govt CSO research).
• LLTTF for Seasonal Affective Disorders (SAD) (funded by the ESRC funding body).

These courses are standalone and contain a wide range of useful content and resources.

Additional upgrades and Premium content:

You can:

• Upgrade the free courses for additional content such as online books and added content.
• Unlock additional courses covering specialist topics. These include coping with long term physical health symptoms (Reclaim your life), Pregnancy, new baby and infant support (Enjoy your Pregnancy, Enjoy your Baby, and Enjoy your Infant) and more.

Online self-directed courses, and also individual topics contain all the key resources you need to practice what you are learning through the worksheets.

Worksheets are one of the key elements of the LLTTF^® and Five Areas ^® resources. However you learn the worksheets help you take the learning off the page or screen, and apply what you are learning into your life.

A selection of worksheets are also available from our resources section https://llttf.com/format/worksheets/

The Planner worksheet helps you plan to do a specific activity and a set time. It helps you decide what you will do, when you will do it, and predict in advance any problems, blocks of difficulties that could arise so you can plan an unblocking plan. It teaches so-called SMART objectives – ones that are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timebound- i.e. occur by a set time. That way you’ll know if you don’t do it.

The Review worksheet follows on and is completed after the time when the Planned activity should have occurred. The Review is all about learning. Whether the Plan went well, or hasn’t occurred, or happened but not as expected. The idea is to reflect on what went well, what didn’t go well and then to learn from this.

Together the two sheets allow you to Plan-Do and then Review.

Combined with the Smiley Faces mood rater worksheet the approach provides a powerful set of tools for planning change.

When logged into online.llttf.com visit your Dashboard. Use the Planner/Review and Reminder system. First set a plan. You will then be offered the opportunity to create a reminder by email.

Set the reminder email to be sent at a specific day and time to prompt you to carry out a planned activity.

This can be amended at any time in the Planner/Review/Reminder part of your Dashboard.

A key principle we use in the various course resources is the idea of experimenting and trying out different responses to discover what happens. That way you can test whether some of the life skills changes that are taught have a helpful impact – or not.

The Smiley Faces Mood rater worksheet helps you record how you are to start with (before). You can then experiment – try a new action like face a fear, tackle a problem, or try and relax. Afterwards rate yourself again (after). The worksheet records four different areas of life including pleasure, sense of achievement and connection to others and allows you to judge whether you feel better or not by trying the activity.

We’re assuming in this response that you are a Practitioner/Supporter who has – or are considering purchasing a Class Resources Teaching Licence to deliver one of our classes such as Living Life to the Full.

The LLTTF and other classes (www.llttf.com/classes) are generally designed to be run with the books as a resource to be given to participants to support in between classes and also after the end of the course. But if you struggle with finance this is entirely a budget issue for your service/ team. You can run the course without the books as licensed trainers have access to the slides, trainer notes and the handouts for participants.

Information:  Visit www.llttf.com/classes  to find out about the available classes and the license to run these. License holders are eligible to a discount when buying books.

We hope this helps. Please do use the Contact Us link to get in touch www.llttf.com/contact if you have any other questions.

CBT (Cognitive behavioural therapy) is a widely recommended form of talking therapy that can help people improve and overcome difficulties such as low mood/depression, anxiety/stress and a wide range of other mental health difficulties. It helps people recognise changes in their thoughts (cognitions) and in how they respond (behaviours) at times of low mood, stress and more.

Professor Chris Williams is an expert in CBT and has authored numerous books, training courses and other resources over the last 25 years plus aimed at increasing access to CBT approaches. They are based on the idea that CBT uses a teaching approach  to life change. The resources produced by LLTTF aim to help people learn these key life skills.

This is achieved by approaching CBT as a challenge of adult/young people learning. CBT helps people understand why they feel as they do, and teaches key CBT based life skills to help people make helpful changes to how they think and what they do.  and distilling key CBT life skills into everyday language. It aims to help people learn them in the way they wish – read a book or handout, complete an online learning course, or attend a live class.

The LLTTF/Five Areas approaches provides:

• A transdiagnostic approach – life skills many people can use.
• Disorder-specific versions – engaging and supporting people facing specific difficulties.
• Available across the life span (from pregnancy, children, teenagers, adults, parents and carers and older adults to end of life care).

Low intensity approaches describe a way of people learning CBT approaches with less or no expert CBT practitioner support. Sometimes abbreviated to LI approaches (as opposed to traditional longer expert support- High Intensity – HI support). LI approaches such as the Five Areas^® and LLTTF^® resources provide much of the content learning of CBT by helping users:
1. Work out why they feel as they do (self-formulation)

2. Learn key life skills that can help make a difference.

These skills are taught in a variety of formats so people can learn as they wish:

• Online self-directed learning
• Read a book (bibliotherapy)
• Attend a class- face to face or remotely online (e.g. Zoom/Teams)

The LLTTF^®/Five Areas^® approach is unique in its range of ways of learning the same approach.

The Five Areas^® describe five important aspects of life that can change when people struggle. It is a registered trademark of Five Areas Resources Ltd.

Area 1: The people and events around the person (e.g. the situation/relationships and practical problems – and support faced)

Area 2: Altered thinking: with unhelpful thoughts that can worsen how you feel, or more balanced and helpful ways of seeing yourself, the situation and the future)

Area 3: Altered feelings (e.g. feeling low, stressed, guilty, ashamed, angry- or happy, peaceful and relaxed).

Area 4: Altered physical/bodily sensations e.g. tense, shaky, rapid hear and breathing in stress. Or low energy, pain, tiredness and poor sleep at times of low mood/depression.

Area 5: is the altered activity levels or behaviours as a result of the impact of the other areas. For example, reduced activity and helpful or unhelpful behaviours, including avoidance.

There is a strong evidence based for the use of the Five Areas^® range of resources.

This includes for:

• Training
• Impact of life skills.
• Ability to live life.
• Feeling better – less stressed and less depressed/happier.

LLTTF^® is an abbreviation for the Living life to the full approach/resources.

Five Areas^® is an abbreviation for the Five Areas Assessment/approach/resources – such as the Overcoming series books and is also available Canada wide as a national programme called Bounceback.

Five Areas^® refers to materials published in book form – and also available online as the Overcoming series. Content tends to be longer, but still uses an accessible language. There are less illustrations, and the resources often come with a licence permitting book resources to be copied for use by the licensed practitioner/personal owner in their own life or personal work.

LLTTF^® tends to be shorter, to the point, colourful with many more illustrations or photographs. It isn’t permitted to copy content, however separate worksheets are available for each book.

Both approaches aim to use everyday terms, and help people apply what they are learning through course worksheets.

The Overcoming functional neurological symptoms book: a five areas approach book was originally created as part of a MRC (Medical research Council) funded research project with input from experts in the field including Professor Chairs Williams, Professors Michael Sharp, Alan Carson and Jonathan Cavanagh who checked the text.

You can find out about the evidence base about this book at llttf.com/evidence. If you are a practitioner /supporter you can contact us to discuss training options at llttf.com/contact

If you are a member of the public we can generally provide optional paid for training support in the use of our various book resources. Please contact us at llttf.com/contact for further details.

Bounceback is a national programme used across Canada. Led by the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) the Five Sareas approach is delivered by CMHA in various local Provinces via the local CMHA branches. The two largest Provinces are Ontario and British Columbia, but the approach is offered as a National Programme. English and French languages and translations into Chinese and more are available

The Living Life to the Full (LLTTF^®) approach is also available in Punjabi and Chinese, with video versions adapted with Closed Caption in six different languages (Arabic, Cantonese, Farsi, French, Mandarin and Punjabi).
