How to use this Resource
This is a self-directed online course for use by people living in farming communities with common issues such as low mood, stress, low confidence, low assertion, poor sleep and more.
Each module typically takes 15-20 minutes or so to complete.
The core sessions of the course provide many of the key CBT-based skills needed for life change.
How often should I complete a module or how many?
We recommend you work through all the modules, completing one every few days will allow you the opportunity to put into practice what you are learning.
Using the worksheets: practical worksheets can be completed by printing them on paper, or by answering the questions electronically if you prefer such as in notes on your phone. The worksheets help you apply what you are learning, make plans and review your progress.
Working with a support worker: Some people using this course may be receiving support from an IAPT or other community mental health worker, nurse, OT, physio or other health or social care worker including Third sector staff or volunteers. If so, use this support to help you stay on track, get answers to any questions, and encouragement to apply what you are learning.
