Pave Your Way with Chronic Illness - by Pippa Stacey (Paperback)

About the Book

Not a wellness diary. Not a symptom-tracker. Instead, this bespoke journal offers a safe space where people with chronic illness can learn to look inwardly and reconnect with themselves in bitesize, energy-friendly ways.

Book Synopsis

Pave Your Way With Chronic Illness is a unique lifestyle journal for people living with long-term health conditions. It's designed to help you reconnect with yourself and the things that make you happy, while holding space for the challenges of chronic illness.

Rather than focussing on the medical side of your diagnosis, together we'll take a broader look at your life and explore the things that truly matter to you.

With each section divided into low, medium, and 'better' battery questions to cater for fluctuating energy levels, inside you'll find thoughtful prompts and illustrations to help you:
- Identify the things that bring you happiness
- Adapt your environment to complement your access needs
- Reflect on and strengthen your relationships
- Build up your confidence and self-advocacy skills

Within these pages you'll find inclusive activities, creative ways to express yourself, and a safe space you can truly make your own. Get cosy and enjoy!
