The impact of cancer....
For most cancer survivor the battle doesn't end when treatment has finished. You might experience that cancer can:
  • bring an end to a phase of your life,
  • raise questions about the meaning of life,
  • test the bond of relationships,
  • serve as a wake up call to examine what has been resisted,
  • create the opportunity to start living a more authentic life,
  • give you permission to shift your priorities,
  • give you a hunger for life that might not have always been there,
  • give you a first-hand knowledge about the importance of living in the present
    moment,
  • help you realise just how insignificant most of our every day concerns are.
The impact of cancer and how it affects us is different in many ways for each of us and maybe it is good to know that it's normal and you're not alone in this.
The end of treatment is the beginning of something else; a rebuilding process that needs to be managed and directed.
This is where LYLAC (Live Your Life After Cancer), a social enterprise, will offer you the support you need at your level, for your needs. It is created by 2 women, both cancer survivors and qualified life coaches, one also being a GP.
What have you tried already?
You might have had (some) support already after finishing your cancer treatment. There are support groups available, there is help from counselling services, you can join a fitness programme to regain your physical strenghts, you might have already changed/improved your diet, experienced the relaxation of yoga, Reiki and meditation. But where do you go with these type of questions:
- What's next in my life?
- How can I move on from here?
- What are my priorities now?
- How can I live well after cancer?
- Who do I want to be(come) after this cancer experience?
You can still feel stuck and experience the lack of a specific support that will help you move forward in life, that will help you to rebuild your life, that will help you to make a plan for your future!
This is exactly what we offer with our LYLAC programme.
