The Journey

After the onset of a disability, the medical community focuses on our physical well-being. But where can people with disabilities find support for the emotional impact of a disability?

In this activity-based workbook, you will find the tools you need to cope with the emotional mental, and spiritual impact of a physical disability, chronic illness, or chronic pain.

Personal reflection questions prompt you to reflect on your experience, while discussion questions encourage participation in a group setting.

The topics include:

• Reflecting on Your Story
• Naming Your Losses
• Navigating the Journey of Grief
• Experiencing Change and Transition
• Living in Paradox
• Coping with Stress and Trauma
• Refilling Your Emotional, Mental, Physical, and Spiritual Resources
• Finding Meaning and Purpose in Life

The workbook includes an eight-week schedule to provide structure for support groups and facilitators.

Together, we can traverse the paths of emotional and spiritual health in this foreign land called Disability.
