Cancer Recovery Course: What can I do to stay healthy?

This course has been written to acknowledge that the cessation of treatment is not the end of the cancer.

<h3>Cancer affects 1 in 2 of us in our lifetime. </h3>After years in general practice, I became increasingly concerned that people would often heroically navigate their cancer journey from the shock of diagnosis to the gruelling months of treatment. During this time, support often wrapped itself around them.
It was after treatment I saw the gap in care. Often people were left bewildered, with those around them expecting them to get back to &#x27;normal&#x27;. I saw oncology consultants and the voluntary sector looking to the GP to give lifestyle, nutritional and psychological support. But with 10-minute appointments and degradation in the continuity in care, this had become an impossible task.
This course has been written and delivered in response to this gap. It acknowledges that the cessation of treatment is not the end of the cancer journey but the new beginning.
As a medical doctor with 22 years of experience with expertise in lifestyle medicine, it pains me that many are unaware of the irrefutable evidence that our lifestyle decisions matter when treating and preventing cancer. 
This course isn&#x27;t to replace treatment; while there isn&#x27;t a drug in the world that rivals how effective lifestyle is in reducing risk, it aims to complement recovery. It will cover the topics of sleep, movement, stress, Nutrition and connection.This is a 6-week course guided by Dr Sally Bell. We keep the numbers small so that the content can be personalised to your life. Each session includes a short presentation by Dr Sally, practical applications for each week and a time to answer your questions.We will cover topics such as:<ul><li>What is the best diet for me?</li><li>How do I get to a healthy weight?</li><li>What does your body need in this season?</li><li>How do I exercise well after treatment?</li><li>How can I recover my emotional resilience?</li></ul>Dr Sally BellDr Sally, the founder of Dr Sally Bell, has 21 years experience as a medical doctor.
