Our 5-day Recovery Training Course is a practical, supportive programme for people who want to strengthen their recovery from drugs and alcohol and build the tools needed for a positive future.
Delivered by Recovery Coaching Scotland, the course is rooted in lived experience and takes a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach. It isn’t about telling people how to recover. Instead, we help participants understand themselves better, recognise what they already have going for them, and develop practical skills they can use in everyday life.
Week 1 - Thursday 17th Sept AM & PM, Friday 18th Sept AM & PM
Week 2 - Friday 25th Sept AM & PM
Week 3 - Thursday 1st Oct AM & PM Friday 2nd Oct AM & PM
Across the five days, we explore topics including Recovery Capital, the Cycle of Change, resilience, personal values, positive self-talk, emotional intelligence, trauma and recovery, boundaries, active listening and powerful questions.
The course is interactive and welcoming, with plenty of opportunity for discussion, reflection and shared learning. Participants will work on identifying their own goals and aspirations, understanding what supports their recovery, and developing a personal toolkit they can continue using long after the course finishes.
By the end of the five days, participants will have:
A better understanding of their own recovery journey
Practical tools for managing challenges and creating change
Greater awareness of their strengths, values and goals
An understanding of Recovery Capital and how to build it
Skills around communication, boundaries and emotional wellbeing
Increased confidence and connection with others
Whether you're at the beginning of recovery, have been on the journey for some time, or simply want to explore what a thriving future could look like, you are welcome.
Five days. Practical tools. Lived experience. Your recovery, your way.
