Purpose Without
adequate support, the vast majority of efforts to adopt healthier
lifestyle practices fail. The support of coworkers, family and friends
is essential to lasting lifestyle change. This video and resource guide
teaches effective peer support strategies including how to help set
goals, identify role models, eliminate barriers to change, locate
supportive environments, work through relapse and celebrate success. The
video is ideal both for those planning their own personal change and for
those seeking to support others in their efforts to adopt healthier
lifestyle practices.
Features Peer support
is seen through the eyes of five men and women who have stopped smoking,
adopted regular exercise, managed stress, overcome obesity, cut alcohol
and other drug abuse, rebuild careers and achieved new levels of mutual
respect in their relationships. Their success stories reveal how
support, when combined with initiative, can result in lasting and
positive lifestyle change. The single VHS tape includes 21-minute and
7-minute versions. With a Little
Help from My Friends comes with a resource manual that includes
self-assessments as well as workshop discussion questions.
