Take Charge of Your Pain : Chronic Pain Self-Management Program

Fatigue, sleeplessness, stress, and fear are often side effects of chronic pain and can be difficult to manage each day. These symptoms can make everyday tasks sometimes impossible. The Take Charge of Your Health: Chronic Pain Self-Management webinar series weighs heavily on cognitive behavioral techniques for managing pain.

Expanded versions of weekly topics can include:

Balancing activity with rest.
Learning tools for overcoming worst-case thinking.
Working effectively with health care professionals.
Creating action plans for problem-solving and decision-making.

Participants will receive a hard copy of “Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Pain” as an additional resource. For series questions, contact Robin Ridgley, Health and Family Educator, at rridgley@illinois.edu or (217) 265-6805.

Participants must be 18 years of age.
