Long covid peer support programme
What is the Long Covid Peer Support Programme?
It is a bespoke course designed to help you manage your Covid symptoms more effectively. Learn to listen to your body and slow down and accept your recovery journey.
The course is filled with guided videos, relaxation and breathing techniques to help with stress and anxiety and relaxing audios to help your body systems to recover at their own pace. You can study at home with additional peer support from me and a group of like minded people through weekly calls.
if you’ve had long-term Covid (or as it’s been dubbed ‘long Covid’), like me, you’ll know about the overwhelming tiredness, the headaches, lack of sleep, panic attacks and many other symptoms that can seem unexpected that come with this virus. It isn’t a 2 week experience for many.
This peer support programme is designed to help you share your experiences with others who have gone through a similar experience . The bespoke audios are in 6 modules to assist you to bring your awareness into your body systems so you can respond to what your body needs. This allows you to accept the pace that is right for you.
I’ve experienced the positive effects from taking this programme, as have others, which is why I honed and refined it to share the benefits and help you.
I'm Karen Haworth. I'm a long-term Covid sufferer and I developed the Covid Get Better Programme.
Hello
My Story of tacking the symptoms
I contracted the Covid-19 virus in March of this year.
Although I ‘recovered’ from the initial illness, I was left with many symptoms that affected me enormously. For someone who is always on the go...
The Programme is for you if you’ve had Coronavirus and are experiencing symptoms that are limiting what you can do.
You may not be able to work or go out shopping as you used to. You may struggle to climb stairs or do general jobs around the house.
It’s not a quick fix – it’s not intended to be – but it’s intended to give you relief from the symptoms you’re experiencing, and give you a sense of control.
It’s important to know that this has not been designed for people who have been hospitalised with the virus, or who have severe symptoms. Please always talk to your doctor if your symptoms are this serious.

How DOES this help?
Yes. This isn’t just my own experience.

Yes. This isn’t just my own experience.
You can see examples of people who have been through the programme to read about their stories. You will also benefit from being with like-minded people. People who can relate to what you’re going through – who know that the symptoms don’t end after 2 weeks. This makes for great support and understanding, both during the programme

Eleanor
"I learnt how to ‘send messages to myself’ to help me slow down. The words Karen uses in the meditation stayed with me and helped me with coping strategies and to manage my symptoms better. "
Jane
" I was surprised how the meditations helped with breathing. I also found my levels of concentration improved and my sleep patterns. "
Positivity about recovery
Yes. This isn’t just my own experience.
Positivity about recovery
Those on the programme have reported feeling more positive about their health and recovery too.
"Praising my body instead of cursing it. Having peer support. "
"I did not expect to get such dramatic improvements. I have renewed confidence that I have the tools to recovery fully. "
and the results came in...
Others who’d had a different experience of Covid with underlying health problems, were getting relief.
