About this title

Synopsis

A calm, practical workbook for stroke recovery, reflection, and support.

After a stroke, information can feel overwhelming. Recovery may feel unfamiliar, exhausting, and hard to process. StrokeWize: Recovery in Colour was created to make stroke recovery guidance easier to understand, gentler to engage with, and more accessible for survivors, carers, families, and the professionals who support them.

Created in response to the real barriers many people face after stroke — including health illiteracy, fatigue, aphasia, reduced confidence with reading, and unequal access to clear support — this unique workbook offers a calmer, more human way to engage with recovery through accessible education, gentle mindfulness, and meaningful activity.

Inside, you will find:

• clear stroke education in accessible, supportive language

• progressive colouring pages linked to each topic

• visual metaphors to support understanding and reflection

• breathing anchor pages and gentle mindfulness prompts between chapters

• aphasia-friendly picture support

• QR access for audio, translation, and extra support, including multilingual audio support in 20 languages

• a dedicated Carer Companion section

The workbook moves through 5 themed chapters — Waves, Growth, Path, Strength, and Light — offering calm structure, therapeutic pacing, and hope from the early days of recovery through to looking ahead.

Created by Asif Patel, Clinical Lead for Stroke and Neurosciences Therapies, NIHR Fellow, and NHS Clinical Entrepreneur, this workbook draws on over 20 years of clinical experience supporting stroke survivors across acute care, rehabilitation, recovery, and life after stroke. It is designed to complement care, not replace it.

Whether you are a stroke survivor, family member, carer, therapist, rehabilitation unit, or community service, this workbook offers a supportive way to learn, reflect, and keep moving forward. It also makes a thoughtful and practical gift for a loved one navigating life after stroke.

Ideal for:

• stroke survivors in early recovery

• carers and families

• stroke units and rehabilitation teams

• therapy-led education and reflection

• supportive discharge and home use

StrokeWize exists to make high-quality stroke support more accessible — reducing barriers of language, literacy, and location, and helping more people access clear, practical guidance for life after stroke.
