This three-hour self-study with audio modules, handout and resources is being offered to health and wellness professionals who want to integrate health education with whole-body and environmental health and healing.
Our society is full of exposures that can have harmful effects on our health. Many toxins are found in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the soil our food grows in, the products we use on our body and in our home. In this course, we’ll take a journey as we wake up in the morning until we settle down for a good night’s sleep. Along the way, we’ll look at our daily interactions with seemingly innocent exposures ranging from brushing our teeth to driving. You’ll discover that our modern life is not only in opposition of our ancestors but that maybe we can learn from them and apply good habits to our electrically charged lives. You’ll learn how to make choices that embrace the health of you, your friends and loved ones as well as the Earth we live on.
