BODY SHAPE: Learn the basic principles of body adaptability; the influence of genetics versus habits on our body shape and wellbeing. In this course, we look at how culture, trends, habits, your body's physiology, and adaptation over time all influence the way you look and feel.
HABITAT: How does our environment shape the way we look, feel, and perform? Productivity, health, and wellness are a direct consequence of how we spend our hours. Our bodies mould to movement and our senses, and our minds react to the stimuli of our surroundings. We look at how to influence our habits and, therefore, our mind and body through lifestyle choices. Discover the importance of sensory awareness, textures, ambience, and furniture, and their effect on our wellbeing and abilities. Learn simple, easy-to-implement tips and strategies that you can apply right away.
NUTRITION AWARENESS: This course is all about nutrition AWARENESS. It will inform the proud owner of any human body on developing an open-minded, healthy relationship with food while remaining tolerant of individual beliefs, cultures, preferences, and ethics. It's about learning to question diet fads, trends, and balance polarised opinions to find choices that suit our individual wellbeing, goals and beliefs. You will learn to become more intuitive and balanced in your choices, and to approach your relationship with food with a positive mindset.
