Nutrition, Health & Well-Being
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Detox Your Life! Detox has become the buzzword in the health and wellness space. Odds are, you’ve seen advertisements, articles, books, and social media posts about detoxing. But what does detoxing actually mean? It’s often associated with nutrition, but as you’ll learn in this course, detoxing can be about so much more than that.
This course will help you gain clarity on what detox means and learn how to detox in ways that work for you.
You will learn and have comprehensive strategies for reducing toxins in the following categories:
Nutrition: When it comes to food, detoxing is more than just “eating clean” or choosing organic. In this module, you’ll learn key strategies for nourishing yourself with foods that support the body’s innate healing processes. You will explore how to nurture and energize yourself in doable and enjoyable ways.
Beauty Routine: So many products are filled with questionable ingredients, but finding clean and safe products that are also sustainable can be challenging. In this module, you’ll learn how to make personal care choices that support your health from the inside out while supporting the environment’s health.
Home: Create and cultivate the clean living space of your dreams. Make the most of your home environment by minimizing harmful chemicals and energizing the area. In this module, you’ll dive into what it means to detox your home and how to design and care for your personal living space in ways that help you thrive.
Mind: Become the best version of yourself by living mindfully. For many, physical and emotional health are already a priority. However, it’s essential to consider mindset’s impact on overall health and well-being. In this module, you’ll learn about mindfulness, the mind-body connection, and how detoxing your mind can empower you to live the life you want!
