Holistic Health Practitioner Training

This 250 hour State Approved Program prepares healthcare and helping professionals to harness the power of the holistic perspective and put it to work for themselves and those in their care as Holistic Life Coaches and Teachers.  While exploring a wide range of themes related to a holistic lifestyle, students develop life-changing skills for health, happiness, and personal fulfillment for both themselves and their patients, clients and students.  

The course work is designed to help us connect fully to life in body, mind, and spirit, as we learn the skills and tools we need to work with others.  Through each of the content themes, we deepen our awareness of how everyday choices affect health, personal growth, and quality of life.  In-class activities and homework assignments provide opportunities to relate course content directly to our own experiences and to further develop ourselves as professionals.

The Holistic Health Practitioner Training is an excellent way of creating or expanding employment opportunities at a time when prevention and wellness, integrative medicine, and a holistic perspective on lifestyle are growing in popularity.  Learning to work from a holistic perspective will enable you to reach the growing number of people who understand the link between lifestyle and health and are looking to take greater responsibility for their own well-being.
