NUTRITION RE-EDUCATION CLASSES

WHY NUTRITION?
Nutrition is the understanding of how our body works, what it needs and what it does not. It is the philosophy of life itself, and not merely the knowledge of food - as is commonly understood. Nutrition covers the entire sphere of living. It is only through correct Nutrition that health and healthy living can be achieved.

WHY RE-EDUCATION?
- To bring back the importance and relevance of Nutrition in daily living.
- To look at Nutrition as a whole, without fragmenting into isolated parts like diets or calorie intake or specific treatments for an ailment.
- To break current prevailing myths on Food and move towards health-boosting choices based on wholesome, natural, raw, palatable and sustainable foods.
- Not many of us are able to experience vibrant health - and yet health is the natural state of our body! Hard to accept perhaps, yet that is what the human body has been designed for.
- Understanding that dis-ease is the body not being at ease.
WHY NUTRITION RE-EDUCATION CLASSES?
At THAC we believe in the philosophy that Self Care is the most direct way to Health Care. Health Care is living according to Natural Laws. Health itself is a state of wholeness, where every organ is in sync with other organs. This state can be experienced when we live in alignment with Natural Laws. Both Self Care & Health Care are closely connected with Earth Care.
Our lifestyle choices hence, should be based on ethical and ecological principles, which can build our own capacity to stay well, as well as knowing that what is good for our body is good for the earth too.
