Mindful Nutrition Diploma

In the Western world we have lost control. We generally grow up richer, with more possessions than the human race has ever seen, we don’t usually go hungry and we have developed a culture of instant gratification. Yet we have lost control, no longer do we eat in response to just our real hunger - our emotions, habits and behaviours and the addictive properties that are now added to everyday foods play a huge part in our mindless eating.

There is an overwhelming link between our minds, our bodies and the food in which we eat. Yet without education and stillness of thought we barely recognise the connection.

We rush into each day, eat over processed foods and worry about our weight and body image. Every town is filled with fatty foods, temptation and every supermarket aisle filled with foods that are harming our body, mood and mental health.

This Mindful Nutrition Diploma course addresses all of the habits that we are raised to embrace, it addresses how you can quieten your own mind and fuel your body properly. We talk of mindfulness, nutrition and how the two are linked. The contents of the course will change your view of food forever, along will preparing you to show others the way back to eating with awareness.
