HLC Level 1: Three Days
 

This is the foundation of the Holistic Lifestyle Coaching Program, focusing on effective techniques for attaining optimal health from the inside out that can be implemented by anyone. Laypersons and health and fitness professionals have thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from this course. During HLC Level 1, you will use yourself as a case history, to become a living role model for your clients and patients! By completing questionnaires before the class, you can use this information over the three days to illustrate concepts and techniques. You will be shown how to identify common problems that, if not quickly recognized, can become roadblocks to success - such as ineffective exercise programming, poor nutritional habits, stress, hormonal imbalance and gastrointestinal disorders. Each day also includes practice of Zone Exercises that positively influence digestion, circadian health, stress and much more.

• Learn how to use questionnaire-based assessments that will help identify problem issues.
