Nourish + Move : Foundations for Physical and Mental Health
Our relationship with food and movement plays an important role in both physical and mental health—but building healthy habits doesn’t have to mean following rigid rules, pursuing weight loss, or striving for perfection. This course explores the foundations of nourishing your body and moving in ways that support health, energy, strength, and overall well-being.
Participants will learn practical, evidence-based strategies for eating consistently, meeting the body’s nutritional needs, incorporating enjoyable and sustainable movement, and recognizing the connection between nutrition, physical health, mental health, and quality of life. The course also addresses common messages and misconceptions about food, exercise, and health, while emphasizing flexibility, body respect, and a balanced approach.
Whether you are looking to improve your own relationship with food and movement or support others in doing so, this course provides a foundation for making health-promoting choices without getting caught up in diet culture, food rules, or all-or-nothing thinking.
Content Warning: This course talks about nutrition science and some mention of specific numbers around macronutrients. It also covers the nuance around nutrition science.
