Class Guidelines

Eat to Thrive Class Guidelines

  1. Focus, commit, and follow-through. Remember that “Winners never quit and Quitters never win”
  2. Respect.
    • Listen to the person speaking. If you have a question or comment, write it down and ask it after the person has finished speaking. 
    • If you are unable to attend class, let Betsy know at least 24 hours in advance so she doesn’t prepare for you. 
    • If you are detained, TEXT Betsy’s cell phone 617-835-2913. Enter class quietly and stay to exchange your DVDs after class. 
    • Turn off your cell phones
  3. Anonymity – what is shared here that’s confidential, stays here
  4. Be positive, unlimited, and unattached – avoid negativity, especially saying “I can’t”
  5. Support – we are all here to not only heal ourselves but to heal the planet. Be compassionate. Remember that love is the key

The Eat to Thrive program opened my eyes to the raw vegan lifestyle. I learned a myriad of recipes that are not only raw and vegan but delicious, quick, and easy. Another component of the course that I loved was the emphasis on the mind-body connection. I’ve found the corroboration between physical and mental energy to be enlightening; simply trying to smile more and be positive has already had an effect on my relationships with myself and my loved ones. The pay-as-you-can aspect of Eat to Thrive makes it extremely accessible and welcoming to all; it’s rare to find such a generous business and woman like Betsy Bragg. I encourage everyone to take this course and learn about the Hippocrates lifestyle!

I joined Eat to Thrive because I was intrigued by what living a raw plant-based lifestyle looks like! Through this experience, I learned an abundance of meditations, mindfulness activities, mouth-watering recipes, and stories shared by participants and guest speakers!  Every week brought something new to the table and I always left the class feeling hopeful and excited to try whatever was shared! Thank you to Betsy, the guest speakers, and everyone else that I was able to share this experience with!
