Be inspired to develop daily routines that nurture your path to personal empowerment. Explore various holistic approaches to healing while learning to set up your living food kitchen. Expand your nutritional knowledge, including the A-B-C’s of sprouting and the optimal benefits of an alkaline and enzyme-rich diet. Each evening will include a lesson about a key topic for health and nutrition, a featured guest speaker with experience in the field, a vegetarian dinner, and a presentation of vegan breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipes.  Throughout the program you will gain access to a variety of healthy, delicious vegan recipes and learn how simple, enjoyable, and affordable it can be to change your lifestyle. During the 10 weeks of this program, you will not only be able to change your life, but you will learn the skills required to ensure a long, healthy life for your family as well.
