WHY I TOOK MY YOGA TEACHER TRAINING AT 67

This post is not particularly about Yoga, but about learning something that sticks, stays and integrates naturally into your self care practice.

I often need some inspiration to stay disciplined (with the exception of food- haha) with a exercise protocol. I liked yoga and knew it worked wonders, but never really got into it, if you know what I mean.

When I was in my early 50’s I had the opportunity to attend a yoga studio in Santa Cruz. I loved the atmosphere, the teachers and the style of the practice. But, when I moved away I never found “the perfect place again and.subsequently lost my dedicated practice.

But, I knew deep in me that learning yoga and practicing yoga as a dedicated practice was probably one of the single more powerful things I could do for myself for my years to come - in other words “for aging”. So, I signed up for a 30 day yoga teachers retreat in Mexico . It was grueling, but it worked. It gave me the foundation to practice at home, the insight for what was most important, and what to do when I was injured, tired and/or wanted to build stamina and/or flexibility. I wasn’t sure I wanted to teach yoga,. My intent to establish a strong practice. I wanted Yoga to become a part of me.

This is what I want for you. I want to encourage you to take a Food Matters Nutrition Certification Program. so that the right diet becomes a part of you. No second guessing, no wondering. Instead to become empowered, confident and knowledgable to make wise and healthy choices. When life throws you curves you will be ready. Take you and your body on a nutrition cruise. I guarantee you will not regret it.

The Food Matters Nutrition Certification Program is an incredible opportunity. When you finish it, you will come away with a complete understanding of how to nourish your body for the rest of your life. You will not be learning a “diet” so to speak, but the foundational principles around nutrition, gut health, cleansing, regenerating, aging, cooking methods, and so much more. It will be a gift to yourself and your family - a gift that keeps on giving. You will learn the language used in nutrition so as things change and we learn more, Having this knowing inside of you will make it MUCH easier to put a healthy diet and self care protocol into your daily life, now, and as you age.

Many of my followers came my way through Food Matters or FMTV (remember the great movie titled “Food Matters”)? Or, you may have come to me through The Food Revolution Network (John & Ocean Robbins). Now almost 20 years later, despite all the messaging from these pioneers of nutrition, myself included, people still eat crappy food, foods that are causing inflammation, weight gain, digestive issues, daily pain, degenerative diseases and ultimately death. The state of our health is still declining from many factors, but food is up front and central. So, I am here to say as loud as I can, “FOOD MATTERS!”

The state of health has actually become worse as our food supply is also coming up short. Oh dear! What is really going on here and where is the help we need to create knowledge, inspiration and applied action to get and stay healthy? Well, it is here, right now!

The Food Matters Team - the nutrition pioneers we have grown to trust are offering a Nutrition Certification Program. Now, don’t think for a moment that you don’t need such an education because you do not plan a profession in nutrition. You might instead need this to educate "YOURSELF”. I encourage this because there are so many changing voices out there with regards to what I call FAD Diets.

There are also terms and a language the science of nutrition has that can seem complex, and hard to understand. Perhaps you are confused, or maybe your diet is impeccable and yet your are still suffering from health conditions and not regenerating like you think you should. Perhaps you are confused about which way to turn. My recommendation is to learn as much as you can about nutrition as you can from a respected source so that you are empowered to take control of your health for the rest of your life!

There is so much more I want to share about this nutrition certification program and food, but I will save it for another post. But, for now take advantage of the free 7 part masterclass series that Food Matters is launching this week! Sign up here and you will receive the links for a free new masterclass every day (begins on Sept. 27th) on subjects like, gut health, hormones, dealing with cravings, detoxing, and AGING (with yours truly).
