Convenience - We are a society who have lived with drive through banking and fast food eating and are rapidly moving in the direction of drive through pharmacies and dry cleaning. We live in a fast paced world; when we can also work education and personal development into our busy schedules and on our own terms we find that there are no more excuses - it's time to live well.
Flexibility - You can attend the group sessions at the scheduled time or listen to the sessions and complete your “learning assignments” during your lunch break, while the kids are practicing soccer, or while cooking dinner (however, too much multi-tasking is discouraged). You do not need to rush to get to your next appointment or deal with the afternoon traffic every night at 6:00pm. You will now have the option of discovering your wellness ingredients through the learning assignments in the morning, afternoon, or evening - on your own schedule.
Green-Learning - There isn’t enough that can really be said about this; The Earth and Water Wellness Institute is all about reducing our footprint and creating more sustainable living. The online and virtual courses and programs help you avoid the weekly or monthly commute to another appointment - the sessions come to you wherever you happen to be at the time. Whether you are at home, at work, on the road or at your favorite get-away, you can have the convenience of learning in an environment in which you are comfortable and at ease. Also, all the education materials are available as downloads - we encourage all students to save paper and save them to your computer (not print them)!
Less Expensive - No more on the road convenience meals, figuring out what to do with the kids, weather and traffic stress or gas guzzling trips to a medical clinic forty minutes away twice a week. You can now enjoy in your own home the benefits without many of the financial and time management hardships that are often associated with healthcare and education.
Confidentiality - Most importantly, food and eating can be a very sensitive subject for many. However, many individuals feel more comfortable and are able to express themselves more easily through the online and virtual programs; and remember, you still have in-person options available to you, but the online community forums that are almost always available in conjunction with the courses is an added bonus to help you stay on target.
