As busy professionals, we have experienced firsthand the challenges of balancing healthy and eco-friendly lifestyles with the strains of an overloaded schedule. We've also realized that most people do not actually look forward to adding more appointments and to-do's to their schedules. But, what if the appointment was a fun and interactive event meeting like-minded individuals or a class that you can take from the comfort of your own home? That's why we have developed practical and interactive online courses and opportunities in addition to the nature-based educational experiences that can be customized to your needs to help guide your personal way to wellness!
Maybe online learning isn't your thing - that's OK, because your kitchen or backyard is often the best classroom! Many of our nutrition and lifestyle support programs can be facilitated in private small group gatherings (see below) that we offer through either in-home gatherings or scheduled workshops throughout the Chicago-land area. |
Group Activities, Experiences & Events
Did you know that groups and camaraderie increases oxytocin, the neurotransmitter that evokes feelings of contentment, reduction in anxiety, and feelings of calmness and security? That's just one of the reasons we love group gatherings and support communities! The workshops, skill-building clinics, field trips and retreats allow participants to experience, interact, participate and take action...all while getting their hands dirty, so to speak. This is especially beneficial when embarking on a new endeavor or lifestyle change. The Institute also creates and facilitates custom private workshops or retreats to be facilitated in the privacy of the location of your choice. |
Program Development & Facilitation
The Institute facilitates and develops workshops and retreats for organizations and communities who want to G.R.O.W. healthy and happy communities. Programs can be customized to your organization's specific needs or based on an existing course or workshop. The Institute understands that time or technical and logistical components can often get in the way of creating the programs and offering the opportunities that an organization would like to offer their community.
