About the foundations of health discussion | In our fast-paced and technology-driven world, the foundations of health are easily ignored. Many of us are not aware of the crucial fundamentals that help sustain our bodies and minds. Things like fresh air, sunlight, clean water, nourishing food, suitable exercise, stress management and restful sleep form the foundation. During this 30-minute Foundations of Health discussion, Dr. Nicola Bennett will make sense of these principles by clearly explaining the not-so-simple physiology behind them. Knowledge is power – when we know why we are doing something, it becomes easier to implement into our daily lives. Dr. Nicola will give you trips and tricks that you can incorporate into your life today. Seemingly trivial changes can make a tremendous impact on your overall health and wellbeing.
