What we eat matters. When we eat matters. It helps us to think better, perform better, and feel better.
We have access to so many varieties of food. The choices are staggering. We know how fortunate we are living in a culture where food is readily available. And yet, the overwhelming information about what to eat and when to eat it often leaves us feeling confused, even stressed.
Wellbeing is all about the choices that we make in everything we do. What we say to ourselves and to others. The food we eat, the rest we get.
Sustenance is a new course by Radiant Wave - focusing on taking the pressure off the table, and bringing passion and fresh hope to the kitchen through nourishing ourselves and our families.
Food starts in the head and gut. And how our thoughts work with and affect the gut. When we are tense, our diet is "In Tense". When our minds are relaxed, the gut is better prepared and able to assimilate the nutrients we put into our bodies.
We are here to make food prep easy and most of all fun. Chef Nina Ryckerwaert's wholesome programs will have you kitchen inspired in no time at all!
Knowledge is definitely power when it comes to sustaining our bodies and minds. That, and learning to listen better.
The benefits of good nutrition on student performance is stunning. If your child is sensitive, the importance of good nutrition is even more important.
By equipping ourselves with better knowledge around our own nutritional needs, we can then deepen our understanding of the needs of our students and children.
What works for one person does not always work for the next. There isn't a one size fits all for nutrition. Instead, we need to listen and watch carefully to understand how each child and adult operates from what they are putting inside of their mouths.
According to nutrition coach Keri Ann Jennings:
"Intuitive eating is an eating style that promotes a healthy attitude toward food and body image. The idea is that you should eat when you're hungry and stop when you're full. Though this should be an intuitive process, for many people it's not."
Food is the most basic aspect of human survival. And yet, we often struggle to listen to these basic needs.
Our Sustenance course is about helping to look at our eating choices and creating added wellbeing through informed nutritional options.
It's the beginning of the story and the end of the story. Good food choices matter. And how we approach each meal is of utmost importance.
