Tailoring the Approach

Description

Each lesson in Course IV is sold with the introductory lesson.

In the introduction we first acknowledge the profound elemental nature of what we call nutrition; through death, life is nourished. Something as simple as knowing what as humans we are to eat, has become a fraught arena of conflicting ideologies, investments, biases, misinformation and marketing. In this confusion we review different frameworks for understanding what ‘is’ and reorientate to the ‘scientific method’. The invitation here is to bring awareness and curiosity to each of our biases, keeping heart and mind open to learning.

The Tailoring the Approach, we bring together the learning in a way that it can be applied in practice. We start by reviewing what is and what is not food, moving on to review nutritional ketosis and diets configured to carbohydrate tolerance. Approaches of plant and animal based nutrition are then looked at, weaving depth and nuance into the considerations. We touch on ways that seek to tailor nutrition to our ancestral lineages and our individual constitution as in Ayurveda. Finally, a series of case studies are shared demonstrating how what has been learnt can be put into practice.
