Fermentation for the Gut & Immune System
Date: June 11, 2026Â
Time: 9a – 4pÂ
Instructor: Barbara Nurenberg, CN, ND
Department: Food Revolution Department
Registration Deadline: June 10, 2026
One of the simplest skills we can learn to change our gut and immune health is to make use of the lost traditions of fermenting our food. This will be another hands-on opportunity to learn as you do. We will learn how to make apple cider vinegar, kimchi, sauerkraut, pickles, Water Kefer, and more. The best part will be the tasting of these items that were already prepared.

Nervous System Regulation
Date: June 13, 2026
Time: 9a – 4p
Instructor: Stacy Eding, CN, ND
Department: Energy Work Department
Registration Deadline: June 10, 2026
This class provides the skill sets needed in finding that balance between being able to respond to stressors when needed and being able to come back to a place of calm and relaxation. Most people are in a constant state of some form of nervous system dysregulation, fight, flight, fawn or freeze. Learning skills to help you recognize if you are in a state of dysregulation and what to do about it is an important step toward healing.

The Truth Series: Navigating
Date: June 26, 2026
Time: 9a – 4p
Instructor: Nicole Paquin, CN, ND
Department: Self-Healing Department
Registration Deadline: June 24, 2026
Dive into the myriad ways we are programmed to think, act, believe and see the world around us. This programming happens in such subtle ways as to be almost inconceivable. Most systems in place are designed for our destruction from the homes we live in, to the way food is produced, heath care systems are designed, etc. Learn how we can shed light on this darkness, pull back the curtain and get out of our own way – step into the light both figuratively and literally.

The Truth Series: Navigating
Date: June 27, 2026
Time: 9a – 4p
Instructor: Nicole Paquin, CN, ND
Department: Self-Healing Department
Registration Deadline: June 24, 2026
Part of our program begins with the belief that we are to obey authority, without knowing what and who that authority claims to be. Thus, we unknowingly enter contracts with authorities that give them controlling power. It is imperative that we begin the process of understanding what contracts we are entering into and with whom, unlawful vs. legal behavior and assumptions behind meanings of words. We will learn strategies to break the bonds we have unwittingly participated in.

Strategies for Living Free
Date: June 28, 2026
Time: 9a – 4p
Instructor: Nicole Paquin, CN, ND
Department: Self-Healing Department
Registration Deadline: June 24, 2026
Come explore new ways of interacting in the world while preserving your core integrity and sacredness. Insights will be given on the connection between beliefs and health, ways to protect oneself from environmental toxins and how to develop meaningful friendships with others who share similar goals. Gather tools to move forward with confidence and proceed with a life of abundance, freedom and longevity.
