What's inlcluded in the Foundations Intensive
1. Classical Homeopathy Transmission
The essence and bones of homeopathy has been lost with our modern approach to healing and medicine. One of Heathar's main missions as a classical homeopath is to pass along the classical knowledge and efficacy of this medicine, just as she was taught and trained over a decade ago.
2. Farm Fresh Food
Heathar truly believes that the most important part of any class or retreat is, the food! If you aren't nourished, you can't focus or retain information. Each afternoon, students will be provided with a farm fresh mini course lunch (this will include farm food and local produce such as eggs from our farm hens, pastured meats, root veggies and Heathar's homemade chocolates). All food will be organic and grass-fed.
3. Low EMF Environment
One of the many unique features of Heathar's farm is the exceptionally low EMF environment it provides. There is no WiFi on the property and cell phone use is prohibited at the farm (we want our bees and the humans who visit us to thrive)! All students will be asked to keep their phone in Airport Mode during the entire duration of the intensive. You will have access to a landline telephone and ethernet internet during the intensive and you and family members are more than welcome to call the farm landline in case of emergencies, family check-in’s or child breakdowns:)
4. The Great Outdoors
Heathar's farm borders BLM land providing everyone who visits the farm with thousands of miles of unobstructed views and miles of private hiking trails. During the afternoon class break, you will have access to the many hiking and walking trails that surround the property.
Foundations Intensive BONUS
Functional Movement Training
In Heathar's past life (AKA up until her early 20's) she played division I basketball (yes, even at 5'0 tall) and trained professional athletes. Today, Heathar is passionate about teaching people how to truly move and exercise in functional ways, in ways that support the health of the fascia and ways that improve mobility of the joints and tissues.
Every morning, before the Foundations Intensive, Heathar will lead a 90+ minute, outdoor Functional Movement session. By the end of the weekend, you'll know how to move, exercise and stretch in a truly functional way and you'll never need another gym membership again.
You can contact Heathar if you're interested in learning more about Functional Movement sessions during the Foundations Intensive.
