Course Description

Renew Health is a five week program aimed at setting the stage for people to look, feel and perform at their absolute best. Do you want to abandon harmful habits, strengthen your resolve, learn and implement new skills, and become the best version of yourself? Committing to a five week revamp of habits and building new ones is the first step in long-term behavioral change. Gift yourself Renew Health as an opportunity to set the groundwork for the rest of your life. Working with the Nourish Five Foundational Principles of nutrition, sleep, movement, mindfulness and connection, the Renew Health program recognizes that to be on the best path for success in health you need to address and nourish these five areas. The Renew Health principles and exercises focus on the individual as a whole, not dealing with specific health issues or symptoms. This approach is preventative and at the same time has the intention to eliminate dis-ease. If your ultimate goal is to feel good in your body, have clarity of mind, and to enjoy life, then this course is where to start.

Integrative Health and Nutrition Counselors

Nourish Coaches

Integrative health and nutrition counselors Debbie Peterson and Wendy Bright-Fallon first met in 2007 at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) where they received their health and nutrition certifications. Debbie is a wife, mother of two and a retired college instructor. Wendy is a wife and former corporate executive. Both Debbie and Wendy counsel individuals, families and athletes in their quest for looking, feeling and performing their best. In addition to their private practice, Nourish, they run workshops, do regular speaking engagements, and produce a bi-weekly podcast, Nourish Noshes. Wendy and Debbie are passionate about helping people shift to eating closer to nature. They believe that one of the tools to leading a healing lifestyle includes playing with food. This inspired them to collaborate on writing nourish – a community created cookbook with over 140 simple and healthful recipes with pictures included to whet your appetite.
