“Permaculture gives us a toolkit for moving from a culture of fear and scarcity to one of love and abundance”
– Toby Hemenway

ERP’s Integral Health Promotion through Permaculture training enables learners to explore how to use permaculture as a foundation to support healthy attitudes and lifestyles for themselves, their families and communities.

The two-day workshop is designed to expand awareness of holistic health practices, shift perceptions around food and provide participants with practical skills to be healthy.

The training uses an integral framework to empower learners to engage holistically with health, nutrition, physical activity and practical herbalism. Learners participate in practical exercises of cooking, preparing herbs and physical movement.

Physical exercises are accessible to learners of all ages and genders with emphasis on the use of gentle repetitive movement, breath, stretching and body-awareness to build balance, co-ordination, flexibility, postural integrity and range of motion.

The information is presented in the vernacular, encouraging learners to engage with the concepts and practices presented in an interactive way that crosses the language barrier.

Among the topics explored:

An integral map of health
Food security
Dietary diversity
Environments, health and permaculture
Food, lifestyle and common health issues like diabetes, obesity, hypertension, HIV/AIDS, TB
Key nutrients
How to protect your health with micronutrients and anti-oxidants
How to reduce the risk of diabetes and obesity
Food groups and power foods
How to add flavour and boost health with spices and culinary herbs
How to prepare nutritionally balanced and dense foods
How to use herbs to manage common ailments
Physical activity and posture
Social strategies to improve food security
