# 83 FOOD THERAPY:
A 100-HOUR, 9-WEEKEND CONTINUING EDUCATION
COURSE WITH ANNEMARIE COLBIN, PH. D.
The major objective of this course is to train health
professionals in using a variety of food therapies to
support the rest of their practice and to offer them tools
to help their clients make the changes they want to make
for their health and wellbeing.
Those of you who know Annemarie's approach know that the
philosophical framework is a mainstay of her teaching. In this
course there will be in-depth studies of a variety of paradigms
that can well be applied to understanding human beings: the
standard biochemical and thermodynamic view of classic
nutrition, contributions of modern sciences such as complexity
theory, chaos or non-linear dynamics, aspects of quantum
physicsand other theoretical frameworks. Attention will be
paid to how people get sick, what can make them well, the
immune system, and the mind-body connection, as well as
comparative dietary systems, their pro's, con's, and usefulness
to the practitioner. There will be a section on counseling skills,
setting up a consultation, andlearning to use your intuition.
Obesity, eating disorders, weight control andthe health of
childrenwill also be addressed. Finally, food and the mind, spiritual approaches, intentionality and energy work will all be considered.
This course will consist of three approaches intertwined: theory,
practice, and skill building. Teaching/learning methods will
include: lectures, discussions, commentary, critique, imagery,
reading of papers and books, presentations, and case studies.
There will be a final grade and a certificate will be given.
