What you'll learn

  • Participants will learn how to develop a sustainable healthy lifestyle motivated by faith and informed by science.

Requirements

  • Willingness to make small sacrifices today for a healthier tomorrow.

Description

Would you like to improve the shape you’re in? Do you want to participate with friends and family in games and outdoor activities?  Do you want to have the kind of body that enables you to serve the Lord through serving others?

If the answer to any of those questions is “Yes” this is the course for you.  The course combines the Biblical principle of taking care of our bodies (the why) with the latest scientific findings for optimizing health through lifestyle (the how).   

Course components include...

  • Bible verses for motivation and direction

  • Video lessons with clear, specific, and scientifically sound information for healthy living

  • Resource videos that demonstrate simple exercises that can be done in your home without expensive equipment

  • Reflection questions to help you focus on how the lessons apply to you individually

  • Quizzes (not graded!) to help you recall the key points of the lessons

Course topics include...

  • Understanding the profound impact of lifestyle on health and disease

  • Dealing with stress, alcohol, and tobacco 

  • Developing a sound plan for nutrition and avoiding the quick-diet trap

  • Formulating a plan for involving movement and activity as part of your daily routine

Threaded through the course is a focus on motivation and consistency.  You will learn how to live so that you get to your goal weight and keep at that weight as a natural part of your lifestyle and not as a temporary goal that comes and goes.  The course is not a “Quick fix” or a miracle cure.  It defines a program that is challenging and requires daily discipline.  The objective is to start training from day one for lifelong success. 

When you complete this course, you will understand the essential elements of living a healthy lifestyle.  You will be able to...

  • Deal with stress and potentially toxic substances

  • Shop for food that is rich in nutrients and low in sugar and unhealthy fats

  • Plan your day to include activities that strengthen your heart, muscles, and bones

Your instructor, Dr. Jim Mitroka, has the experience and training to be your guide.  He has years of experience as a biomedical research scientist and as a university instructor.  Dr. Mitroka developed and teaches a healthy lifestyle course to Pharmacy students. 

Please be aware that Dr. Mitroka is not a physician and the content of this course is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
