The Earth is Conspiring to Help Us
Cindy Olson Natural Health/Lifestyle Innovator

I explore the idea that life is a mutual exchange of gifts and abundance, asserting that the Earth actively supports our well-being if we remain humble and open. Through practical summer examples like composting and the resilient dandelion, I symbolize human adaptability and interconnectedness within the biosphere. Embracing this supportive relationship with the Earth fosters gratitude, sustainability, and personal growth, ultimately guiding us toward living more purposefully and harmoniously.

Happiness as a new way of life for 2026

Positivity in a world that is filled with war, poverty, famines, fires and anger.  We need to work collectively in our society for the betterment of all mankind and focus on the other rather than self, working together with camaraderie. 

 

Metabolic Health: The Key to Slow Aging and Extend Healthspan
Maricel Rocha Age Reversal and PQ Coach

Metabolic health plays a pivotal role in reducing biological age, empowering individuals to extend their health span, reduce risk of developing chronic diseases and enjoy a longer, healthier life. 

This presentation explores the critical role of metabolic health in slowing down the aging process and preventing chronic diseases. By understanding the hallmarks of aging—such as mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress—we can uncover the root causes of many age-related conditions. Through evidence-based strategies focusing on nutrition, lifestyle, and cellular optimization, we will explore practical approaches to improve metabolic health, extend health span, and promote age reversal. 

Growing Food is like Growing Flowers
Mary Lummerding Cooking Coach

Mary does not teach how to cook.  She focuses on the organization of the food, equipment, recipes and choice of music to play while cooking and eating.

Benefits of cooking at home include saving money to use elsewhere, get healthier, and creates social opportunities.  Imagine showing up at a neighbour or friend's house who is sick and handing them a delicious casserole!

Cooking at home can be easy and enjoyable.  Mary will help you to find the path to Easy Healthy Cooking.
