The Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute is a non-profit school dedicated to teaching Dr. Ann Wigmore's Living Foods Lifestyle® through our one and two-week certification program.
 

Occasionally one-week retreat programs are offered. Throughout the year graduate students of the certification program are welcome to come back for a personalized healing retreat.

Two-Week Living Foods Lifestyle® Certification Program
Immerse yourself in the Living Foods Lifestyle. Monday through Friday of each week, we teach classes that give you a basic knowledge of Living Foods, as well the tools you'll need to continue living the lifestyle when you return home. The program provides practical experience in hands-on workshops which teach you planting, composting, sprouting, harvesting, food preparation, detoxifying the body and others. During your stay we also integrate areas such as yoga, breathing, self-esteem and skin care. If you attend all the required classes, you'll receive a certificate of completion at the end of your stay.

This is the authentic program developed by Ann Wigmore. Learn the lifestyle while living it. Every day, we serve Living Foods meals, consisting of our famous energy soup, as well as fresh raw fruits and vegetables, and sprouted grains, nuts, and seeds. We are not a gourmet raw food spa. Our program is like a living foods boot camp for people seriously interested in cleansing, healing, and learning the basics. To jump-start your cleanse in a gentle and safe manner, all the meals are blended on Tuesday through Thursday of the first week. There's also an all-blended day in the second week. Rejuvelac and wheatgrass juice are available at all times to facilitate your body's natural healing process.

Monday through Friday, classes begin at 6:15 a.m. with yoga and continue with activities including drinking wheat grass juice, eating breakfast, and attending classes. After lunch, there's a break until the afternoon classes, followed by dinner and most nights an evening class. Since there are no formal classes on Saturdays and Sundays, you are free to enjoy the beach (the school is less than 50 yards from the ocean) or take in some sightseeing.

The program fee includes accommodations, all classes, three daily meals, a morning and afternoon snack, and a ride to and from one of our local airports. Therapies, such as massage and colonics, are optional and priced separately.
