a course in Vitality: Habitual Health

A nail is driven out by another nail;
habit is overcome by habit.
Latin Proverb

Do you desire to establish permanent health habits and transform the vitality of your body once and for all? If you are you ready for a permanent and pleasant change in your lifestyle, to re-build the temple to your soul according to your highest blue print, The Self-Actualization Learning Center has just the course for you - that's more than just skin deep.

Beyond the run-of-the-mill programs on building health that focus on what you should and shouldn't eat & exercise - that but hack at the 'leaves' of the problem - 'a course in Vitality' addresses the problem at its root: cultivating the psychology of the authentically healthy, within and without.

'a course in Vitality' helps you expand your awareness of your body and its sensory mechanism, expands your ability to think accurately regarding the choices for health and most importantly, it expands your dual abilities to apply self-control upon the 'bad choices' and to apply 'initiative' on the good. By the end of this course, all these skills will become second nature and automatic.

The greatest wealth is health.
Virgil

What You Can Realize
This six week-long program is designed for self-actualizers who seek to create a permanent health solution for their life that begins from the inside out. There are two overarching goals in this course:

- to remove the negative habits that degenerate one's health;
- to re-define and establish a set of healthy habits that empower you for a longer and expanded life.

Your Course of Habitualization
The program is based on the development of the ethos-principle of 'reverence for life' and the four cardinal virtues for goodness and excellence, as originally identified by Plato: prudence, temperance, fortitude, and justice. Through readings into philosophy, psychology and personal development, individuals cultivate daily these four life changing virtues, through specific mental and physical exercises.

The habit of healthy living is engrained at a root level, as a holistic solution that encompasses all aspects of building a healthy body: knowledge, self-control, training and the right attitude. The expression of these four virtues leads to a permanently engrained health-consciousness that brings about fundamental vitality and the ability to perform much closer to one's potential.

Prerequisite: The Four Faculties of Happiness

As a people, we have become obsessed with health.
There is something fundamentally, radically unhealthy about all this.
We do not seem to be seeking more exuberance in living as much as staving off failure, putting off dying. We have lost all confidence in the human body.
Lewis Thomas
