Juggling and Climate Change - Connecting Personal Wellness with Planetary Wellness
CEU OPPORTUNITY: Participants learn to juggle with scarves and/or beanbags and learn about climate change through direct experience becoming hurricanes, frogs, penguins, polar bears. They see how personal action has planetary effects. Understand connections between clean air and healthy respiration, abundant clean water and reduction in disease, wholesome non-processed food and healthy diet, regular exercise and healthy environment. Finally, work in teams to create sustainability checklists tying together individual action and planetary wellness. Awesome take-home value!
