Summary
Raised in uncertainty Udo Erasmus has spent the last 69 years studying how to be more in control of his own fitness and fulfillment - the key? Healthy oils and awareness of the magnificence that surrounds him! Food oils derived from seeds, says Udo, are some of the healthiest things you can add to your diet. Journey with us as we learn that the road to health may be paved with fresh oils, plants and taking time to be present in the moment. "Be inspired to look after yourself and get in touch with the magnificence of your existence!"
Lessons:
- Fried foods and fried oil fry health
- Seed food oils are healthy oils
- Be inspired to look after yourself
- Voluntary Solitude: take time to be quiet and contemplative each day
- Be present & fully relaxed- understand who you are & where you are
