This course will help practitioners become aware of the interaction of the individual’s personality and life experience and the impact this has on his/her physical and emotional sense of well being. Having achieved this understanding the practitioner will become equipped to make the necessary positive interventions as an integral part of his/her holistic practice.  Insight in this subject also provides a powerful tool for the personal development and empowerment of the practitioner.

The course consists of 10 lessons which will be marked by an IRCH Tutor who specializes in this subject.  An Assessment paper will be included at the end of each lesson to monitor the student’s progress and understanding.
