“Healing Our Relationship With Food” Masterclass

Join us on Wednesday February 18th from 12-1:30pm
Join Raina Lutz and ISPARC as we learn about traditional foods, whole foods, and the power of ancestral healing through food — offering a grounded, nourishing approach to wellness.
Participants will walk away with:
✨ A clear understanding of wellness fundamentals and how wellness should feel
✨ A deeper understanding of the power and tools already within your body (and we’ll practice the most impactful one!)
✨ Insight into the 80/20 rule and how it can relieve the pressure to be perfect
✨ A renewed sense of excitement around wellness and self-care
✨ Cultural inspiration, motivation, and perspective shifts for inner transformation
A thoughtful, empowering experience for anyone looking to reconnect with food, body, and self. 🌱
