From the Executive Director – Winter 2020-2021
Dear Members and Friends,
Another year has started, and while we’re still contending with the pandemic and economic uncertainty, now is a better time than ever to take our physical and emotional well-being into our own hands. At the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation, we remain committed to investing in your health and wellness.
As a Price-Pottenger member, you are nutritionally informed and, hopefully, have an effective wellness practice. But what about your friends and loved ones? What have you learned that would empower their well-being, when they need it most?
People are desperate to protect and advance their health, but they often don’t know who to trust and what path to follow. Recently, my friends have been reaching out, seeking natural immunity-enhancing recommendations and remedies to help keep illness at bay. I’ve shared what I know and what I’ve learned, and I hope that you are sharing your knowledge as well.
If it were up to Price-Pottenger members alone to alert the world to sound nutrition and lifestyle practices, I’m afraid that we would not reach herd competency anytime soon. That’s why we enacted a vital new community initiative last year to make urgently needed immunity information available to the public. Today, we’re featuring a COVID-19 Resources link to these articles at our website, and publishing a range of supportive nutrition content on our social media pages, all designed to share with friends.
On January 15, we launched our largest free-to-the-public nutrition education initiative ever with Thrive-in-65. This daily nutritionist-led journey to improve your health and knowledge by the first day of spring includes easy-to-digest, information-packed blogs, a daily health-step challenge, and a tasty recipe. The first of these blogs have been viewed thousands of times, and the entire series will remain available on a special Thrive-in-65 page (www.price-pottenger.org/thrive-in-65).
Finally, our very own Certified Clinical Nutritionist, traditional naturopath, and Price-Pottenger vice president, David Getoff, is back with an entirely new, live Attaining Optimal Health – Essentials class. Beginning March 16 and running for five consecutive Tuesdays, Essentials is available online by donation, with different contribution levels, including a needs-based zero dollar option, to ensure that it is accessible for all. Visit www.price-pottenger.org to sign up.
With publicly available COVID-19 resources, daily Thrive-in-65 articles and recipes, and David’s Attaining Optimal Health – Essentials classes, you can see that we are working hard to advance health beyond our member community alone. Your membership and support help to empower these and other initiatives, as well as our mission to improve lives through health and nutrition. Thank you!
In my search for peace during these uncertain times, I seek trusted information and embrace places of solace for how they inspire and empower me. That usually means connecting with friends and spending time outdoors, where the expanse of the sky and the abundance of nature fill me. And when I do, my gratitude goes out to the people in those 14 communities who welcomed and shared their dietary wisdom with Dr. Price nearly 100 years ago, and to you, our valued members.
Wishing you health and joy,
Steven Schindler
Executive Director
