Health & Wellness Workshops
Dr. Christa Seybold-Haynes ist Ärztin für Allgemeinmedizin, Ernährungsmedizin, Psychosoziale und Psychosomatische Medizin und Gestaltpädagogin. Sie unterrichtet seit 1988 in der Lehrer- und Erwachsenenbildung, und bietet derzeit folgende Kurse an:
Gesund an Leib und Seele— Psychosomatik und ganzheitliche Gesundheit
„Der Körper lügt nicht“. Diese tiefe Weisheit alter Kulturen und ganzheitlicher Therapiekonzepte findet auch in der modernen Medizin immer mehr Anklang. Heilung kann nur von innen heraus geschehen, und erfordert die bewusste Auseinandersetzung mit den nonverbalen Botschaften des Körpers, dem Körperbild, archetypischen Symbolen, Träumen, inneren Bildern und Lebenskonzepten. Unser „inneres Kind“ weiß, was wir brauchen, und will uns helfen, ein gesundes, selbstbestimmtes Leben zu führen.
Gesunde Ernährung und Heilwissen der Bibel
Da die Mediterrane Kost von vielen Ärzten als wertvolle Ernährungsform empfohlen wird, beschäftigt sich dieser Kurs mit der biologischen Vollwertkost, die seit Jahrhunderten für den Mittelmeerraum typisch ist. Einzelne Vertreter der reichen biblischen Pflanzenwelt werden auch heute noch in der Heilkunde und natürlichen Schönheitspflege verwendet und laden uns ein, dieses traditionelle Wissen neu zu entdecken.
Sterbebegleitung, Trauerarbeit, Krisenbewältigung
Trennung, Scheidung, Tod – der Verlust eines geliebten Menschen ist immer eine zutiefst erschütternde Erfahrung. Oft ist es schwierig, all die überwältigenden Gefühle und Veränderungen zu verarbeiten, weil das eigene Leben zu zerbrechen scheint. Ein tieferes Verstehen der verschiedenen Phasen der Konfliktbewältigung und Trauerarbeit ist hilfreich, um lebenshemmende Fixierungen zu überwinden und Entwicklungsprozesse einzuleiten, die eine innere Heilung und spirituelle Versöhnung ermöglichen. Wer in Frieden loslassen kann, hat zwei Hände frei, um das Leben neu zu umarmen.

Discover Your Body’s Wisdom
Stress weakens our immune system and is therefore
an important factor responsible for the development of diseases.

messages of our body as a natural way to activate our innate
wisdom and self-healing power. In this class you will learn
how increased body awareness, mindful breathing and stress
relief strategies can help you restore your natural equilibrium.

Easy Ways to Better Health and Nutrition
In a lifestyle that glorifies instant gratification,
fast foods and quick-fix solutions, the long-term consequences
of certain reflex actions, eating habits and even thinking
patterns that support these habits are often neglected. These
patterns of actions, and the habitual thoughts behind them,
can often promote disease such as cancer and other major health
problems. Therefore the first serious step toward better health
is a thoughtful, well-balanced diet. Because each one of us
is a unique individual possessing his or her own distinct
biochemical variations, there is no set, rigid diet that applies
to everyone. There are, however, universal central tendencies
and cause-and-effect relationships that we all share as human
partakers of Nature's bounty. This course will help you understand
the basic rules of a mindful, healthy and balanced nutrition.

Healing the Loss of a Loved One
Separation, divorce, death - the loss of a
loved one is always a deeply disturbing experience. Dealing
with the overwhelming emotions and insecurity is difficult
because one's whole life seems to fall apart. Based on years
of experience in hospice work and psychosocial counseling
the content of this class will help you to understand the
different phases of emotional crisis, grief and mourning and
to discover paths towards healing and spiritual reconciliation.

Power Foods for a Strong Immune System
Tremendous advances have been made in the prevention
of cancer and it is now an accepted fact that many cancers
can be prevented by a few simple changes in lifestyle. One
of the most important lifestyle issues is diet, since the
foods that we eat have a strong influence on our immune system.
This course will show you which foods are packed with cancer-fighting
compounds that can keep your immune system strong and prevent
the cellular changes that often lead to cancer.

Women's Wisdom for Modern Health
Since thousands of years, women have been the
care-givers for family and nature. Blessed with innate wisdom,
they used their intuition and knowledge of healing plants
to prevent disease and ease suffering. Hildegard of Bingen
(1098-1179), a German mystic and prophet, had divinely-inspired
visions throughout her life. These were the source of her
highly-valued system of healing based on a multi-dimensional
approach to the body, mind, emotions and spirit. In this class
we will compare Hildegard's message with the wisdom of other
healing traditions. Understanding the connection between a
healthful life-style and spiritual unity can inspire you to
discover a new vision of balance and peace in your life.
