Learn the Power 9 for a happier, healthier life

Blue zones regions are areas where people live measurably longer, happier lives with lower rates of chronic diseases and a higher quality of life. There are five original blue zones regions recognized worldwide: Ikaria, Greece; Loma Linda, California; Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica; Ogliastra Region in Sardinia, Italy; and Okinawa, Japan.

Researchers, scientists, and health care professionals are fascinated by this health population anomaly and have spent years studying the habits, lifestyles and diets of those living in these longevity hotspots. What they found in their research can be accredited to the Blue Zones’ Power 9® principles.

This course will explore the commonalities found within these regions and outline best practices for applying these principles to your everyday life – for improved health, longevity and happiness.
