Balance for Wellness Academy Seminars
The "gap" is a lack of knowledge that causes an imbalance in communication, health, hope, and planning. There are times when people do not even realize that this gap exists. |
BFW Academy, Inc. came to life in August 2015 to provide a platform for Dr. Lorri and her colleagues to teach individuals, groups, organizations and corporations about the benefits of integrating Eastern and Western philosophies in healthcare, business and life. Numerous seminars are offered surrounding the theme of transcending the the “Knowledge Gap” to allow for the optimal health of any system with the ultimate goal being Transformation from the Inside Out.
The "Knowledge Gap" is a lack of knowledge that causes an imbalance in communication, health, hope, and planning. There are times when people do not even realize that this gap exists. Lack of knowledge can include a certain diagnosis, information or feelings that are withheld by people and belief systems that are no longer accurate. When the imbalance is present, no system (the physical body, corporate structure, relationships, etc.) can operate efficiently and effectively. Differentiating Qualities: 1. We focus on the “whole” rather than the sum of its parts. A. Healthcare: Integrating practitioners to approach evaluation, diagnosis and treatment in a way to focus on the body system as a whole rather than a sum of its parts by using a balance of integrative, osteopathic and allopathic medicine for healing B. Business: Developing road maps to allow owners, leadership and employees, interdepartmental groups and internal and external customers to meet on common ground to enhance affinity, loyalty, outcomes and the bottom line C. Life: Tools to help individuals, groups and organizations understand the importance of boundaries, tolerations, expectations and desires to move communication from the gut to the educated mind and heart felt spirit 2. We are poised to educate, via the web or in person at our facility or yours, using proven, simplistic tools for immediate outcomes. 3. Our owner and her colleagues bring credibility through countless academic degrees, life experiences, personal health related issues and entrepreneurial endeavors. |
