Journey to Health!
The Watkins Institute is a Christian organization created to develop ways of leading our community in to a healthy lifestyle. It was also for me to create avenues in which people can seamlessly adapt and sustain a healthy lifestyle change. Our focus is to identify that part of your lifestyle which contributes or perpetuates a state of illness.
Once we identify the issue, we provide you with practical tools for you to help yourself obtain and sustain your state of “Optimal Health.” We believe that this can be best accomplished by preparing your body as a “Temple Fit for God to Dwell In.”
Many have tried to change their lifestyle on their own and have failed over and over. Some are not taking personal responsibility for their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual state of health, others can do it, but lack consistency. So many more feel hopeless, helpless or fearful about change. Many have given the management of their chronic condition over to someone else-they are unaware of their power to change their health circumstances. If you do not know how to make your health dreams a reality? If you need direction to reach your end goal? If you need peace of mind about the condition of your health, this program is for you.
