Do you notice a connection between your child’s eating habits and his or her athletic performance?  Coaches do.  That’s why they give their players bananas and oranges at half time.  They recognize the relationship between their players’ performance and the nutrients that they take into their bodies.  Imagine how much better your child could perform in his or her chosen sport if you had a coach to help you plan healthy meals and develop a routine for regular exercise?  Your child would be able to do his or her best on the field, in the classroom, and beyond.

That’s why Dr. Sears, along with exercise physiologist Sean Foy, created a series of interactive workshops to help families embrace four key areas of health: Lifestyle, Exercise, Attitude, and Nutrition. With the simple tools provided by Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. workshops, many parents notice a marked difference in their child’s ability to perform and focus, not just on the field, but in all areas of life.

Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. Workshops Will Help You:

* Understand the link between good nutrition and your child’s performance

* Implement small changes that will help your child’s ability to maintain focus and energy

* Make healthy, nutritious food choices for your whole family—even on a budget
