Ann Wigmore Institute .:. Our Programs

The Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute is a non-profit school dedicated to teaching Dr. Ann Wigmore's Living Food Lifestyle through our one and two week educational programs. You will receive a beautiful certificate as proof of accomplishment in completing either of these certification programs in the Living Food Lifestyle.

The knowledge gained in the core certification programs will provide you with enough insight and "hands on learning" to continue the lifestyle at home. You may share this valuable information with family and friends.

Please inquire about our one week retreat programs. These programs are offered periodically. A staff member can help you plan a personalized healing retreat. We welcome our past graduates to come and refresh their knowledge and commitment to their health journey.

New students are encouraged to take one of our core certification programs, however, if you wish, you may decide to take a reduced class schedule (without certification) to allow more time for relaxation. A staff member can assist you in making your program personal.

The Living Foods Lifestyle® Two Week Certification Program is for everyone wanting to learn all about Living Foods for themselves and loved ones, and for health care professionals who want an excellent understanding of this lifestyle to offer their clients and patients. We designed this program to give you the choice of taking both courses back to back or, if your time is limited, experience any one course at a time; however we strongly suggest that you take the Basics week first. If you do decide to take the enhancing second week first; there will be a nominal orientation fee.
