Thanks for your feedback – I really like my motto too 
It has a such a basis in my own experience. I belive food plays a big role in our health, but it’s not the only factor and I think a lot of people on the food / health bandwagon miss this point. Snacking isn’t always a bad thing – it depends what you snack on! I always have some healthy snacky foods available because I am a bit of a grazer as well

Hi Alexis,
Great that you are interested in studying Naturopathy! It’s a fascinating field and one where you never stop learning. In my opinion the courses offered in Naturopathy in Australia are reasonably limited in their content – they do cover essential subjects – but they also leave out some of the more in-depth approaches to holistic healing and rely on teaching about bottles of supplements. That was my experience anyway. So if you are passionate about natural medicine, the course will give you a basis, but then it is up to you to continue researching and studying to broaden your knowledge on what really works. I did three years of study full time to obtain an Advanced Diploma of Naturopathy which is the qualification that allows you to practise and obtain insurance etc.The three years full time was a huge workload, and even though I only worked part-time, it was a massive undertaking. I don’t know how you could possibly to that course in two years while working full-time – actually I don’t think it is possible!
There are many fields that you can enter into as a naturopath – consulting, research, writing, product development, sales rep for nutrition company etc – so your career prospects are fairly broad – many go into self-employment and set up their own clinic – so the sky is the limit.
I wish you well with your studies!

Thanks Victoria, much appreciated Yes it is sad that these doctors who strive to do something better for their patients get attacked by those who don’t wanted the status quo upset. Thank goodness they persevere for the sakes of everyone who needs them. Thanks for passing on the name of this doctor, I’m sure many in the area will be interested to know.

I really like your motto “Healing is a journey, not just a raw food diet”
I have struggled with the food issue for some time. I make pretty good meal choices but the in between snacking is usually a result of keeping my “hands” busy.
