Holistic Living Group

The Holistic Living Group works as a sub-group within the National Forum for Health and Wellbeing and focuses its efforts on promoting a broader public  understanding of holistic principles.

To this end, it hosts a variety of workshops, courses and conferences throughout the year and helps many individuals to improve their wellbeing – both physical and mental – through the adoption of healthier lifestyles.

In this section, we present a series of downloadable documents that have been presented at recent events, together with other news and helpful information.

A gallery of images from the Holistic Living Group’s 2014 annual general meeting can be seen here.
