Wellness Peace University

The Program

Nine weeks. One small step at a time.

Each week of Wellness Peace University has the same simple shape: one short lesson, one shared plant-forward meal, and one small step to take before you meet again. Here's the whole path.

01

Plant-Forward, Not Plant-Pure

We start with plants and add. We don't put a finish line on the meat. We just keep showing how powerful, satisfying, and delicious a plant-first plate already is. The point is to feel the difference and keep the change.

02

Nine Weeks That Stick

One short lesson, one shared meal, one small step a week. The behavior-change rhythm works because it's the rhythm a healthy small group already knows.

03

A Program, Not a Product

Built to be hosted wherever people already gather: a church, a clinic, a teaching kitchen, a pharmacy, a community center, or a kitchen table. The kit will be free for our founding partners. The community is the engine.

The Curriculum (in draft)

The nine steps

  1. Step 01

    Taste the Power

    Before any theory, a week of plant-powered meals that prove the point. Full plates. Real flavor. The "I didn't even miss it" moment that changes everything else.

  2. Step 02

    The Why

    Now that you've felt it, the science behind why whole plants do something for the body that nothing else does. For energy. For blood sugar and blood pressure. For the long arc of a healthy life.

  3. Step 03

    The Pantry Reset

    Clean it out. Stock it up. The 12 staples every plant-forward kitchen runs on, and what to put back on the shelf in their place.

  4. Step 04

    Build the Plate

    The simple template: greens, beans, grains, fruit, plus. The math is easy. The plate is beautiful. The kids actually eat it.

  5. Step 05

    Master the Greens

    Leafy greens every day. The seven ways to cook kale, collards, spinach, and chard so the whole table asks for seconds.

  6. Step 06

    Beans, Grains & the Power Foods

    Cheap. Filling. High in fiber. The protein-and-fiber backbone of the longest-lived communities on earth. A week of meals built around them.

  7. Step 07

    Less Meat, More Life

    How to dial back animal foods without making it weird. At home. At restaurants. At the family holiday table. The grace and the simple scripts that keep the change human.

  8. Step 08

    Move, Rest, Renew

    Wellness is more than the plate. Daily movement, real sleep, mindful living, and stress that no longer runs the show. The four habits that compound the other eight.

  9. Step 09

    The Ripple

    Invite a friend. Lead a circle. Carry it back to your church, your clinic, or your community. The point of nine weeks together isn't graduation. It's multiplication.

What a session looks like

About an hour, around a table.

Welcome and check-in
How did last week's small step go? Wins, struggles, and what people cooked.
The lesson
A short video or talk on the week's step, in plain language.
The shared meal
Optional, but it's the heart of it: a plant-forward dish to taste together, with the recipe card to take home.
This week's small step
One concrete thing to try before the next session. Small enough to actually do.

Sessions run in person with a volunteer coordinator, or online with everyone cooking the same recipe at home. Want to host one? See who it's for.
