The Holistic Series and The Certified Holistic Educator Course is an in depth look at the most successful healing therapies found world wide. The course, written and developed by Annette DiStefano, is the result of over two decades of working experience as an Herbalist, Iridologist, Reiki Master and Energetic/Chakra Work  Instructor.

You will be trained to have a fulfilling career in the Holistic field. The best part is there will always be support for you, during and after completing the course, invaluable guidance and direction as you begin your path to helping others.

PS. The most awesome part is knowing that some come for more knowledge to help their family, some want to change careers to help others, as the weeks go by, each student realizes how much they are helping themselves.
