I am just starting to listen to David’s course however already his enthusiasm and passion for raw is most contagious. David, your brief introduction to reconnecting to our intuition and to the genius within has most certainly captivated my attention. The thought of being able to more deeply reconnect to the intelligence within by eating more raw food also has huge implications for teaching children. Imagine…they never have to lose their connection in the first place. ...
I am not very far into my course but am finding it amazing and so inspirational and motivational. I believe this is the "cutting edge" time for raw food revolution and am thrilled to be a part of it.
This course has catapulted me into a higher level of education! As I went through the information I realized how much there is to discover, learn and experience. David is completely David…passionate, intelligent, and phenomenal at presenting the information. I believe it was David who said “the more we learn about something the less we know about it”. This is so true. The course made me see how much I need to keep researching and being curious about the amazing foods and world around me. I...
The excitement and energy that is exhibited through out the course makes it truly a joy to watch and learn from. The simplification and ease of starting the program help you gain confidence in both trying it and coaching others to do the same. Thank you for sharing your life experiences with us.
I’ve always been a lover of life, health, nature and anything that drives the human force towards achievement of enlightenment, wholeness, betterment of human consciousness and breakthrough of stereotypes, old belief systems, ignorance and mental limitations.

His course was beyond what my mind could possibly imagined, as David not only shares his passion, wisdom and expertise in effortless ways, but also takes...

I am replying just to say, that I am really enjoying the course. I know so much about nutrition that i was really wondering what i would learn that was new.

It is not just the nutrition info, David's perspective is so beautiful and inspiring and he comes across so open, from such a real and genuine place, somehow different than the other videos i had see...

I am loving your course....thank you for walking your talk and for the love and passion you put in to your work. I appreciate that you recognize differences in people and that it’s not always about just being raw but rather it’s about healing and balance... thank you thank you thank you!!!
I am enjoying learning the tips of things that we can do to enhance ours and our client's lifestyles. I am trying some of the smoothies, and I am stocking up my pantry with some of the unique superfoods. It is fun to see your passion about gardening as it is a true joy and I am inspired to learn more about the wild foods. Keep up the good work and I hope to meet you in person and one of the Raw events.
Thank you David for being who you are and for your truth! You are an "Amazing Human Being!" You've opened up your heart and your home to share with us your incredible knowledge and I'm grateful every day to have this opportunity! My Husband Gary and I had the pleasure of meeting you briefly this past weekend at the Longevity Conference...we didn't get a chance to fully express our gratitude...not only for the rejuvenation we are experiencing with our own health because of this coarse your offeri...
I just feel so blessed to be exposed to this life changing information! Studying the Raw Nutrition course has been incredibly educational, while helping me to tap even further into my passion for raw food nutrition as well as herbalism — it's giving me the courage to know I can confidently bring the raw lifestyle message to others. The information you're sharing is life changing and I'm so excited about being able to use it (and embody it myself) to help others heal. Thank you for sharing it a...
I am not very far into my course but am finding it amazing and so inspirational and motivational. I believe this is the "cutting edge" time for raw food revolution and am thrilled to be a part of it. Hopefully, I will be able to use what I learn to help others. Keep up the good work.
I was not able to make the Conference but I did purchase the DVDs from the last one and will purchase this one too. When I moved to Guelph I started introducing people to raw at the farmers' market. I experienced such benefits it encouraged my husband and I to bring you to Guelph and no one was disappointed it was a spectacular event! Things happened and I opened a restaurant and life was DIFFERENT!
The deeper I get into this stuff, the more thankful and happy I am that I chose your program. I made the decision at the very beginning of December 2009 when there were just a few videos available. I watched the process of development carefully, and now when I look at the 70 lessons as a whole, I can say that it beats anything I could have imagined. Thank you for elevating me to a new level of nutrition! I also want to say thank you to Lars and Lisa for the clear and concise learning materials. ...
The Raw Foods Certification course has been such an incredible gift! It has helped me to have more confidence in speaking about raw food as well as encouraged me to really stick to my personal raw food journey giving me more and more tools to do so. I am so thankful for the work that everyone involved in the delivery of this course! Namaste, blessings, love, and light!
The Raw Food Certification course is really impacting what I do at work! I'm able to incorporate valuable nuggets of information into my practice. Working in a hospital setting is very difficult since I no longer believe in the "medical model" but I feel like I'm making a difference by introducing this information to people who otherwise would solely depend on doctors and pharmacy companies to make them well. Thanks you so much for all that you've brought into this world - you have no idea how...
I would like to thank David for this course and all the information he has put out over the years. It is all incredible and absolutely life-changing. There is not a single other individual who has transformed more lives in regards to nutrition and lifestyle and to now see it here in Calgary being taken to greater and farther heights, WOW! Thank you David and the BodyMind Community - You Are the Best Ever!
This course has been amazing. It has taken all the raw information out there and presented it in a easy to learn and teach format. I have been studying raw foods for 7 years and been all raw for a little over two and this course has me excited about the rawfood lifestyle all over again.
This Raw Nutrition Certification helped me to get a job at livingtreecommunity.com. I don't think the owner would have called me if I hadn't mentioned this course and my membership to the bestdayever.com. You see, I have been a cooked food chef for 20 years, so why would he think I was interested in living food? I think this showed him my commitment.
After I sat down and started the DW Certification Course - I had an overwhelming feeling of joy. I had received exactly what I always wanted - the best, the truest, and purest information on personal health out there that I can share with others. A few minutes into it - I put it on pause - thanked the divine and had the best feeling ever that this is IT! Thank you and Lars so very, very much! I am deeply grateful - this will be used with the best of intent always and forever.
The course gives some much need grounded information to the raw food movement. I enjoy that the education is online and is delivered in video format. To walk in the garden with him and have him explain what herbs do in the body, how they are grown is a gift. I thank David for taking the time to be filmed and I thank Lars for creating a space for the message and Lisa you also get special thanks for all the support you give to the project.
As a student of your Ultimate Raw Nutrition course, you must hear how thankful and warm hearted I feel towards what you guys are doing. It's not just the contents within the program that amplify my excitement; it's also the revolutionizing application of REAL and entertaining video presentations that magnify my ability to learn and to do so progressively. Here's to the groundbreaking evolution of education!
Your "Ultimate Raw Nutrition Certification" course is just what I wanted. As a raw foodist and a school teacher turned homeschooling mom, it has allowed me to be at home with my family while doing the course and it gave me incredible knowledge about super foods and raw live food to help my family's health. This is the stuff I am teaching my daughter and husband. Learning to live and teach exactly what it means to be raw in your course has enhanced my raw food lifestyle and can't wait to teach ot...
I just want to say a big thank you for all you give to the world. I am enrolled in your Ultimate Raw Nutrition Certification Course. I also feel more fired up each time I log onto my home study. I feel my confidence building to share this life-changing material. I am currently developing a natural weight release program that includes energy work, raw food and super food nutrition. I look forward to meeting you someday soon!

The way I look at my health and my dysfunctional relationship with food are things that I despaired of ever chan...

Welcome Message
Greetings! Welcome to my Raw Nutrition Certification Course!
This course contains a comprehensive look into the fields of research I am most passionate about! Raw foods, superfoods, superherbs, spring water, longevity, my personal lifestyle in multiple eco-systems, numerous angles on healthy eating, strategies for healing, health science, and The Best Day Ever!
Our goal with the Raw Nutrition Certification Course is to provide you an extraordinary health education while bringing you on location and/or into exotic environments via the approximately 200 online videos that comprise the course — all while you get a certified education through the BodyMind Institute!
Dive deep into an incredible body of health information — the leading edge! You will leave the course with numerous tools to create a super healthy lifestyle for yourself and others. This course is great for beginner and advanced nutrition students alike. It is also appropriate for those in the healing field including medical doctors, naturopaths, chiropractors, body workers, homeopaths, yoga teachers, personal trainers, etc.
Since I was 14, I have been studying how to study. I explored different modalities that were often outside the box of conventional education systems, until I found out the keys that made it easy for me to learn. After those breakthroughs, my focus shifted toward how to best educate others.
How to educate others has essentially been the underlying focus of my entire career.
When the BodyMind Institute and I began collaborating on this course, the goal was to bring everything I had ever learned about both health content and education into the course. Allowing you to take the course, enjoy it, keeping you simultaneously entertained and informed!
From the feedback I have received over the last few years, I believe the goal has been accomplished. On my recent tours, literally hundreds of graduates have personally told me they felt this course represents an innovation in both education and information.

Have The Best Day EVER!!!
David “Avocado” Wolfe
