Healthy Living for Christian Teens

$45.00

Looking for a health course your teens will like? And will impact their lives today and in the future?

A Christian is a temple of the Holy Spirit. We belong to God. So, when it comes to caring for our bodies, we need a blueprint to understand how God created our bodies and how to keep them working optimally for the rest of our lives. God has given us free will to make personal health choices, but those decisions have consequences.

Healthy habits that start in the teen years can last a lifetime. More than a project-based course. Healthy Living for Christian Teens is a user’s manual. Find out how our bodies work and how to best care for them. Young people are encouraged to take personal responsibility for their health in a proactive way and honor God in the health decisions they make.

Description

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well (Psalm 139:13 & 14).

Healthy Living for Christian Teens is a comprehensive health courses with real-life application. Students explore what they need (nutrition, exercise, loving relationships, mental health, spiritual strength) and what brings harm (tobacco, illegal drugs, addictions, bullying, negative thoughts).

Healthy Living for Christian Teens is project-based so students can put into practice what they are learning. Teens evaluate their eating habits with a food diary/analysis: create a personal exercise plan that includes strength training, balance, stretching, and aerobic exercise; and build their own first aid kit.
