The Environmental Influences Lifestyle Programs begin in the Health Life Area. This life area is the foundation of health in all the eight other life areas. Environmental stimulus includes inner influences to health, physically, mentally and emotionally, and in the home, business or organization. Cultivating awareness of influences to health and well being is woven through all Inside Awareness core programs.

Here is the definition of environment in the Merriam -Webster Dictionary:
Descending from the Middle French preposition environ “around,” environment , in its most basic meaning, is “that which surrounds.” When preceded by the and unmodified, it usually refers to the natural world (“please don’t litter if you care about the environment”). In a less physical, more extended sense, it may signify the circumstances and conditions that make up everyday life (“He grew up in a loving environment.”) The word may also be applied in highly specialized ways, denoting, for example, “the position of a linguistic element” (“how g gets pronounced in Italian depends upon its phonetic environment”) or “a computer interface from which various tasks can be performed” (“the app works in varied environments“).
The founder of Inside Awareness has had the opportunity to work one on one with a range of complex health and well being experiences with students for three decades. These experinces have been with students who are seeking support in their interactive relationships, personal interpretations and function. The focued learning patterns have been in the following life experiences:

Inside Awareness Center’s expansion on the definition of the environment:
These focused opportunitites led to expansive growth through a dawning understanding that the environmental influences did not stop at the body and only include external stimulus. An obvious connection to an interplay of internal influences through the functioning systems became evident. She discovered there was an internal interplay between body functions. From a somatic perspective the internal environment influences are not separate from the external ones. The body’s oganisms respond to the internal and external stimuli simultaneously.
Consideration of the elusive inner and obvious outer stimulus to interactive responses in function is woven into all the learning programs regardless if the focus of attention is movement, communication or the surroundings.
