About the workshop:
The Human Terrain: Rethinking Health & Resilience
Why can two people encounter the same virus, stressor, environment, or challenge and respond completely differently? This presentation explores two different ways of thinking about health: Germ Theory, which focuses largely on the external agents that can contribute to disease, and Terrain Theory, which asks us to also consider the condition of the person encountering them. We'll explore how sleep, stress, nutrition, lifestyle, environment, recovery, immune function, and the body's internal systems can influence resilience and adaptation. Rather than asking which theory is "right," we'll look at what each perspective can teach us - and why understanding the host as well as the challenge may give us a broader picture of health.
