Our Mission
The Inaugural Noble Gathering will be a night of food, connection, and celebration of the Noble Clay community. As well as, a night to consider noble things.
"But, the noble make noble plans and on noble things they stand" - Isaiah 32:8.
This event will be a night to consider the plans of Noble Clay and the vision God has called us to.
You will hear from speakers about the value coaching has on life and from Noble Clay members impacted by the Noble Clay coaching model. Hopefully, you will be inspired and clear on how you can partner with us as we fulfill our purpose and mission.
Our purpose is to invigorate people to be at peace and do good.
Our mission is to enhance human movement and connection.
The Problem: America's health is being destroyed!
* 74% of Americans are overweight or obese.
* 40% of children are overweight or obese.
* 52% are pre-diabetic or diabetic, completely reversible conditions!
*30% of teens are pre-diabetic (it was 11% in 2002)
*34% of young adults have mental, emotional, or behavioral disorders.
* 77% of our youth are ineligible to join the military due to poor health.
* Nearly one in two Americans is predicted to get cancer in their lifetime.
* 18% of teens have fatty liver disease.
And, it goes on!
The Solution:
* Eat whole foods, limiting sugars, seed oils, and unhealthy salts. (hard to do in America)
* Sleep 8-9 hours per night in a dark/cold room.
* Use herbs to enhance organ function and health.
* Get 30 min of direct sunlight a day
* Resistance train 2-3x a week + 2-3x a week of aerobic based work.
* Stop eating at 80% full.
* Drink 1/2 bodyweight in ounces of water every day.
* spend 15-30 min walking in nature (the woods) daily.
What is needed for every person to execute this solution?
- Education + Consistency + Accountability
What is the best way to ensure the solution is executed?
- Compassionate/Competent Coaches + Healthy Fitness Communities
Noble Clay was created to BE THIS SOLUTION!
