WHFI aims to bring the findings from research into the lives of women in ways that matter to women via the Astarte Project. As societies become more willing to hear women’s voices, we find that what is important to women has not always been the motivation for research and development in health, fitness and even beauty!
Women value their own tribal character – less aggressive and more nurturing than the men’s campfire – and find it useful as part of their conscious growth, development and healing processes. As it turns out, this is also an excellent model for supporting improved medical outcomes.
