Encinitas, home to CIHS, makes Forbes top 50 global destination list

CIHS is so grateful to call Encinitas our home for over 30 years! Forbes Advisor editors and writers compiled the list of 50 hot global destinations to be intentionally eclectic. “Destinations range from quick weekend getaway options, to trekking out to some of the most remote parts of the Earth,” editors said.

"California summons thoughts of a sun-swathed swell and palm-flecked streets thronged by cool cafes and beautiful boutiques—and that’s exactly what you’ll find in Encinitas, a surfer’s haven just about 25 miles north of San Diego. Encinitas is full of delicious dining spots, and some of the most sought-after tacos in town."

CIHS launches collaboration with TheCIINDE© The Canadian Institute of Integrative Nursing Development & Education Ltd.

CIHS and TheCIINDE© are so elegantly aligned in our missions and share in the vision of the WHOLE being- mind, body, and spirit. Both institutions seamlessly integrate eastern and western approaches to healthcare, education, and spirituality: promoting students, faculty, and staff as self-care agents and coaches. We share a collective goal to act as role models in the community for assisting others in achieving optimal health and well-being, while preventing illness and disease. TheCIINDE© is an innovative organization dedicated to improving whole health and well-being for both nurses and their clients:
"Our vision is to facilitate and advocate for the advancement of holism and healing in both nurses and nursing practice. We believe that nurses—especially those with advanced skills in holistic nursing and nurse coaching—can be key influencers in preventing disease, promoting optimal health and well-being, and in guiding others in bringing and sustaining positive change in their lives.
It is our mission to promote and advocate for a holistic care approach that integrates eastern and western philosophies beginning first with the health and well-being of the nurse."
