Healthy Gut, Healthy Mind - Yoga & Nutrition Workshops

Yoga & Nutrition Workshop for females who are keen to develop healthy eating habits, ensure better weight management, raise awareness about food - hormone connection, and nourish their yoga practice.

At the beginning of my wellness journey, the endless sources of information I could reach overwhelmed me. My starting point was to learn the facts and myths about healthy eating first.  From experience, I know well how developing personalized healthy eating habits can be painful and confusing. That's why I created these yoga & nutrition days so that you can easily access professional information.

This event is an extension of the Wise Women Workshops, and open to all levels including beginners to yoga. My aim is to offer you the opportunity to make informed choices about healthy eating, the connection of nutrients with your hormones, and the supportive elements of yoga in both areas. During the day, Laura (see her bio below) and I provide opportunities for you and your loved ones to learn how to buy and consume food in the healthiest way possible, ask any questions you have in mind, and take your yoga practice to the next level.

This event is an incredibly valuable investment in understanding your and your loved ones' healthy nutritional needs, and making healthy changes in your kitchen, cupboards and fridge. In this event you will find some practical solutions on how to make simple changes to your daily routine in order to improve your digestive health & mental wellbeing, helping you to feel more balanced, focussed, energised & peaceful as you go about your busy life.

Spaces are limited with no exception. Make your booking today to avoid disappointment.
