Workshops

As you will see below, I run a variety of classes, that are great introductions for people who have never heard about Functional Medicine or are new to healthy living. They help guide you and can compliment my one on one coaching sessions.

Body in Balance

This program is designed for women who find it challenging to loose weight and have tried all the usual diets without success. We meet fortnightly for 6 weeks, where I provide key guidance on how to lose weight the healthy way! We will cover topics such as:

Understand how hormones, stress, and lack of good sleep can affect your health.
Discuss habit breaking, emotional eating and why you have certain cravings.
Understand the importance of nutrition, phytonutrients, protein, good fats and fibre. Your biochemical needs.
How are you digesting and absorbing the nutrients in your food? Work out how to optimise this.
Taste new healthy alternatives to crowd out your old unhealthy foods.
Are you exercising too much/too little? Work out what right type of exercise is that suits you.
Work on other factors like what level of joy you have in your life, emotional fulfilment and community/supportive relationships. This will help to keep you healthy and thriving.

Gut Makeover

As Hippocrates said some 2000 years ago, “disease begins in the gut.” And guess what? He was right. For our gut manages the fuel and nutrients our bodies need to thrive.

It is the home of billions of bacteria that dictate the overall balance of our neurotransmitters, synthesise vitamins, aids in the digestion/absorption of nutrients, and trains our immune system.

If the gut is out of balance and not working optimally, then our organs cannot function as well as they should.

Who this workshop is for:

When it comes to your own gut, ask yourself the following questions:

Do you feel bloated or uncomfortable after eating certain foods?
Do you regularly suffer from candida or colds/viruses?
Do you have irregular bowel movements?
Do you have low energy or feel sleepy after eating?
Do you suffer from anxiety, depression, or low mood swings?
Do you have regular brain, fog, headaches, or migraines?

All of these symptoms and more can be caused by an unhealthy gut.

What to expect: Three 2 hour group sessions over 8 weeks.

Fill in a questionnaire to personalise your approach to tackling your gut health issues. Gain insight into the signs and symptoms of an unhealthy gut and what you can do to address the imbalance.

Cookery Workshops

Learning how to create delicious food at home, using new ingredients, can be challenging without some guidance. I currently run two courses:

Gluten Free Glorious - Where I demonstrate what flours you can use instead of normal wheat flours. Show you how to make seed crackers, almond sesame crackers and date chocolate brownies.
Fermentation focus - Where I show you how to make Sauerkraut, Kefir (milk based) and Kombucha.

I will send you away with the know how and passion for experimenting in the kitchen! For the Fermentation classes I will give you kefir grain and a SCOBY so that you can brew at home.
