Recapturing Your Vitality 

Tuesday, October 19th 7-8:30pm

As women and mothers, we naturally care for others - sometimes at the expense of our own health and well-being. We have built careers, managed households, volunteered, raised families, chauffeured children, and cared for parents and/or partners. All of a sudden, we find ourselves suffering from digestive issues, poor sleep, cravings, stiffness, feeling depleted, and carrying around a few extra pounds. When diets don’t work, we feel like we failed and lose motivation. We want to recapture the vitality we used to have but there's so much confusing and conflicting information in the health world, we sometimes don’t know where to start. Learn what you can do to revive your energy and make healthier food and lifestyle choices. Join Suzy Wood, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach at True Wellness Within, for this informative workshop.

The Sugar Blues

Monday, November 6th 7-8:30pm

After eating sugar, we often feel energized and buzzed and then pretty soon, we feel disoriented and exhausted – a classic example of crash and burn. Sugar addiction is the most widespread, least managed health problem in America. People can experience dependence, cravings, and withdrawal. Sugar can influence mood swings, weight issues, diabetes among other health problems. In this interactive workshop, we’ll delve into this sweet temptation and what we can do about its grip on us.

REDUCE FOOD CRAVINGS WITHOUT DEPRIVING YOURSELF

Monday, October 2nd • 6:30-8:00pm • HGHS, L-216 • $30

Have you ever heard of anyone being addicted to chicken? Or broccoli? No, never. But, cookies, cakes, and salty snacks, 100%. Why do these foods have a grip on us like no one’s business, especially when we’re under stress? In this interactive session, we’re going to learn why we have cravings for all the wrong foods and how to make new habits to reduce those cravings. You’ll leave the class empowered, inspired, and with an action plan. 

 

DIVORCE DETOX: BUILDING A FUTURE AS A NEWLY SINGLE ADULT

Wednesday, October 11th • 6:30-8:00pm • HGHS, L-216 • $30

Divorce is the #2 most stressful event anyone can go through. People often feel grief for the loss of the relationship and sadness for a future that will be different than what they intended. This workshop is for newly single (or soon to be single) adults who want to build confidence, find balance, and reduce stress as they navigate their new future. 

HELP! I CAN’T GET MY TEEN/YOUNG ADULT TO EAT HEALTHY 

Monday, October 16th • 6:30-8:00pm • HGHS, L-216 • $30

When our kids were little, we as parents, had more control over what they ate. Once they became teens, the allure of junk food, fast food, and sugary drinks was often too much for them to resist. In their quest for independence, they make food choices that sometimes go against the best advice or encouragement from their parents. What can we do as parents to help our teens and young adults sail through this rite of passage to a place where they ultimately make healthier food and lifestyle choices?

WEIGHT LOSS WITHOUT DIETING

Monday, October 23rd • 6:30-8:00pm • HGHS, L-216 • $30

Sick of dieting? Tired of the restrictions, rules, and expensive meals and powders? They might work for a while... but then they don't. The weight returns leaving us feeling disheartened and frustrated. There's got to be a better way. Rather than being constrained, limited, and burdened with a list of "off-limit" foods, you'll learn how abundance is key in shedding pounds and inches. You'll discover how stress is linked to weight gain and learn which foods sustain and nourish you without compromising on taste. Wouldn't it be great to never feel deprived or say "I'm on a diet" again? 

 

 

 

Looking Under (and Beyond) the Label (3 sessions)

Thursdays: October 12th, 19th, and 26th. 10:30-11:30am

Does it matter that you can’t pronounce most of the ingredients listed in your meals or your kids’ snacks? What exactly are “natural” flavors? Why are there over 60 names for sugar? Confused about which cooking oils are good to use? You’re not alone. In this eye-opening course, we’ll dissect the food labels of our favorite products to learn what we’re really feeding ourselves and our family. We’ll uncover why we crave certain foods, learn about chemical ingredients and how they affect us, and dig deep into the quality of our food and the food industry. Come with an open mind and a willingness to participate.
