DECEMBER: WINTER HEALTH & NUTRITION
A time of year for overindulging, share with your team the importance of health and good nutrition with a Glo Nutrition Workshop. Healthy Eating is not all about dieting, detoxing or depriving ourselves. It isn’t just about carbs and calories. It is an opportunity to give ourselves a bit of self-care three times a day… and goodness knows we need all the self-care we can get this time of year!
- Our Nutrition Workshop themes include:
- Bitesize basics
- Improving energy and concentration
- Supporting immunity
- Alcohol awareness
- Healthy heart
- Eat to sleep (insomnia) & much more
The session went really well and there was lots of positive feedback. Everyone who went really engaged with the mindfulness training and felt calm and relaxed afterwards.
