Our team will be sharing in a suite of information sessions - showcasing our services oriented to supporting gut health and healing from a wholistic perspective. This will encompass physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and community health.

Think:
* Gut health pieces of wisdom 🤓 (nutrition, cleansing, microbiome)
* Emotional health 🧠
* Movement 👣🏃🏻‍♂️
* Somatic body work 🤸🏾‍♂️✨
* Yoga and ‘Yowen’ (a blend between Yoga and Bowen Therapy) 🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏽‍♂️👐🏽

Tuning into your intuition can be challenging at times. We have a wealth of knowledge ready to harness for you, with the tools you can keep for a lifetime to support your gut health through times of stress, environmental factors and the like!

Walk away with new information, tools and easy-actionable steps to improve your gut health and overall health and wellbeing. 🤗

Some of the reasons why we love MAGNESIUM!

✨Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the body! It’s involved in hundreds of reactions related to your heart, nervous system, musculoskeletal system, hormones, mitochondria, blood sugar handling and more!

✨The highest amount of magnesium in the whole body is found in the heart.

✨Magnesium glycinate has calming properties that can help reduce anxiety, depression and insomnia.

✨Without enough magnesium, your body will have a hard time relaxing and you will not be able to properly absorb other nutrients.

✨Magnesium is the 4th most abundant mineral in the body and is involved in over 300 different reactions.

✨Do you have these magnesium rich foods in your diet? Magnesium rich foods include pumpkin seeds, almond, spinach, cashews, pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate, bananas and chia seeds.

✨Magnesium is the metal ion found at the centre of every chlorophyll molecule. It’s an essential element for photosynthesis.

✨Sleep plays a vital role in brain function, helps stabilize your mood, reduces the risk of disease, and plays a role in weight management. And it turns out that magnesium may help improve sleep too!

When was the last time you boosted your magnesium stores?
