Holistic Weight Management Workshop for Women

The team from Auckland Women's Centre

Are you struggling to keep a healthy weight? Being an unhealthy weight can increase our risk for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, high blood pressure and hormonal imbalance. It can also make us unhappy as there’s so much societal pressure to eat AND so much societal pressure to be slim.

So how can we sort this out in a holistic way – addressing the whole person including our physical, mental, emotional and social health and well being?

In this workshop, we’ll debunk some of the damaging information around weight and weight loss and we'll look at holistic practices for reducing and maintaining a healthy weight. We’ll learn about the part our genetics, sex, hormones, life-stage, macronutrient and micronutrient choices, lifestyle choices and support networks plays and how important our psychological toolbox is. (1/2 day)

Jane is a naturopath, medical herbalist, nutritionist and counsellor.
