Hand on heart; wouldn’t we all like to hang onto our youth for as long as possible? But it seems before you know it, you get to an age where grey hairs begin to appear, wrinkles and frown lines become increasingly obvious, aches and pains emerge where you've never had them before, weight becomes increasingly harder to shift, and ultimately when you look in the mirror, you feel as though you don’t recognise yourself at all.
Those of us who have reached this point in our lives understand the emotional rollercoaster this process often entails, where you feel as though you’re falling apart, and everything is changing before you’re ready – and to add insult to injury, we are continuously bombarded with miracle solutions from the latest product or technology, promising us youthful glowing skin or guaranteed weight loss. It can be a challenging time.
But it doesn't need to be. With the right tools, the process of ageing can be smooth and seamless. In this Holistic Workshop, our team of experts will share their knowledge, expertise and personal experience to help you transition through the natural rhythms of ageing gracefully. We’ll cover nutrition with ageing, and how to adapt your diet and supplementation needs during each phase, movements to keep your body supple, maintain good posture and alignment and keep your bones strong, how to keep your skin soft, supple and strong in the safest most natural way, and lastly how to manage the emotional rollercoaster that is ageing whilst maintaining mental wellness, balance and your sense of humour.
