Food Is Powerful: Taking Control of Your Health
Thursday September 10, 6-8 PM
How much control do we really have over our health? More than we may realize. The foods we choose every day can play a powerful role in preventing and even improving many chronic health conditions. In this class, we’ll explore the connection between food, lifestyle, and health—and discover how small, intentional changes can have a profound impact on how we feel and how we live. You’ll leave with a better understanding of the power on your plate and practical ways to put that power to work for your health.
The Gut Connection: Digestive Health, Appetite & Your Microbiome
Thursday September 17, 6-8 PM
Your gut is home to trillions of microorganisms that can influence far more than digestion. The health of your gut plays a key role in regulating inflammation and supporting overall health, with connections to immunity, metabolism, and even appetite. In this class, we’ll explore the fascinating world of the gut microbiome, what it needs to thrive, and how the foods we eat can help create a healthier gut environment. We’ll also uncover the natural signals that regulate hunger and fullness and discover practical ways to support healthy appetite control—without restrictive diets or relying on willpower.
Progress Over Perfection: Making Changes That Last
Thursday September 24, 6-8 PM
Knowing what to do is one thing—making it part of your life is another. In this class, we’ll explore how to create sustainable changes that fit into real life, rather than striving for perfection. We’ll talk about building habits that last, navigating social situations and travel, handling setbacks, and staying on track when life doesn’t go according to plan. Most importantly, we’ll explore how to let go of an all-or-nothing mindset and embrace progress over perfection, so healthy choices can become a sustainable and enjoyable way of life.
