A Healthful Lunch
Next, we’ll join our registered dietitian and trained French chef – Lexie, for an interactive food demo where you’ll learn how to create a delicious, wholesome, nourishing lunch, followed by a chance to relax and socialize in good company while enjoying the fruits of your labor.
Mindful Walk in the Woods
Hannah, our qualified MBSR instructor, will conclude our morning with a forest bathing experience. During this guided stroll, you’ll be invited to slow down and connect with nature in a way that is both soothing and gently invigorating.
