Intuitive Eating Workshop - Connecting To Your Heart To Receive Nourishment

In this workshop, you’ll be gently guided through yoga and meditation practices designed to deepen your connection to your heart centre and explore how this connection shapes your relationship with food.

Our relationship with food beings with our relationship with ourselves. Yet so many diets distance us from who we are and instead impose rigid rules that fail to provide deep nourishment. They also disconnect us from where our food comes from and the importance of our eating environment.

This workshop offers the space to let go of restrictive diet rules and return to your radiant self. You’ll learn how to soften into the heart centre, eat in a relaxed state and create food rituals to nurture your wellbeing and vitality.

This workshop is for you if:

· You feel called to soften into your heart centre to support self-care

· You’re curious to know how your emotions and environment impact nourishment

· You’re ready to learn how food is an offering to yourself and step into your fullness
