Masterclass: Unveiling the Impact of Stress on Metabolism and Hormonal Balance
Have you ever wondered why stress seems to play a role in weight gain and hormonal imbalances? Come along to our workshop to uncover the science behind it all!
Join us for an insightful workshop, where we explore the fascinating connection between stress and your body's metabolism. Learn how chronic stress can disrupt hormone balance, slow down metabolism, and even contribute to weight gain.
In this workshop, you'll learn:
•How stress hormones impact your metabolism and trigger weight gain
•The role of cortisol in fat storage and appetite regulation
•Ways stress-induced hormonal imbalances can affect your body composition
•Practical tips to manage stress, support hormonal balance, and maintain a healthy weight
Come along to a two-hour masterclass on how foods and lifestyle can make such a difference to your health and wellbeing. The Masterclass will be a lecture-style presentation with Kim Stirling, Naturopath - and there will also be a couple of recipes demonstrated... and tasted!

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
