DISCOVER HOW YOU CAN HAVE AGENCY OVER YOUR MENTAL AND PHYSICAL WELLBEING.

When dopamine levels are low, you might experience decreased motivation, apathy, and difficulty concentrating. You may crave substances like sugar, nicotine, alcohol or caffeine, or you may want to engage in dopamine-boosting behaviours like shopping for stuff you don’t really need, or gambling. Ultimately however, these behaviours and substances leave us dopamine-depleted, and so the cycle starts again.

The good news is, there are ways to boost your dopamine levels in ways that support your wellbeing.

This evening’s session is all about supporting the natural production of dopamine through nutrition, movement and breath.

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is our 'off' switch.  It’s our major calming neurotransmitter and sufficient levels of GABA are critical for relaxation.  It also helps to improve memory and mood, relieves anxiety, and promotes sleep.

Low GABA can show up as an inability to focus or ADHD, low energy, panic attacks, and general or social anxiety disorders or phobias. It’s often what’s behind alcohol cravings too.

Lifestyle and nutrition can affect GABA, as can genetics and our hormones. In this workshop we’ll discuss some of these factors and what we can do to support our GABA levels.

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that’s involved in a lot more than mood. When we support the synthesis and release of serotonin, we also support:

• Appetite control

• Cravings for sugar and other refined carbs

• Addictive behaviours

• Anxiety

• Gut health

• Sleep

It really is a magical neurotransmitter, and it’s in short supply in our dopamine-chasing modern world.

This workshop looks at how we can support serotonin through nutrition, movement and breath.

Come and join me at a FREE Gut Recovery Information Session.

We'll talk about:

• How ageing affects the gut and the knock-on effects

• How our shifting hormones (both the ones we make and the ones that we might take e.g. HRT and OCP) can affect the gut

• How our mental health affects our gut, and vice versa

• How our patterns of behaviour can affect our gut health.

If you want to make changes - whether work- or relationship-related, or to support your health e.g. go to bed earlier, exercise more regularly, quit an addictive substance or behaviour - but you find yourself unable to be consistent; or perhaps you find yourself taking one step forwards and two steps back, then this session is for you.

This session looks at the energetics of addictive behaviours.

We will discuss how archetypes connect with our energy centres, and then how they can show up in self-damaging behaviour patterns. Examples of archetypes include the Wounded Child, the Saboteur, the Caregiver, the Rebel, and of course, the Addict.

Most importantly though, we will talk about how we can shift these damaging patterns of behaviour with self-compassion.

If you’re curious, then come along!

Understand yourself in new ways, with new levels of self-acceptance.

Do you sometimes struggle to make changes, or feel stuck in behaviours that you know aren’t doing you any favours?

These sessions offer insight into patterns of behaviour that hold us back, so you can then take action make life-changing shifts to support mental, physical and emotional health.

This workshop is aimed at women who are peri- and menopausal and beyond:

• Who are currently re-evaluating their relationship with alcohol; or

• Who have stopped drinking alcohol but may be struggling with cravings (including sugar cravings), low mood or energy, or a general sense of discomfort and unease

“Absolutely brilliant. Clear, concise and so helpful. Kind-hearted but utterly professional. It was, for me at any rate, inspiring and on point. I would change nothing. Welcoming, warm and beyond informative.” Helen, January 2021

A one-day retreat for women in their 40s and 50s.

• The theme of this retreat is how to have a positive menopause experience.

• We’ll be talking about nutrition and lifestyle and other factors so that you can feel strong and well.

• AND, we’ll be going deeper to identify – and gently support - any patterns of behaviour and limiting beliefs that may be holding you back.

• We will help you plan a blueprint for a positive menopause so that you flourish in midlife - and beyond.

This is a Masterclass for people who want to cut down on their sugar intake, or perhaps quit eating added sugar completely.

So many of us turn to sugar to comfort us, to ease cravings, to fill a gap.

And, although it’s obviously not as damaging as alcohol, the impact of sugar on our mental health, our cognitive function, our hormones, our guts, our joints and our muscles, our immune system, is not to be taken lightly.

At this Masterclass, you'll find out how to:

• Reduce sugar cravings

• Change damaging patterns of behaviour

• Implement lasting changes with self-compassion

• Support low mood, anxiety and insomnia

• Increase motivation and energy
