Managing Menopause with Nutrition, 4-6 week programme
Both the four and six week programmes are designed to provide employees with the tools to make simple changes that have a big impact on their energy, focus, concentration and performance for the long term.
Changing habits isn’t easy and research shows that support from professionals and peers leads to more successful long term change than trying to achieve the same without support.
There will inevitably be bumps along the road and the six week timeframe allows time for these bumps to happen while support is still in place. This means individuals can move through the bumps rather than feeling as if they’ve failed and going back to where they started.
The six weeks also allows more time for habits to become their new normal and stand up to challenges.
Session One: The Basics/Deficiencies
Session Two: Energy, Focus & Concentration
Session Three: The Effects of Stress
Session Four: Plant Based Diets
Session Five: Activity, Selfcare & Sleep (optional)
Session Six: Weight Management (optional)
Also, any of these can be booked as one off sessions.
Costs:
Members: £POA as bespoke
Non-members: £POA as bespoke
