Learn the Foundations of the Anti-inflammatory Diet

Are you cleanse-curious? 
 

  • Do you want to lighten up?  
  • Clear some clutter?
  • Create space for mental clarity? 
  • Become more energized for summer ahead? 

You may consider a cleanse this spring!
 
Why?  This is the ideal season for our bodies to open the EMUNCTORIES (the organs of elimination) and release accumulated toxins.
Supporting our bodies with a cleansing foods diet is the most effective strategy for producing long-term positive health results. 
 
Join this workshop that will show you  how to bring this diet to your day to day living- while on a cleanse and beyond -in your optimal meal choices day to day.  
 
This is the third in a  series of  3 workshops HEALTH CHOICES FOR the NEW YEAR 2012 that Dr. Heidi Lescanec is offering  with the YMCA starting in January 2012.
 
They  can be taken individually, or as a  3 part sequence, once a month for Jan Feb and March- a great way to get motivation and inspiration to start 2012 with healthy tools to put your New Years Resolutions into practice!  

What you will get out of this:

  • informative health lecture,
  • a featured nutritious and delicious snack and demonstration prep in the fabulous kitchen,
  • recipe handouts and information sheets on nutritional ingredients and how- to at home!
