My dearies. I have an evening workshop on WHY FATS and WHAT FATS and PHAT FATS (I think that should be the new working title, no?). It's coming up next Tuesday evening the 22nd, so next week. I'd love to have you come to the event! (Full event details by clicking here) So...
I AM DOING A GIVEAWAY.
Because I want you to come.
SHARE this post (handy dandy 'share' button at the bottom of the blog post) and your name will go in a draw next Monday morning for a chance to attend this talk next Tuesday night. I'll be giving away TWO tickets for this event, so that you can bring a friend if you like! Because friends let friends eat the good fats.
Contest closes at noon on Monday March 21st, 2016. Share away! And then fire me word via the facebooks or email at lukasymons@gmail.com to let me know you did just in case. (And let's talk fats too, shall we?) xx
THE DEETS:
In this current era of instant-information and seemingly contradicting information on what foods are good for you, which ones we should omit, it can sometimes be overwhelming trying to 'do the right thing'. In this one-hour presentation, followed by a Q&A, Holistic Nutritionist and local foodie Luka Symons will be helping you navigate through the information on Why Fats are Good, which ones to choose, which ones to omit from your diet and recommendations on how to include the good guys in your every day meal plan.
From heart health to immune health to hormonal balance and the all-important brain health, including healthy fats is a quintessential component to supporting our bodies for the work they do every day. In traditional cultures, fat was an essential daily component of the diet, and with good reason. We will look at saturated, unsaturated, cholesterol and heat tolerance. We'll look at which fats to use where in your cooking as well. As a bonus, I will demo how to make your very own creme fraiche at home, a full fat lactose-free dairy delight, sure to tempt your palate.
Cost is $20 per person, and seating is limited. In order to reserve your spot, please contact Renewal Homeopathy and Wellness at 403.202.8507.
I look forward to seeing you there!

Your invitation to a free talk!
Thursday April 16th, 10.30-11 am
I think it would be safe to say that in this day and age, there is a certain level of stress in everyone's lives. We are all stressed. Stressed about timelines, about our relationships with loved ones, our health, worried about making ends meet, anxious about our current work situation. The list could go on and on. Stress certainly affects many of our bodily functions.
In this FREE 30 minute presentation, Holistic Nutritionist Luka Symons will present ways that we can support our bodies through these stressful times, how stress can serve as a tool, and how through our food choices we can best support our bodies through the work ahead. The power of good food is always within our grasp.
Please contact Xerion Homeopathie at 403.202.8507 in order to reserve a spot, as seats are very limited! There will be a Q&A to follow.
