We'll begin the day with a yoga class designed specifically to benefit your bones. Learn safe and supportive techniques for building strong bones with yoga.
We'll be cooking together in real time. You'll learn new delicious recipes and preparation techniques that will keep your food nutrient dense and bone protective.
We'll end the day by diving into the science of what your bones really need, which is more than just calcium, and give you the foundation to nourish your bones with confidence.
This retreat is for you if:
You want to protect your bones as you age and take your health into your own hands.
You're ready to learn how to move and eat for strong healthy bones and apply the concept of food as medicine in your own kitchen!
You want to use yoga to stimulate bone remodeling and reduce fracture risk ... and you want to make sure you're doing it safely.
You've been diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis, and you know there's more to it than just taking calcium.
You want to "eat better" but it's hard to know what to do and where to start!
You're ready for some inspiration on the yoga mat and in the kitchen, and you want to take the day to focus on YOU!
I LOVED your class so much! Virtual cooking with you is the best! I thought you did a great job at preparing us-- I loved having the ingredient list and your video to help me get ready– S.W.
