We are to be welcoming back our friend, clinical nutritionist, consultant, and author of Eat Your Brain Happy, Stephanie J Moore on Wednesday 15th January 2025. Following her very successful recent menopause talk we are looking forward to learning more about the gut/brain access and how we can better nourish our brains through what we eat.

The modern world focuses us to encounter countless daily challenges that can disrupt our ability to have a calm, happy and resilient brain and body. As such we need to be more conscientious and proactive than ever in the way we choose to eat, live, sleep and connect to help prevent these disruptors to get the better of our mental and physical wellness.

Julia Kenyon, from Human Sense Health Coaching, will once again be in conversation with Stephanie and they will cover such topics as:

- what is the gut
- signs of an unhappy gut
- what is the gut microbiome
- why does gut health matter / how does gut health affect the rest of the body and brain
- diet and lifestyle for a healthier, happier gut

(Includes a welcome drink, R&C nibbles, and a goodie bag.)

Join us at Herb House with Tracey Howes for an exhilarating combination of timed exposure in a traditional sauna and cold plunge paired with functional breathwork and the latest scientific insights, set outdoors in the idyllic Bath Garden. The class focuses on using the breath to help regulate stress, decongest the nose, improve sleep, reduce anxiety, and support hormonal fluctuations as well as improving self-awareness of the body. Includes: tea or coffee on arrival, workshop and 2 hours use of the spa after the workshop.

Things to note: The list includes but is not limited to conditions that could be contraindicative to cold water exposure:

Cardio Vascular Disease Heart conditions including tachycardia (fast heart rate) Hypertension Diabetes Type 1 or 2 Raynaud's Active Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Abnormal high/low blood pressure Blood Clots Migraines Severe Anxiety / Panic Disorder Bipolar / Schizophrenia / PTSD

For female participants: You should not participate in cold water therapy if you think you may be or are pregnant. If the workshop is within three days of the start of your menstrual cycle, we recommend that you do not participate in activating breathwork or cold-water therapy.

Join our resident Forager Sammie Longhorn for seasonal foraging, Sammie is a yoga teacher, forager, and community herbalist. With a passion for reconnecting people with the incredible edible and medicinal properties of our wild and native plant life.

Arrive at Lime Wood for 11am and meet at Herb House to head into the forest for a one-hour foraging walk and head back to our glasshouse for refreshments and a Q&A with Sammie.

What better way to connect with nature than to be in it! A day of mindful time and peaceful escape spent wandering and exploring under the canopy of ancient trees in the wilds of the New Forest. With a guided forest immersion walk, movement, breathwork and sound healing sessions, downtime in the Herb House spa and restorative seasonal food with breakfast on arrival and lunch in Raw & Cured, this is the ultimate breath of fresh air.
