Menopausal? No idea where to start? Let’s chat about diet!

Simple, but effective dietary changes can help prevent weight gain, improve mood and support hot flushes. As well as tackle that ever present brain fog. Stop googling and buying expensive supplements, and let’s chat strategies that are achievable and effective. Make eating well feel easy, not another chore.

‘Eat your week’ – on a budget

The ever increasing cost of food means many of us feel the pressure to buy cheaper, more convenient foods. The issue is – these often do not seem to be the best for our health. Learn how to eat well, and healthy, on a budget. Practice tips and recipes included.

Gut Bugs – Gut Microbiome – say what?

Our gut health is being talked about more and more. But do you actually know anything about it? And more importantly how it can help you? Think of your gut as a brick wall – you need bricks and mortar to build a strong foundation. Tune in to learn how you can look after your gut, and how you can heal many gut issues with just a few dietary tips.

Do you have a midlife tyre that you just cannot shift?

Weight gain around our middles can creep on over time, but it doesn’t have to be an inevitable part of ageing. We know carrying weight around our middle is really not great for our health. But tackling our weight can feel like a big mountain to climb. Let’s break it into small pieces together and meet your goals.

The Sugar Slump. Do you need a nap after lunch? It is most likely because of what you eat.

We have all experienced that post lunch slump, where we just have no energy or motivation to do anything. Let alone focus on work. News Flash – it doesn’t need to be like this! What you eat, and how much you eat will be affecting how you feel. Decrease your sugar intake and feel more productive after this session – winner!

Working out? Confused about what to eat? You don’t need to be.

More and more of us are doing some strength training. Whether that be at home, with a personal trainer or at a gym. But many of us are not getting the best from these workouts because we are not eating to help our bodies refuel and repair. Find out more here.

Neurodiversity in the Workplace incorporating Autism, ADHD and Dyslexia

This session provides an insight into neurodiversity and the conditions which sit beneath this umbrella term, along with the associated strengths and needs. We also discuss more broadly the role of reasonable adjustments in the workplace and the importance of inclusive workplace culture.

Finding fulfilment in the face of challenge

Introducing and developing the ‘choice point model’ touched upon in the previous ‘Stress and Anxiety’ session – a model that can help make the best choices for lifestyle, relationships and personal fulfilment. This is a practical session with Dr Cooley guiding you through the choice point model and how to integrate it into your thinking and actions.

Menopause: The What, the Why and the How to Thrive

This is a talk for men and women alike- even if you’re personally not going to go through the menopause, the women around you are!

The menopausal transition is a process which often spans several years and whilst it is a natural phenomenon it doesn’t mean that it can’t be really tricky to navigate. Tune in for an overview of what happens to hormones around the peri-menopause & menopause plus all important advice on lifestyle factors, HRT, supplements and herbal remedies as well as tips on how to support colleagues or loved ones as their bodies adapt to the ‘new normal’ of life during and after the menopause.

Supplements you can feel good about spending your money on

With so many supplement options to choose from, it’s becoming harder to be a discerning consumer. Are those expensive orange horse pills recommended by a friend of a friend actually life-changing? Do you really need to take 7 different supplements in the morning? With clever marketing, product labels may lure you into buying them with big promises, but where is your money best spent?

We will look at the reasons for supplementation, whether it is really necessary and some top picks of useful supplements to help with common issues such as anxiety, mood, sleep, joint pain, energy, cardiovascular health, hormone balance and blood sugar regulation.
