Upcoming Events...
20/02/09 10:17 Filed in: Events
Two events are coming soon...
Wednesday, 25th February, 7:00pm:
A Talk and Meditation on Astrology
With Nick Hughes, our resident astrologer. Nick’s talks are always very popular, so booking is advised, though we’ll usually try to squeeze last minute people in. £7
Tuesday, 3rd March, 7:00pm:
Women’s Health and Acupuncture
Come and learn a new way of looking at your body’s most fundamental cycle!
Women’s bodies are the scene of a beautiful interplay of hormones that create the menstrual cycle. Based on observations of nature, Chinese Medicine offers a simple yet infinitely subtle way of looking at this cycle and how it relates to other areas of our health.
Conny Duxbury, MBAcC, lecturer at the London College of Traditional Acupuncture, will take you through the eye-opening Chinese view of the menstrual cycle and related conditions. She will discuss about how patterns of disharmony relating to the menstrual cycle can affect us on different levels – physical, energetic, mental, and emotional. She will also look at particular conditions – irregular periods, PMS, polycystic ovaries, menopause, and explain how acupuncture can help. £7
And don’t forget there’s also an NLP practice group on the last Thursday of every month. More information here...

Healthy Skin - The Herbal Way
29/01/09 11:49 Filed in: Events
Looking good makes people feel good. So looking after yourself and your skin makes perfect sense.

Nourishing and nurturing yourself brings immense rewards of confidence, vitality, energy and good health, of looking and feeling good – inside and out.
Medical herbalist Kristine De Block MNIMH will be discussing how herbal medicine can help you have healthy skin. Herbs can be used to stimulate blood circulation, boost the body's ability to eliminate wastes and absorb nutrients. They are also invaluable for their mood-lifting and strengthening qualities which help alleviate the effects of stress on the skin.
Join us on Tuesday 17th February at 7 pm for a talk on the benefits of using herbal medicine for healthy skin. At the end of the talk you will be presented with a goody bag with some lovely Lemon Balm products and you will receive a 10% discount on beauty products.
