Day 2 Winter Wellness Week Highlights

Dec 18

Highlights from today’s wellness sessions:

Michelle Pierce Hamilton, Tea Sommelier and Founder of BeTeas.com taught us how to power our morning with a peaceful vitality, made possible by exploring two special selections by a Certified Nutritionist & Tea Sommelier, followed by a facilitation on how to enjoy your tea as a morning cup of mindfulness.
Nutrition consultants Emiko Luici and Jean Naughton offered recommendations, and shared tips, and a recipe or two to staying grounded and balanced as a parent during the busy holiday season!
Chef Lizette Marx, a Natural Chef Instructor at Bauman College, taught us how to make a crowd-pleasing gluten free roulade (cake that can be rolled up) made with love from premier SOUL (seasonal, organic, unprocessed, and local) ingredients and with a delectable frosting that will satisfy your family sweet tooth and be the talk of your holiday potluck if you bring it to share with others.
Arts Educator, Christina Wright, shared data on the emotional toll that prejudice and injustice can have, eroding our sense of self-worth and triggering trauma, anxiety, depression and chronic stress. Through the screening of the short film The Way of Tea (2014) participants learned and discussed wellness practices for constructive resilience to discrimination.
