SHIFT Nutrition

LIVESTREAM

Even at the best of times, it can be challenging to ‘eat right’

Are you someone who works hard at your fitness, mindfulness, nutrition, lifestyle and yet still have trouble with consistently balancing your food intake, have cravings, mood swings, energy bonks, caffeine dependency, can’t find anything good to eat in the fridge?

SHIFT Nutrition was developed from my work with clients one-on-one; clients who work hard at their fitness, mindfulness, lifestyle . . . and yet still have issues with food.

Together, let’s create a lifestyle shift!

Some excerpts from past participants:

“This was exactly what I needed. I’ve learned so much about my eating habits and feel so much better than a mere 3 weeks ago. I’m not craving anything. My mantra now is ‘would Sandy approve’!”

“I’ve managed to lose 7.6 lbs over the 3 weeks and my tummy is much happier because of the higher quality food I’ve been eating. My sleep has improved, and I feel great!”

“I really struggled with sugar (I have stashes all over my house) and my mood swings and energy crashes were epic. This program and Sandy’s guidance has cleaned up my cravings, I can’t believe it! By eating well and consistently through the day, I don’t feel deprived.”

This is not a ‘diet’ to lose weight.
Together, we will create a lifestyle shift

Join me for a 21 day focus which includes:
• Daily Accountability (sleep, food, movement, stress management)
• 7 Day Customized Menu Plan, including snacks (and you won’t be hungry!)
• detailed spreadsheet of your food choices, including macros (protein, carbs, fat), calories, fibre and sugar
• Food prep direction for 2 prep days per week.
• Over 50 easy recipes for foundational ‘dishes’ to carry you through

Yin/Restore Sundays

In-Studio with Sandy

Monthly Sunday, 3:00 – 4:30pm

Jan 15, Feb 12, Mar 12
Maximum 8

Combine the quiet yet powerful practice of Yin Yoga with the healing, relaxing practice of Restorative Yoga for a delicious, centering result.

Yin Yoga moves you carefully, safely into traditional Hatha postures with support for the joints, holding for time. We focus on releasing the muscles and connective tissues of the legs, hips, back, chest and shoulders. This cues your nervous system, digestive system, and hormonal system (esp. adrenals) to move toward homeostasis.

Restorative Yoga is also a quiet, slow practice moving into full support with great ease, using many props. All must bring their own props and we recommend 2 blankets, a pillow, yoga mat, yoga belt or other, yoga block, and an eye pillow. Bolsters are also useful if you have them!

This practice is especially beneficial for those with tight muscles and joints, or who are experiencing anxiety or fatigue, or who simply need to step away from the intensity of life.

Breathe & Meditate
Monthly LIVESTREAM Practice

Wednesday, June 16, 7:15 – 8:15pm
with Sandy

Pranayama – the yogic art of the breath – is wonderful, widely varied, can be cooling or heating, stimulating or calming, physical and spiritual, and a world to explore!

Re-discover your inner calm with simple yet profound breath work and meditations.

Meditation – the art of focus – which can help us get out of our busy minds and into the insular anchor of our true self. As Bernie Clark said ‘The mind and the breath are like 2 fishes swimming in the sea. When one is agitated, so is the other. And when one is calm, the other calms too. Anyone can meditate, and it is lovely and reassuring to do so together.

Now, more than ever, we need our practices to ground us, reminds us of our blessings, calm the heart and still the mind.
