The Power of Habits – eat better and get fit with minimal effort



Do you struggle with fitting fitness into your life? Does the candy dish on your desk need regular refills, while the apple in your lunch bag has not seen the light of day? Have you ever gotten home from work and not remembered the 30 minute drive to get there? Habits can help make our lives run smoothly and free our brain to focus on important decisions. They can also silently derail our efforts to live a healthier life. Join Anna Daniele, Nutritionist and Certified Health Coach, for a fun and informative workshop on the power of habits and how to make healthy choices effortless.  We will explore what habits are, how they are developed and how to make them work for us to eat better, improve fitness and achieve better health with minimal effort.
