The morning was delightful – after a session of relaxing yoga with Laura we ate our breakfast in the soft morning sunlight. Breakfast flowed into a session on our endocrine system…  

 

   

 

A walk into the woods to have an instruction on how to do a simple self massage and a destressing/energising breathing technique….


After the leisurely lunch, the afternoon was devoted to learning about natural cosmetics.

Demonstration of how to make your own deodrant was really fun!

The group had a lot of wisdom and knowledge to share about aromotherapy, natural first aid kits, home made toothpaste and much more!

Hatti shared about the Bach’s flower remedies and Keri showed the ingredients that make up some of her most popular natural products.

 

 

Nicky had brought along some vegan chocolate cup cakes and we finished the day with this celebration and some home made ginger champagne!

 

 

Congratulations and thanks go to Laura, Marcia, Carly and our volunteers Kirsten, Henrike and Juila for a great team effort!
