Self-Care Working Group

This will be a paid event ($20) to implement a consulting service in a group setting. Outstanding contributions from attendees will be appreciated with a free pass to a subsequent meeting. Practitioners, too. Topics will include lifestyle, nutrition, supplements, diet, sleep, quantified-self technology, self-empowerment and any topic from any of my past Dialog Dinners hosted by Joni Sare, or blogs from <a>www.Project Wellbeing.com.</a>

Three dates per month: the second Monday, the third Sunday and/or the fourth Thursday.  Pick one that is most convenient, or attend all three.  The Sunday is for longer time and easier transportation.  I hope this is flexible enough that at least one date will work for you. If none of these work, please let me know.

This is intended to be a working group, where progress over time is part of the process.

To ensure a safe environment, all participants will be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement that binds them against discussing any other person's health issues and meeting comments.

There is no requirement for implementation.  You can sit and listen for informational purposes only, if that is what you wish.

If you do not know me and would like a general introduction, watch “Nutrients for Better Mental Performance” on the Google TechTalk Channel on YouTube.  Or just type “Steve Fowkes” at the YouTube prompt and select something else.

Primal Movement Session

This is a weekly session on the fundamentals of Natural Movement. Each session will include warm-up, conditioning, focus skill and games. Come learn, play and share your wisdom with us. 

Today's Focus: 

Ground Play, Partner work and Balance skills

“We are most nearly ourselves when we achieve the seriousness of a child at play.”

Hike @ Radnor Lake

This is the West parking lot off Granny White Pike. We'll hike the Ganier Ridge and S. Cove trails.

Special Protocol Weekly Meeting

Are you following an AIP, Whole30, Keto, or other restrictive program to address health concerns or goals? It's extremely beneficial to have a support network of other folks with your same needs, so let's get together for lunch and help each other out! Whole Foods Market offers $2 off the hot food and salad bars every Wednesday, so let's take advantage! The Town and Country center also has a charming little farmer's market going on from 10-2 as well so we can support some local vendors as well. 🙂 The Whole Foods dining section is rather tiny so if we need a large table, we may have to meet in the outdoor seating area.

Tree Play!

Hey Natural Movers, let's get out and do some ground climbing, then take it up into some new trees that would love to meet us!
