Feeling tired all the time, or spending most of the day stressed out with a knot in our stomachs, is not healthy. Yet, here in the 21st century, this poor state of being has become, for many of us, the norm. It is something we live with. We may not be functioning very well and the spark in our life may be dim, but we plough on. In extreme cases, we may be so chronically fatigued that we cannot hold down a job, or be so stressed out that life seems like one long nightmare after another.
The good news is that this stress and fatigue syndrome can be cured. To do so, we need to gain a new understanding of ourselves: how our bodies make energy; how we respond to stress; the nature of our minds; how we have evolved to need certain chemicals or nutrients; and why others can throw everything out of balance.
Learn how to have a consistently high level of energy, emotional balance, a sharp mind and the ability to cope with stress by coming along to a Cooking for Health class on "Beating Stress and Fatigue".
We will look at the challenges of 21st century living and how to overcome the vicious circle of stress and fatigue. We will explore how the body turns food into energy and which nutrients are required for this process to work efficiently; and we will learn which foods contain these nutrients and how to cook with these foods and prepare delicious dishes designed to maximise our energy. Classes involve 2-3 hours of practical tuition as well as teaching of theory.
