Wellness Wednesday: Food as Medicine with Joe Llenos
–
January 17, 2024
Join South Peninsula Hospital's Health and Wellness for Wellness Wednesday on January 17th from 5:00-7:00pm at Kachemak Bay Campus, Homer.
In this workshop, Dr. Joe Llenos, a Board-certified family medicine doctor, will share how food can be used to maintain good health. Dr. Llenos will discuss the benefits of a healthy diet and the impact of food on our overall well-being. You will learn how to harness the power of nutrition to improve your health and vitality. The presentation is an excellent opportunity to gain insights into using food as medicine and how it intersects with nutrition and health.
Then, we'll flow into a gentle, Hatha-based yoga class led by Britt Huffman. This class focuses on traditional postures while incorporating mindful movements at a slower pace. Using our breath to complement each alignment-based posture will help bring awareness to where we are in each moment. Some poses may be held longer to help ease the nervous system while providing deep stretch. This class is great for all humans of all ages, those new to yoga and seasoned yogis looking to enrich their practice.
Britt is certified in Hatha yoga, Meditation, Yoga for the Special Child and is an Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor. You will find that her classes will blend together what she has learned into a unique experience. When she is not in yogi mode, Britt enjoys snowboarding, hiking, live music, dancing, gardening and will be welcoming her first child this spring!
We'll also have hot soup and delicious bread! This is a FREE event; everyone is welcome! Come for a part or stay for all!
