Angela Wright of Align Nutrition I teach a class called ‘Detox for Beginners’ - it’s not an AA thing, but more of a forum for learning about all the toxins that we are exposed to from our food supply, personal care products, cleaning supplies, cooking methods, clothing, furniture, air, water, etc, etc, etc. As with anything that I teach, it’s not in an apocalyptic manner, but all about the education. The more you learn about something, the more often you can make a conscious decision to avoid or embrace that particular fact. It’s all about the baby steps - one change at a time. So anyways, the students in my class really wanted to get together on a regular basis to share their new findings - recipes, products, articles - with other people that are also looking to better their nutrition and lifestyle through these baby steps. The more I mentioned this idea, the more people outside the class wanted to attend.

So now it’s open to everyone and anyone that wants to get together, talk about holistic lifestyle changes they have made through small steps, and eat good food. Our first night is on June 28th, from 5:30pm ’till whenever, at Kinexions Holistic Health Studio (970 3rd Ave West O/S - two doors north of the Billy Bishop Museum). Come bearing a healthy potluck dish (with recipe - I’ll post them for everyone after); a plate, cup, and cutlery (so we don’t throw out paper or plastic); a lawn chair; any new products you’ve discovered, article, info etc. to share with the group; and $5 to cover incidentals. For more info, email me at ange@alignnutrition.com. Hope to see some new and old faces there!
