The weather is warming up! 🌞🌻

Come join our Women's Walking Group for a lovely walk and talk session.

We do 1 full lap around Laratinga Wetlands every Friday morning and welcome new people. We are less an exercise group and more a social group. All abilities welcome.

Meet in the carpark area, next to the coffee van at Laratinga Wetlands. Every Friday at 10am.

There are some potholes after all the rain so good, sturdy walking shoes are a must.

Hope to see you there!

Embrace the Change – Perimenopause & Menopause Workshop

Saturday 15th August
1pm
Mount Barker Community Centre

Perimenopause and menopause can bring unexpected changes—poor sleep, brain fog, mood swings, low energy, hot flushes and more. If you've ever wondered, "Is this normal?" or felt like your body is changing in ways you don't understand, you're not alone.

Join us for Embrace the Change, a welcoming and supportive workshop with Belinda Brown from Sheoak Wellness, where you'll gain a better understanding of what's happening in your body and discover practical strategies to help you feel your best.

Together we'll explore:
✨ What's happening hormonally during perimenopause and menopause
✨ Nutrition tips to support your energy, mood and wellbeing
✨ Stress management and nervous system regulation
✨ Gentle breathwork to help you feel calmer and more balanced
✨ Simple, realistic tools you can start using straight away

You'll leave with greater confidence, practical take-home strategies, and the reassurance that you're not navigating this stage of life alone.

Book your place today – spaces are limited!
