Calmer_Farmer Poster.jpg

Active Farmers and Murrumbidgee Landcare are excited about their upcoming roadshow in the Riverina: “Calmer Farmer, showcasing the power of Nutrition and Mindfulness”.
If you would like to learn more about nutrition and mindfulness, this workshop is for you - it will be interactive, educational and fun!
The roadshow will travel to four small communities within the Riverina (program below) and encompass a variety of stress relief techniques led by Mindfulness Specialist, Narelle Hunter, and healthy eating education led by food coach, Judy Davie.
As a Wellbeing Practitioner, Dru Yoga and Mindful Meditation Teacher, Narelle Hunter will focus on mindfulness involving stress relief, relaxation and sleep improvement techniques. “I try to teach simple techniques that can be implemented in day to day busy schedules, assisting with low energy levels, physical tension, poor memory and the anxiety that can build due to a stressful lifestyle”
As a food coach and author, Judy Davie has been sharing her passion for healthy eating through her book, “The Greengrocers Diet”, weekly newsletter, articles, recipes and short videos for almost two decades. “My vision is to help people improve eating habits” Judy said, “and my mission is to inform, inspire and involve people to learn that good healthy food can taste great” and not only that “that life is better when they eat well!” she added. Judy will focus on an interactive and educational simulation about healthy eating.
