Pause, Plate & Practice: Understanding Food for Energy & Balance
with Naiya Grec
Food impacts more than hunger — it shapes energy, mood, focus, and daily habits. This educational and interactive workshop will help you understand how to nourish your body with intention and clarity, without rigid rules or overwhelm.
You’ll learn the foundations of nutrition, including:
what protein, carbohydrates, and fats do in the body
why we need each of them
and where to find them in everyday foods
Through guided reflection and hands-on activities, you’ll apply this knowledge to your own life by building balanced meal and snack ideas using foods you already enjoy.
You’ll leave with:
a clear understanding of macronutrients and their role in energy and mood
simple frameworks for creating balanced meals and snacks
personalized food lists and ideas to take home
and a small, realistic grocery-list experiment to support your next week
This workshop is informative, practical, and empowering — designed to help you make intentional food choices that support your well-being in real life.
Join us to learn how to nourish your body with awareness, confidence, and balance.
