The workshop this Sunday 26th August in the Radisson Blu in Letterkenny will give you the tools and step by step instructions you need to begin your own healing journey at home. It will teach how to heal and seal your gut and repopulate with beneficial gut flora. Glenda will be using the GAPS Protocol (Gut and Psychology ‘or’ Physiology) as a basis for the workshop. The workshop will focus on two things:
- Clean up and heal the gut / digestive tract, so it stops being the major source of toxicity in the body and instead becomes the source of nourishment as it is supposed to be.
- To remove toxicity, already stored in various tissues of the body
This workshop is being run in conjunction with Gutsy World www.gutsyworld.ie which is a healthy lifestyle program. Gutsy World was founded by Glenda just over a year ago and has weekly check in and weigh in clinics in Letterkenny, Buncrana and Carndonagh.
