Whole Foods For The Whole Family with The Body Group

With chronic disease moving into more people’s lives, more people are taking back personal power and realising that we truly are what we eat.  The rise of the ancestral diet, or Paleo is rooted in research conducted early in the 21st century by Western A Price and has informed a generation of Functional Medicine Practitioners on the benefits of eating as our ancestors did. Whole food, where the food itself is the only ingredient.  For many adults, this transition away from processed foods is difficult, but even more confusing when new parents are asked to wean their baby not on rice and grains, but on eggs and organ meats.

Introduction to Emotional Freedom Technique with The Body Group

Combining talk therapy with tapping on energy points on the face and body, EFT is designed to clear any negative blockages – which are caused by negative emotions –  in the energy system. These negative blockages can often lead to limiting beliefs and behaviours and stop us from living our best lives. Resulting symptoms are either emotional and or physical and include feelings of anxiety, addiction, depression, lack of confidence and self-esteem. 

Falguni Mather, Counsellor and Accredited Advanced EFT Practitioner, will lead a workshop introducing you to EFT and how it can help you in various aspects of your life.

Discover how Chi Nei Tsang Can Help Improve Your Gut Health with The Body Group

Chi Nei Tsang is an abdominal detox massage that literally means “working the energy of the internal organs,”  and is a highly effective form of therapeutic bodywork.

Dani will discuss how Chi Nei Tsang gets to the root of pain and stress by releasing tension and blocked energy in the abdomen, while promoting greater energy flow to the entire body. In this way it promotes the healing of many conditions, including digestive problems, emotional blocks, postural problems and muscle tension. It is used to treat chronic pain in the back, neck and shoulders as well as problems related to the misalignment of the feet, legs and pelvis.

Matchali x AbsFocus at The Upper House

Head to The Lawn at the Upper House for a Matcha pre-workout booster followed by an uplifting 50min Pilates-inspired class that focuses on the abs, taught by lululemon Hong Kong Ambassador Janice Ng (@janybeans)

The routine is specially targeted to sculpt the core muscles, enhance core strength and build endurance. Intensity builds with dynamic routines set to upbeat music.

Matcha Benefits

Matcha can assist your workouts by increasing your endurance, metabolism, and reducing visceral fat (fat located in your abdominal area)

Drinking one serving of matcha can boost energy and endurance. For optimal effects it’s recommended that you drink a cup everyday, especially before your workout sessions. You will eventually see your muscle tone improve as well as an increase in your body’s ability to burn fat within just a couple of months.

Matcha naturally increases your body’s energy and heat production during cardio and resistance training. This tells your body to burn more calories and eventually lead to weight loss.

Location: The Upper House, The Lawn, L6, Pacific Place, 88 Queensway, Admiralty

Interactive Workshop: Discover Your Inner Rainbow with Chakras by Flora Chan

Chakras are an inward map that helps us understand ourselves better and can direct us toward wellness, greater awareness and living a more joyful and abundant life. 

Energy Reader/Healer Flora, Founder of FLO Jewellery, will take participants to the world of rainbow-colour Chakras to learn more about this ancient energy system and bring it to life in an engaging and practical way. 

Chakras are beginning to be recognized more and more in western medicine with research proving the connection between our energy and emotions to our physical health. When the energy in our chakras is imbalanced, it can manifest as mental, physical and emotional health issues. The energy centres basically affect and influence everything in our life! 

In this workshop, Flora will walk you through this journey to explore and experience how each Chakra affects us and how the Chakras are interconnected. Most importantly, she will share what we can do to help affect our Chakras positively and bring balance and inner peace to our life. The workshop is open to people of all levels of experience and will explore:

  • The seven major Chakras and what they represent for you in your life and relationships
  • The emotional and physical meaning behind each Chakra
  • Practical tips including food, essential oil, crystals, yoga poses and affirmations to balance each Chakra
  • Real-life stories of how Chakras are affecting each other and our daily life
  • Real-time open Chakra reading (if you do not mind sharing with other participants)

You’ll also benefit from:

  • A diagram with Chakra information and affirmations
  • Printable healing guides for the seven Chakras
  • A chance to win a FREE Chakra consultation by Flora
