Healthy ageing through nutrition and lifestyle

We’re all aware that lifestyle choices make a real difference to the way we age. Two people of exactly the same chronological age can have very different biological ages, with one experiencing far better organ function, and quality of life, than the other.

There are now a great many ways that a person’s biological age can be both measured and managed, enabling many people to maintain and even improve their health as they age.

This full-day seminar provides an overview of current ideas about healthy ageing that are gaining scientific interest. We’ll be covering diet, lifestyle and nutritional supplements to consider for patients/clients who are interested in improving their healthspan as they age.

Have you ever experienced a client that just seemed resistant to change?

Katie Sheen did while working as a Nutritional Therapist. This was a catalyst for Katie to become interested in behaviour and eventually, an experienced mindfulness teacher. Katie is able to guide others to meaningfully support their clients, enabling them to overcome common psychological and behavioural barriers to the changes we recommend as part of nutritional protocols.

She is an accredited Breathworks ‘Mindfulness for Health’ Teacher, also offering courses in the Plum Village tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.

Fascinated by the mind-body interplay and drawing on 20 years of experience in cancer support, she began to weave mindfulness into nutritional protocols whilst Module Leader for Complex Case Analysis on the MSc Nutritional Therapy course at the University of Worcester
in 2011.
