First Healthy Girls Initiative Events - Preparing for Healthy Holidays in December!

UPCOMING HEALTHY GIRLS INITIATIVE EVENTS:

Thursday, December 11th
6pm to 8pm
Venice Girl Scouts House
Holiday Hype Oasis for Moms & Daughters


Does the excitement of celebrating the holiday season sometimes stress you out? Find yourself overindulging in those holiday treats and struggling to take good care of yourself as you scramble to get gifts for loved ones and run around to different gatherings? You may need to escape the “holiday hype” by visiting our evening oasis for moms and daughters who want to enjoy a fun and healthy holiday season. We’ll learn to make delicious and nutritious, easy and affordable holidays treats; share gift ideas that support healthy lifestyles in our family and friends; practice a few stretching moves; and come up with plans for creating our own stress-free sanctuaries in our homes. Throughout the evening, two licensed massage therapists – Sandy Johnson of Women’s Wellness Massage and Terri Michelle of Prana Massage – will be giving free mini-massages to each mom and daughter. Superfood smoothies will be served.

This event is limited to twenty individuals – ten moms-and-daughter teams – so please register soon by contacting Julia Onnie-Hay of the Healthy Girls Initiative at (941) 921-5258 ex. 319 or juliao@gsgcf.org. The Healthy Girls Initiative is a project of Girl Scouts of Gulfcoast Florida, Inc. offering healthy lifestyle awareness programs to girls and their adult caregivers in South Sarasota County.

Thursday, December 18th
12pm to 1pm

Lunch & Learn for Moms: Holiday Hype


Are you a busy mom getting ready for the holidays? Take an hour for yourself! Manage the stress of the season – the “holiday hype” – by joining other moms who want to enjoy a fun and healthy holiday season. We’ll enjoy an organic salad with locally-grown ingredients; discuss setting sustainable New Year wellness goals; and craft a plan for our own stress-relief sanctuaries and strategies in our homes. Throughout the hour, two licensed massage therapists – Sandy Johnson of Women’s Wellness Massage and Terri Michelle of Prana Massage – will be giving free mini-massages to each mom.

This event is limited to ten moms, so please register soon by contacting Julia Onnie-Hay of the Healthy Girls Initiative at (941) 921-5258 ex. 319 or juliao@gsgcf.org.
