I'll be in New York City the weekend of July 30-31, conducting classes at the Open Center, and also doing personalized thyroid coaching sessions Thursday July 29, 2010 and Sunday August 1, 2010. Here is information about how to sign up for classes, or schedule a coaching session.
Most people with thyroid disease (whether it's Hashimoto's, nodules, Graves'/hyperthyroidism, or thyroid cancer) end up with an underactive or surgically removed thyroid and hypothyroidism, and wind up experiencing fatigue, depression, weight gain, hormonal problems and many other symptoms.
I'll be conducting a full-day workshop at the Open Center in New York City on Saturday, July 31, 2010 from 10 am to 5 pm. The workshop is called "Living with Thyroid Disease: Creating Your Wellness Plan," and will focus on developing hands-on tools to help us live successfully despite an underactive or non-functional thyroid, and learn how to map out a plan for optimal wellness.
In the workshop, we'll focus on identifying the key things we can do to feel and live better with thyroid disease. The areas covered will include:
