Seasonal Eating for Energy & Vitality - Nutrition Talk

Meet the Haven’s new Nutritionist, Stephanie, and learn

how seasonal eating can support your energy, vitality and overall wellbeing.

After a long Scottish winter of grey skies, shorter days and slower rhythms, spring begins

to emerge quietly. Nature never rushes this transition — and neither should our bodies.

In this seasonal talk, Nutritional Therapist Stephanie Herron explores why spring can feel

like the true beginning of the year, and how aligning with this natural shift can support

greater energy, clarity and vitality.

Rather than focusing on restriction or rigid “detox” trends, this session takes a grounded,

naturopathic approach — looking at how gentle seasonal adjustments to our food and

lifestyle can help us move from winter’s inward energy into spring’s lighter, more

expansive rhythm.

Together we’ll explore:

• What winter represents in the body — and what shifts as we enter spring

• Why our modern lifestyles can disconnect us from natural rhythms

• Common symptoms that arise during seasonal transitions

• Whether spring is truly a good time for detoxification

• Insights from Traditional Chinese Medicine on the organs associated with spring

• Simple, nourishing tweaks to support energy and vitality this season

This is a warm, welcoming space designed to inspire and inform — not overwhelm. There

will be time at the end to bring your questions and queries.

What is included:

• A warming herbal tea

• A homemade seasonal snack

• A printed recipe card to recreate the snack at home

• A handout of key points discussed, including practical springtime tips to try

Tickets are priced by donation with proceeds going directly back into The Haven.
