Plant Based Pantry

1/28/2018

PLANT BASED PANTRY

So what exactly DO you eat on a plant-based diet? Are we surviving on plants, seeds and nuts? Plant-Based doesn't mean the absolute absence of animal products but it does suggest to limit to 2 servings or less per week. Moreover, it is a diet comprised of whole-foods, plants, fruits, seeds, nuts, whole grains, and natural ingredients. Visit Cheryl Lecroy's great blog with a comprehensive list of a well-stocked Plant-Based Pantry.

We are SO excited to be offering small gatherings with Glenna Sears-Brinker, Pelvic and Women’s Health Physical Therapist, 3x Ovarian Cancer Survivor, and Wind River Alumni.

Glenna will help you UNDERSTAND OUR BODY after cancer. Glenna loves to say, "Your pelvis is my passion!"

These workshops will focus on cancer and how its treatments change many aspects of living, including sexual functions. Our initial series of workshops will be for women, so participants can freely ask questions about changes due to hormone and/or surgical changes to your bodies and emotions!

Join one of these up coming workshops!

February 3 (10am - 12om) at home residence in Asheville (email Wind River for directions) All women survivors welcome!
February 15th (4:30pm - 6pm) at SECU Cancer Center in Asheville
February 20 (6:30pm - 8pm) at Buddy Kemp Cancer Center in Charlotte, Triple Negative Breast Cancer survivors (all women survivors are welcome)
