Rude Health Week

The Healthy Living Centre in Athy is organising a Rude Health Week for the area, beginning Monday 15 February.

Kevin Connolly, owner of the Healthy Living Centre, hopes that by introducing people to the many ways they can improve their wellbeing during this week, it will help them to embrace a naturally healthier lifestyle.

The week follows on from the Rude Health Exhibition held each September, organised by the Irish Association of Health Stores (IAHS).

Irish Lightweight boxing champion Eric Donovan will open the week at a tea party and launch at lunchtime on the Monday.

Over the five days there will be a variety of healthy living items featured, including reflexology for babies, yoga for mums and kids, women's health consultations and spiritual healing sessions.

A draw for a hamper will take place on the concluding day, Friday, carried out by Jack Wall TD.

Further information and bookings for any of the events can be obtained by calling Kevin Connolly, 059 8641535 and 087 4183021.

Most of the activities are free, but space and time is limited, so booking is advised.
