Details

Tonight's featured Modality of The Month is being presented to us by Bernadette Bélanger, Nutritional health Consultant and representative of Juice Plus. Bernadette works individually with clients to help optimize the nutritional content of their daily regimen. One of her main focuses is on the quantity and quality of the fruits and vegetables they consume.

During our Green Gab segment we are not straying too far from our vegetables as we are going to discuss some issues surrounding bio-diesel. As this segment is meant to have a discussion portion, please do not hesitate to bring information, questions and related details to the meeting.

The following agenda is intended as a guide and a time line to the progression of our meeting. We endeavor to make every effort to respect the agenda, although the amount of attendees at the meeting may cause us to fall slightly off schedule, thank you for your understanding.

7:00 Meet, Munch and Mingle - Sign in, grab a name tag & help yourself to refreshments while you acquaint yourselves with other attendees. Paid annual members, don't wait in line come on in, sign the member sheet, and start munching and mingling.

7:15 Greetings & Business - ie: membership news, special guests, objectives etc...

7:25 30 second infomercials - All practitioners and businesses, will have the opportunity to introduce their modality or business, please keep your intro to 30 seconds only.

7:45 Modality of the Month - Getting your fruits and veggies with Bernadette Bélanger - her presentation will be followed by a few minutes alloted to questions.

8:10 Green Gab - Tonight's topic during Green Gab is bio-diesel and the oil crisis. Is bio-diesel an efficient solution to the gas crisis?, Will it create a new problem? Should food actually be used for fuel for vehicles rather than to feed the world's hungry? What are we going to do about our dependence on non-renewable fossil fuels? Attending members are more than welcome to voice their thoughts and opinions on this serious current issue.

8:40 Open networking

Please bring your name tag from the last meeting if you still have it.

I will again be providing some beverages and snacks for the meeting. We have access to a kitchen with cups as well as glasses for our use. Assistance in clearing up and the end would be greatly appreciated.

Cost for the meeting is $ 15.00 for businesses and practitioners $ 12.00 for Students or Entrepreneurs (an annual option membership is also available) Doctors, nurses and lay members of the community who are attending to learn and not promote their own interests are welcome free of charge.

Wishing you good heath and happiness and the time to enjoy them. Namaste

Please take a moment to RSVP your attendance and honor your commitment, we can all be better prepared for our meetings knowing how many colleagues and guests to expect. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

       Bernadette did a fabulous job presenting her modality of proper nourishment, and her particular favorites in getting loads of fruits and veggies. Great cross section of businesses and modalities, it was a great meeting, as we all continue to deepen our connections and relationships with each other. 
    •  Congratulations to Bernadette who did her presentation in English. It was a very well thought out and informative session. It shows that Bernadette has been researching this topic for a long time because her experience and knowledge shines through. 
    •  great. Bernadette gave a wonderful presentation - her products look very impressive 
    •  Good mix of people attending; old and new attendees. Really enjoyed Bernadette's talk on Juice Plus' benefits. Wonderful structure and flexibility to the meeting. 
    •  I respect the speaker for having the courage to speak...unfortunately there were many times that I didn't understand what she was saying.I am french and I would suggest that the speaker should be more fluent before getting the plateform such as this one. Other than that,it was good!
