natural pain relief for the
condition. Women’s Health
Physio and endometriosis
sufferer Heba Shaheed
suggests a number of
healthy tips for naturallymanaging pain associated with the condition, some of which will delight
yogis. She suggests starting the day with sun salutations to stretch the hips
and abdomen, practicing pranayama to relax the nervous system and
reduce pain, and eating a plant based diet, which is known for its
anti-inflammatory properties. See http://www.thepelvicexpert.com for more

Introducing Club W – the latest in
fitness and lifestyle innovation
Fitness industry leader Tony de Leede has launched an exciting new fitness
centre in southern Sydney’s Caringbah. The special centre for women only
has been specifically designed for women who crave community and
connection whilst immersing themselves in wellness, conveniently. But
wait for it – the studios are virtual, serving up group exercise classes
including yoga, pilates, dance, meditation and more. The facility offers
over 200 classes, with content delivered in five, 10, 20 and 30 minutes
across the club’s four studio rooms. There’s also a massage room and
consultation pods for some good old-fashioned face-to-face interaction.
The staff aren’t robots just yet, and with a big focus on connection, there
are hosts on site to point guests in the right direction. Leede says,
“I wanted to create somewhere I could imagine my mum or my
sister coming to get out of the house – a place that offers not
only movement, but also community.”
