Shadwell’s Community Wellness Day

Shadwell Great House‘s Community Wellness Day has been designed to celebrate wellness on the twin federation island of St. Kitts & Nevis, and to encourage all attendees to cultivate a greater awareness of their physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. This will be achieved through yoga, mindfulness, and relaxation activities, community acupuncture, wellness lectures, an organic smoothie demonstration workshop, and interactions with the various sellers, who have utilized local plants and more to craft their products.

The Community Wellness Day will take place on Saturday, September 14th, 2019, at Shadwell Great House. The event will commence at 11:00 am, ending at 6:00pm. Dr. Pereira of St. Kitts Counseling Services will lead a mindfulness and relaxation session from 12pm to 12:40pm.

The Community Wellness Day is a free event open to the public. Complimentary popcorn and ice tea will be on offer courtesy of Ital Creations. Food & drink will be available for purchase by the participating vendors. At the event, there will also be a raffle competition, which will see a number of prizes up for grabs.
