Dear Beautiful Community,

March is a bittersweet month for The Owl & The Moon, as we prepare to close our doors permanently at the end of the month.

While it’s not the ending I had hoped for, I’m so grateful for the laughter, connection, and memories we’ve shared.

Let’s make this final month a celebration - come join us for our last events and help us fill the space with joy and love one more time!

Words cannot express the warmth in my heart that I feel for everyone I have met on this journey.

With Gratitude,

Christina ♥️🙏

Holistic Nutrition is an unregulated industry, so it’s completely fair to wonder: HOW do you choose a practitioner, and WHO can you trust?

One important thing to look for is education, training, and professional accountability.

I’m registered with the Global Association for Integrative Nutrition (GAIN), and hold the Registered Holistic Nutrition Practitioner™ (RHNP™) advanced-standing designation.

This requires a minimum of 2000 hours of study through a GAIN-recognized program, including:
• Anatomy & Physiology
• Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Nutrition Sciences
• Comparative dietary systems
• Supplementation and nutritional symptomology
• Pathophysiology and understanding lab results
• Health assessments and behaviour change coaching
• Meal planning and lifestyle modification strategies
• Environmental health
• Macronutrients, micronutrients, and healthy diets
• Life-cycle nutrition, microbiome health, detoxification, and body system support

Education doesn’t make someone perfect, but it does show commitment to evidence-informed practice, ethical standards, and ongoing learning.

As a GAIN-registered practitioner, I’m required to follow their code of ethics and practice within a defined professional scope.

If you’re ever unsure about working with a practitioner — ask about their training. A good one will always be happy to share.

🔥 Awaken Your Inner Goddess 🔥
Thursday, March 5th 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

By request, we have rescheduled this workshop to accommodate those who weren’t able to attend in February.

A special evening at The Owl & The Moon celebrating the many faces of the feminine.

Join us for a candlelit workshop exploring goddess archetypes from myth and history — from Aphrodite and Freyja to Quan Yin and Brigid — and how each one reflects a facet of our own inner world.

This workshop blends:
- short storytelling + mythology
- oracle card pulls
- journaling prompts
- reflection & guided inquiry
- connection with other women

Together we will explore:
• the archetypes we’re drawn to
• the energies we’ve outgrown
• the qualities we’re reclaiming this year
