What to expect: please arrive 5—10 minutes early to pick up your lunch, and tuck in. We’re aiming to start talks promptly at 12.30pm so that everyone can get back to work on time.
Buy a bowl, and enjoy a free bowl on your next in-store order. This week, lunch is carefully designed by Bamboo Bowls - born from a desire to make healthy, chef-crafted food accessible to everyone. A collaboration with top chefs from around the world to create healthy bowls inspired by different Asian cities based on organic, whole-food and plant-based ingredients. Base bowls at $10, and with protein at $15.
For freshness and turnaround, Bamboo Bowls requires lunch orders to be submitted by 12pm, Tuesday 1st November.
What’s the talk about:
The more we use our bones and stress them against gravity, the stronger they become! The human frame is designed to move constantly. Regular physical movement is paramount not only for heart health, but also for strong bones. Women, particularly, are at greater risk of osteopenia & osteoporosis after menopause. Learn more and join in the discussion on the importance of regular exercise, the types of exercises important for #bonehealth. James Figueira leads a strength & resistance express workout to get us energised for the afternoon ahead.
