Every year health and wellness goals – such as eat better, manage stress and stay hydrated – compete for the top spots on New Year’s resolution lists. But even resolutions set with the best of intentions can be tricky to stick to, as studies show that approximately 80 percent fail by mid-February. Lakewood, Colorado-based Natural Grocers is ready to help its communities change that failing statistic through its Keto and Resolution Reset initiatives, kicking off in January.
With free, virtual classes, discounts, gifts and giveaways, the nation’s largest family-operated natural and organic grocery store is providing shoppers with the toolkit to stay on track all year.
Natural Grocers’ Nutritional Health Coaches (NHCs) present Keto Reset, a four-week class series based on Mark Sisson’s New York Times best-selling book, “The Keto Reset Diet.” The series will teach participants best practices for kick-starting their metabolism and experiencing other benefits the ketogenic diet supports, including healthy weight maintenance, enhanced mental clarity and focus, healthy energy levels and more.
In its third year, the Keto Reset two-part program is completely virtual and will take place from Jan. 20-Feb. 16. The program includes the following:
Embark on a successful keto journey
Weekly instructional classes designed to introduce customers to the keto diet and to guide and support them as they embark on their journey. Customers will learn about all things keto including blood sugar, meal planning, hacks and how to incorporate the diet into their lifestyles. Classes, led by NHC experts and followed by a Q&A session, will be held virtually on Natural Grocers YouTube channel the following Wednesdays at 7 p.m. CST.
- Jan. 20: Introducing the Metabolism Reset and Keto Diet;
- Jan. 27: Adapting to a Keto-Friendly Lifestyle;
- Feb. 3: Launching into Keto; and
- Feb. 10: Hacking Your Keto Journey.
Keto dieters need keto community
This is an interactive Keto Community Support Group hosted by local NHCs, to help fine-tune participants’ keto journeys and turn their newfound keto diet knowledge into a personalized action plan. Customers can sign up for a session at naturalgrocers.com/keto-reset.
