    Dear Friends

    Happy October!

    Two great outdoor activities await us this month to enjoy the autumn colors: A walk around El Escorial and a guided bicycle tour though the green areas of Madrid.

    In addition: Our VP Team is working full speed ahead on our next Monthly Meeting, and Malin, a nutrition and public health specialist, will talk about the positive impact of micro habits in this week's workshop "The Blue Zones and our Health".

    MESSAGE FROM THE

    VICE PRESIDENT TEAM

    choc
    One word…chocolate! Do we even need to say more? O.K., how about two words…Chocolate Affair! Are you intrigued? Well, we still don’t think that describes the event exactly… how about this: “A Grand Chocolate Affair - A Journey Through the Senses.” That’s better! So, let us tell you more about the next monthly meeting…

    First, we will meet in Centro Riojano on Calle Serrano. You may have walked by this elegant building in the past but never knew what was behind those grand doors. Here is an opportunity to experience the grandeur of this century old building with its welcoming staircase, crystal chandeliers and glamorous décor. Once inside we will socialize according to COVID protocols in place, then get ready for a treat into the senses. They say we typically use our five senses for discovery but Helen Chocolate (our expert in all things cocoa) promises there are even more…

    During the meeting, you will journey through the processes of “bean to bar” and learn to distinguish the difference in types and quality. You will receive a variety of chocolate in your very own “tasting box” and Helen Chocolate has a few surprises in store for us as well.

    We hope you will join us in this exploratory event! Please save the date:

    Tuesday, 19 October @10:30 - 13:00
    Centro Riojano, Calle Serrano 25, 28001 Madrid

    RSVP openings will begin Wednesday, 6 October.

    Please forward any questions to monthlymeetings@incmadrid.org

    Your VP Team,
    Vicky, Tina and Hyacinth

    solen-feyissa-r6UY109iJBA-unsplash
    Friday, 8 October @10:00 am - 1:30 pm

    In this workshop we will explore what people in Sardinia, Greece, Costa Rica, Okinawa and the Seventh Day Adventists all have in common and how that impacts life and health positively. We will relate this to our own reality and learn what differences can be made by using micro-habits as a tool. The workshop is free of charge but we ask that you bring a small something to share, in one or more of the rainbow colors.
