FLOUR MORE THAN JUST SELF RAISING HOW TO USE OTHER TYPES OF FLOURS Nadja-Maurina Koerner Mission Nutrition Teff, coconut, Tsampa, Almond Flour and amaranth flour are types of alternative flours that offer a range of benefits. Teff flour is high in protein, iron, and fiber, making it a great addition to a healthy diet. Coconut flour is low-carb and gluten-free, making it a popular choice for those with dietary restrictions. Amaranth flour is also high in protein and is a good source of calcium and iron. Tsampa is known for its high fibre and protein content, making it a filling and nutritious addition to meals. It also has a low glycemic index, which means it helps regulate blood sugar levels. These and other flours can be used in a variety of dishes, from baked goods to savory meals. In this workshop we will have tasters of food that can be made using these flours and recipes you can use at home £5 deposit for workshop which will be refunded on attendance

The Innovator's Mindset What makes a person an innovator? The key differentiator is their mindset. Practicing certain skills can improve your innovative possibilities. Innovators build on their area of expertise; they are prepared. They often have a deep understanding of a field - but this does not confine their thinking - it provides a strong foundation to build, experiment, and learn. They start with a 'blank slate', observing, curious, questioning, digging deeper, broadening horizons, seeking diverse intersections, seeing the possibilities. Extreme paradigm shifts occur when diverse intersections occur serendipitously, resulting in discovery and value creation. The future is unpredictable; however, we can be prepared for a future unlike today by having an innovator's mindset. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

A fatigue-related condition doesn’t only impact the life of the person who's ill, it often changes things for you, their loved ones. Adjusting to this can be tough for you, and it can be difficult to know how to best help them.This webinar will increase your understanding of what life feels like for your loved one, and help you know how to support them on their recovery journey, while looking after yourself too. Why can this help me? The person you love and care for is still there, they just can’t live the life they used to be able to live - not for now, anyway. It’s very possible for them to achieve improvements and even full recovery, but it takes time, patience and a lot of adjustment. One of the most important things someone with extreme fatigue must do is reprioritise what they use their valuable energy on. They have to make sensible decisions around what they should do every single day, and that’s bound to impact you too. They might also experience emotional ups and downs that you’re not used to them displaying. Adjusting to this can be tough for those of you who are supporting them, as can knowing how you can best help them. This webinar will help you process how this is affecting your life too, and give you guidance around how to best support your loved one on their recovery journey, while looking after yourself too.
