Lea WI reaches for the trees!

The Lea Women’s Institute reached new heights when adventuring through Wild Pines Park in Market Rasen. Not for the faint hearted, dizzy rascals balanced precariously and swung into action to scale trees and brave branches.

In complete contrast, Hannah Sylvester’s herbal medicinal walk through Lea Park absorbed the peaceful ambience under a flowering Linden Tree. Pointing to the vegetation, a mallow plant was nestled against burdock, nettle and prunella vulgaris.

The variety of activity available through the Women’s Institute is as diverse as a woodland landscape.

Coming up is the Wim Hof Experience, on Thursday 1st August at 7.30pm, Lea Village Hall, DN21 5JA. Wim Hof teaches you the power of the mind and all the benefits that come with it, through his patented breathing technique and various trials of the cold. It is believed to help with depression, anxiety, mood, mental focus and pain management.

Ladies! You will always be assured of a warm welcome from the Women’s Institute. Go along and see for yourself how much there is to learn and enjoy. For more information contact Jackie Summers at the.summers@btinternet.com.
