We are thrilled to be expanding our wellness programs at Whittemore and launching The Wellness Salon. Come join us to connect with fellow members of our community over coffee & tea, learn some insights on specific health topics from our nutritionist, and listen to guest speakers while they educate us on their field of practice. In addition to the Wellness Salon which will meet monthly on Saturday mornings, we will be offering special programs on a variety of healing methods. Our mission is to expand awareness to our community on health and healing modalities that are available to support our body, mind and spirit. Don’t miss this valuable opportunity to learn and grow with us!

June's Guest Speaker: Linda Brown-Kuhn, certified Forest Therapy Guide

Will share her belief that spending time in nature in a slow, relaxed way with an open heart and open senses can boost well-being in our bodies and minds. 

A long-time resident of Hunterdon County, NJ, Linda worked in Manhattan as a magazine writer and then in NJ as a freelance writer, specializing in health and environmental topics. She returned to college in 2014 to become a Registered Horticultural Therapist through Rutgers University. She has worked with Veterans at the Lyons and East Orange VA Medical Centers, teaching them about plants and gardening for their physical and mental health. She also works at the Center for Great Expectations in Somerset where women with young children are dealing with substance use issues.

She earned her certificate as a Forest Therapy Guide through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy in July 2022 and has led walks at the Ironbound Farm and Ciderhouse in Asbury.

Leslie will talk about talk the link between Gut and Mental Health

"I’m Leslie Weinman, functional nutritionist and clinical herbalist. I am very excited to be leading (coordinating) the Wellness Salon and helping to support our community with their health. In my practice I always look to find the root cause of any imbalance in order to give the body the nourishment it needs through diet, lifestyle and herbal medicine. The body will naturally heal itself when given the proper support. I look forward to meeting you!"
