Meet Michele, Your course instructor 


Hi, I am Michele Chevalley Hedge, a nutritional medicine practitioner, wellbeing author, and former teacher.

Yes, I ‘get’ you! Being in the education sector is deeply rewarding, but as educators, we often nourish everyone except ourselves.

Twenty years ago, I began my second career in nutritional medicine, positive psychology, well-being, and the links with high performers skills. I love helping educators, school leadership teams and counsellors to create micro habits to improve their brain clarity, mental stamina, moods, communication, sleep, physical health and more.

I created The Science of Workplace Wellbeing for educators around the globe so that you thrive in both your professional and personal lives, which is going on to contribute to a positive school culture and influence student outcomes.

The presentation really has our staff talking about and considering what they eat. The focus was not only on staff wellbeing, but directly linked to student wellbeing and learning as well.
