It’s crucial and the more that eat and cook healthy vegan environmentally friendly the faster we can save ourselves from pollution, global warming, pandemics and other catastrophes.

The first thing that comes to most peoples' mind when seeking to become healthy is to change their diets. It’s true that what we ingest will create our organs and whole body and the more we know about food and other things we put on and in our body the better.
From some 25 years of reading scientific studies on health and nutrition, it's overwhelmingly clear that a vegan diet is the best way, (even if it’s generating less money for the producer). Our own personal experience confirms the data. For the best results in all we do, including in our sports activities, we have to eat healthy vegan or as close to it as possible.
This came as a shock to us some thirty years ago as it might be for you now. That’s why we started offering healthy vegan cooking classes back then. Since those pioneering years and a few cookbooks along the way many restaurants, chefs, producers and other professionals have come to us to learn from us.
We add the knowledge of Ayurveda (holistic healing) and Orthomolecular Medicine (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc) to our classes and we consider the biome in and outside you. Needless to say we show you the best way to use as little time, electricity and water too.
“I would be surprised if any other Retreat offered food as consistently appealing – not just in taste but in all of the senses – food almost as good to look at and inhale, as it was to ingest.”
In one-on-one sessions we recommend specific actions you can take with you back home. We offer support and chat groups. You also get access to over 250 articles, 2 e-books and a Cookbook. All is included in the price.
Your belly is precious. Listen to it, it’s your best signal system. Dis-ease starts - and probably ends - with the Gut.
The Health Assessment will provide us with all the information we need to provide the food you need.
“It ALWAYS starts with the gut.
If you seek to read your body signals long before the manifestation of a health issue mind, body or soul, respect your gut feeling.”
All food is locally sourced from the farmers, non-refined and as much as we can control, organic.
Nutrition is very important, but it's not everything. Our program combines the best food and drinks, with specific yoga (stretching) in Vata time, specific Pranayamas (breathing technics), and specific spices and herbs, sometimes more, to maximize your detox. In the end of the week the results speak for themselves. We use Ayurveda, Orthomolecular Medicine (micro-nutrients) and basic biochemistry to figure it out.
In the Body Health Classes we go through the science of food. Questions like how much protein should we have, what fat is good, should we take supplements - are all answered with the latest science and a lot of evidence and common (non-profit) sense. All levels of knowledge are welcome.
