The 3 Pillars of Wellbeing

What will you be able to learn on this weekend?

How to connect the 3 Pillars and apply them to practical situations:

• Healthy, simple and practical Natural food, inspired by Macrobiotics
• Activity, with structured physical exercise centred on working with gravity
• Spirituality, in a practical, non-religious and uncomplicated approach

In line with your personal goals, so that you can create the conditions to:

• Reach and maintain a state of Wellbeing and Balance: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually
• Set in motion a process of Rejuvenation and Anti-Ageing

Joaquim Reis

• I discovered NATURAL FOOD at the end of the 1970s. I worked with Unimave, a cooperative devoted to vegetarian Macrobiotics, and also with the IMP (Instituto Macrobiótico de Portugal) practically from its founding. I studied at the Community Health Foundation/Kushi Institute in London. I was a founding partner of Shogun, Produtos Alimentares, Lda., a pioneer in making popcorn cakes in Portugal, and I produced Tempeh for the macrobiotic/vegetarian community. I was a founding partner of the publisher UME, Um Mundo Ético. I currently also work as a tutor at the Escola Macrobiótica.

• I tried various SPORTS that eventually came together in high-intensity physical exercise, which I practised (I was a “pre-Olympic” weightlifter in the 1970s) and still practise today, having continued to study, observe and experiment through my own practice.

• My SPIRITUAL SEARCHING began in the 1970s, when I became involved in Hindu/Buddhist mysticism and in the practice of Raja Yoga and meditation.

• Academically, I hold a degree and a Master's in Mechanical Engineering and a Doctorate in Information Science and Technology.

• Professionally, I am a university lecturer and researcher.

Quinta Vale da Lama

• Located in the municipality of Lagos, but far from the sounds of the city, sheltered on the bank of the Ria de Alvor, where animals and Nature still thrive! A 42-hectare farm based on permaculture, sustainable and regenerative agriculture, eco-building, and conscious action for future generations!

FOR FAMILIES 😀

If one parent wants to take part in the workshop, the rest of the family can also stay at Quinta Vale da Lama, enjoying all the outdoor garden areas and the pool, joining the guided tour and tasting whichever vegetarian meals they like. The beach is also just "a step" away!
