Time to empower my purpose...

What You Eat is

Who You Are

Nearly no ritual is as ever-present in our lives as preparing and sharing food.

None as ancient, intimate, sustaining and familiar as eating. What we put in our bodies builds us, and therefore determines who we are.

Table set with various colorful breakfast foods including smoothies, juice, oatmeal, toast, coffee, a burger with roasted potatoes, salad, and sweet treats, decorated with flowers and lime slices, against a green wall background.

Nutrition plays an essential role in our lives and this retreat will show you how simply and effectively it can positively affect yours.

By eating more consciously we do ourselves the service of rebuilding, reenergizing and refocusing our entire structure from our very core outward.

The solution to many of today’s problems

— deforestation, ocean depletion and acidification, biodiversity loss, obesity, cardiovascular & digestive tract diseases...

— is on our plates.

By making the effort to eat a little bit healthier, and more sustainably, we can all do our small part in helping to solve many of the world’s challenges we are currently facing.

Your retreat includes consciously curated and catered daily breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks, created by Liefs.
