Francisco Oliveira Bastos
Creative Director
Taking time to slow down and rest is a key ingredient for a balanced life with respect to physical and mental health. Conscious resting time is essential to filter and analise life experiences as they unfold so as to evolve as individuals in our relationship to ourselves, others and the planet.
José Filipe Rebelo Pinto
Conscious Entrepreneur
Digital media and social networks have the power to disconnect us from ourselves. They have taken increasing space in our lives and are responsible for stress, anxiety and insecurity. A conscious digital detox is essential to go against this trend and to allow us to fully connect to our true essence.
Diana Pires

Forest therapy has been a magical breath of fresh air and connection. Closing my eyes, listening, smelling and feeling the earth breathe brings me back home to my essence. If there is anything in this world that has the power to heal, it is nature.
