I often thought it would have been fascinating to have experienced 1968 as a grown-up, and the 70s with all the new ideas and social responsibility born in those years. The peace movements to stop the Vietnam war, all wars, all bombs. The focus on human rights and gender equality, the ecological movement’s awakening. All looked so optimistic and grand. It’s a decade of a clear awakening of the human consciousness no doubt. That is what matters the most, that is how a change must occur, sooner or later.
Not until I read “The Blessed Unrest” did I understand that today we live in a time that is so much more awake, so much more aware of the social responsibility, the global responsibility. This book gave me a huge hope. I felt more joy than pain. It became more fun to act, than a must. This fabulous book by Paul Hawken compares times of social consciousness and he shows statistics that proves that never before, never in the history of humankind have so many done and has so much been done. On all levels, in all cultures there are individuals and groups that want a better world. So all skeptics, all of you that feel that “there is no point”, read it, see the video, and discover that there are all the points, all the reasons, to change what we want changed and have never been easier to change. To do and act is mind detoxing. It’s about health. Your health, and with it comes global health.

O•live Retreat offers Body·Mind·Soul health based on our own O• method, including a body, mind and "spiritual" detox in all areas of life. We do not leave health at home while going to work, we can't say we are healthy while destroying our bodies over the weekend. One is either healthy or not, and what that means can only be defined by each and one.
The key training for professionals (individuals and groups) is focused on enhanced productivity through self-inspiration and self-care. As a high equity manager in the finance sector put it - it's all about staying highly inspired. We couldn't agree more and we know how that biochemistry looks like.
Independent studies find that 96% of our guests become more healthy and stay healthy after 6 months, 82% stay healthy after a year. This is a better rate than anyone other treatment or training, as far as we know. Our teachings are based on modern science, and ancient evidence based techniques, and a lot of personal experience with trial and error, in the field of being a healthy human. and healing.
We start all training with a health assessment and by asking what healthy means to each one? How you define it is what counts, but one thing is similar for all no matter what you learnt - a natural, anti-inflammatory lifestyle is everything we need (without drugs) but many things our society finds "normal" cause inflammation and therefore diseases.

For those who are healthy and ready to take their own health out to the world, do more for others and the Earth or have a story to tell we offer Kindfullness projects, support, editing, writing, marketing, translation and publishing.(www.hardonkarma.com)
