“If I only would have stayed vegan…”
My daughter’s voice was weak, blaming herself for not staying to plant-based food while traveling. She had a tortilla española, (Spanish omelette) just before catching a bus. Her gut feeling was to not eat it, but as so often in our society her mind shut her gut down, telling her that they didn’t have time to look for other options. Now she called me from the youth hostel in Cordoba, after barely making it to her unfamiliar bed in the shared room, asking me for advice. She warned the taxi driver that she didn’t feel so good and that she had thrown up. He handed her a paper bag and with his soft Andalusian accent he told her not to worry. He saw that she needed to lay down. He cared more about her than his car.
My best advice when you travel is to stay away from animal sourced food, any, and all: eggs, meat, chicken, fish, dairy. I’m often told it’s so hard to find options, here are some ideas. Of course it is, if you think in the box. Get out of it, remember our O8 #7 – imagination is the first solution. There are two ways that will definitely save you time away from the loo, and save money too:
- Do picknicks: in parks, at stations, in your room, any corner of silence is good, but sit down to digest well.
- Don’t even look at the menu at the restaurant, but ask them what they can do for you. Tell them that you can’t eat meat of any source or you’ll die! Oh, and don’t forget to ask them for the price.
- Eat as much spices of all kinds that you can. Brew tea on them and put them in your water bottle. Chew them: clove, ginger, ginger, and other antiseptic spices. It will help you kill off intruders.

O•live Retreat demystifies health and in the process it stands clear that health is far from drugs or injections made from petrochemicals.
First we make sure you know yourself, your body and what healthy means to you. Then we continue to a good cleanse on all levels, Body·Mind·Soul.
With over 15 years in this business and, as Conde Nast Travel and some others put it "top-ranked" health retreat, we base our work on own O• method, derived from a multitude of methods, both old as Ayurveda and new as Orthomolecular Medicine. You'll get healthier in all areas of life (as we don't think one can leave health at home while going to work and we can't say we are healthy if we destroy our bodies over the weekend or vice versa). One is either healthy or not, and what that means can only be defined by each and one and if that is to indulge in the unhealthy stuff it's because it's really worth it for the only judge - you.
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)
