Lifestyle in Naturalmente

·Co-creation and Connection
One of Naturalmente principles is Co-creating a Life together,
and learning to live in Harmony and collaborating with each other, in communion
with Nature
· Evolution of consciousness – inspiration and encouragement
Our proposal is that everyone in Naturalmente is willing to consciously evolve,
and committed to transcend ego and the illusion of separation (maya),
into our natural essence, connected in Oneness with All,
and therefore, shifting from survival and competition, to collaborating with each other,
and contributing for a prosperous living, in harmonious connection with All
· Natural Healthy Living - Naturalmente, as a Healing Retreat Center,
promotes healthy, sustainable living habits, in harmony
with nature and nourishing to the Body, Mind and Soul.
So we nurture an environment free of addictive habits,
where we focus on not depending on anything external from us for our well-being and happiness...
and we try to find (and heal) the causes that led us to that dependency...
Therefore, for the purpose of Evolution of consciousness, one of our priorities is to bring awareness and healing to the causes of addictions, and overcome the pattern by revealing what’s the root cause underneath, acknowledging that, and embracing the needs behind, and work on them together
(we might realize an emotion or basic needs being suppressed and covered with the substituting addiction.
Co-creating a safe space for those emotions / needs to be acknowledged and expressed in a constructive way
is an essential step for healing
so in Naturalmente, we don’t use alcohol or recreational drugs,
and we ask you not to bring addictions/unhealthy habits to Naturalmente
we have a healing transition area, where smoking is accepted, (the proposal is to do in a meditation mode, completely aware, in silence and as a transition to heal its causes).
(of course, we can feel free to enjoy everything in Life, and we can
check if that really gives us happiness, and if we don’t get trapped in
any dependency or addiction...so, for that purpose, and as part of the
healing process, we have:...
The "Gremlin day", where it’s
possible to enjoy some of the gremlin cravings, on a specific day, fully appreciating the moment, without any guilt...
(of course, always respecting our guidelines... and respecting everyone...
And because it’s on a specific day, it’s not a habit or unconscious reaction anymore, but a conscious choice.
This is a start to bring awareness and will power to overcome the addictions, and heal their causes…
Healthy Revitalizing Meals
These are vegetarian - natural, healthy and revitalizing,
and prepared in a way that gives priority to keeping most life energy and
nutritional value
The products used in the common kitchen are vegan, free of gluten / dairy, sugar,
coffee, or fried/saturated fats.
(And you can trust that there are great delicious alternatives, if
you’re willing to try something new)...
All Naturalmente, including personal spaces, accepts only vegetarian.
Boost our immune system
Also, about Healthy Living, in Naturalmente we focus on Boosting our immune System, so we don’t feel threatened by any virus, and we treat any health issue in the most natural (and effective) way possible...
(you can check some tips in our booklet – “Boost our Immune System – Naturally”, in our site – multimedia folder)
· Constructive Communication - The context in
Naturalmente is open constructive communication,
based on Authenticity,
Respect, Honesty & Compassion,
where we
co-create a safe space for expressing our feelings and basic needs in a
constructive way.
Naturalmente
is dedicated to Evolution and
Connection. To serve these principles, everyone needs to be willing to
receive (and give) feedback, and participate in resolution circles,
emotional
healing processes, etc,
and willing to meditate before reacting to any feedback,
and therefore shifting from survival and reactivity into Being in Connection,
so
that we can help each other to evolve in harmony with All
Silent Areas – please
respect the silence in the Resident Areas in Naturalmente.
particularly in the resting/ nap periods) and also if someone chooses to be in silent / meditative mode.

and let’s make music together.)

Picking fruits/vegetables - In
Naturalmente there is the great possibility to pick fruits directly from the
trees.

· Responsible care -
In Naturalmente everyone collaborates in a Responsible

- Please leave the common areas as you would like to find them (or better)
(clean and tidy after using something,
