Discovering Healthy
Cooking & Eating
Transform Your Life through Food
We are going through a time when we must adapt to new lifestyles.
The current situation we are living worldwide is giving us the time and the opportunity to start making changes, not only in our lifestyle, but also within us. We believe that food is one of the main ways to begin this transformation through the comfort of our home.
During these uncertain times, we at Quintinha do Mar, knew we had to adapt and find solutions to keep providing our services to our guests, remotely. As we analysed new solutions, former guests from around the world contacted us wondering how they could implement what they learned during our retreats (from managing their emotions to healthy living and cooking) to their daily routines. That was when we decided to create Discovering Healthy Cooking & Eating, a tool that you will be able to use not just during these uncertain times, but throughout your life.
This online course is the perfect tool for anyone looking for a fresh start or for someone who just wants to further improve their lives after the retreats.
Discovering Healthy Cooking & Eating is based on four principles that will help you achieve a balanced life.
-
Short and consistent video tutorials of homemade plant-based recipes, with information about recommended portions and amounts.
-
Various exercises such as questionnaires, tests, and self-refection activities that will help you keep track of your journey and progress.
-
Additional information about home remedies and other related subjects that will help you
understand the importance of food in your life, as well as the impact it has on your mind, energy, emotions and feelings.
-
Introduction to various nutrition related themes, such as the qualities and properties of
the food and how it affects you.

Transform your life through food
We are one with the universe and in order to be aligned with it we need to find equilibrium. Food is one of the main ways to achieve balance, so we should take advantage of the fact that it is a basic human need and start taking care of our body by eating not only healthier, but correctly. If we start taking care of ourselves we will observe how this simple change makes a huge difference in our life. Not only our future selves will thank us for making that change, our families, friends and children will also benefit.
Be the example of change.
