GROWN ON-SITE

Healing from the Soil

We cultivate our own microgreens in a private backyard sanctuary, ensuring every glass of juice and plate of salad is a direct connection to the earth. This is more than a retreat; it is a sanctuary of living foods, grown with intention and served with reverence.

A Philosophy Learned at Hippocrates Health Institute

The chef is an alumnus of the Hippocrates Health Institute, where he specialized in healing through living foods and sprout-based nutrition. This is the direct foundation for how meals are prepared here using home-grown microgreens rather than processed ingredients.

YOUR HOST & CHEF

Nathanael Mor

Nathanael Mor is a Portuguese-born healer and professional chef, raised in a holistic household and treated exclusively with natural medicine since birth. He attended his first retreat and received his Level 1 Reiki initiation at age 8, and has since trained in Qigong, yoga, meditation, visualization, and mediumship.

A graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Paris with a Grand Diplome in Pastry and Cuisine, he brings experience from Michelin-starred restaurants and top establishments in Tel Aviv and Lisbon. His turning point came as an alumnus of the Hippocrates Health Institute, where he specialized in healing illnesses through living foods and sprout-based nutrition — the foundation of the microgreens program at this venue.

We are all gods. Your body is a miracle, and the communication between your soul and your vehicle is the key to life.

Guest Experiences

From Our Guests

I've hosted retreats in a dozen venues. This is the first time the kitchen matched the intention of the work itself

Retreat Facilitator

Waking up to fresh-cut microgreens in our juice each morning set the tone before we even started the day's sessions.

Retreat Facilitator

Our group of 8 fit perfectly, and the food alone elevated the whole retreat. I didn't have to manage a single outside vendor
