“Permacultivate your life to better garden your health space”
PERMACULTURE training
DATE : From July 6 to 12, 2015 – From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Sunday, program ends after lunch)
Description of the course : Our tumultuous life often takes us away from the essential: loving ourselves in its broadest sense, eating healthily and exercising... all in joy... give a recipe for guaranteed success in life. During this training we will cultivate the whole by joyfully practicing the principles of nature. Permaculture, in its application, teaches us to copy or even draw inspiration from Nature while imitating it by composing an intelligent life plan ... everyone will be able to build their own plan with the toolbox and the support of two professionals who are accomplices in this art of living: Jacynthe and Bernard.
Who is Jacynthe René? You know me! Here's a sneak peek at the vegan, lactose-free, and gluten-free gourmet menu I'm offering: jambalaya, chili, okinawa, spreads, falafels and tahini sauce, energy balls, brownies, poppy seed bread, gourmet cookies, yellow, orange, and green juices, and more.
I also invite, during these 7 days, my friends to come and teach us:
- Francis Gendron will talk to us about passive solar greenhouses to build yourself
- the ancestral nursery will offer the cultivation of fruit trees according to our space
Who is Bernard Alonso?
A trainer and teacher at heart, Bernard Alonso has been applying the permaculture approach in his life since 1993. His farm in Rougemont, Quebec, was a beach of exceptional practices ( see details of his journey on his website ). In recent years, he has devoted his time to spreading Permaculture wherever he is invited: in Europe, Asia, Central America, Africa, and even Oceania.
The training courses provided by Bernard Alonso are oriented towards "Human Permaculture." He proposes to rediscover the creative function of the right hemisphere of our brain by stimulating it with simple exercises and games. Creativity is indeed essential to the conception of any effective and sustainable "design." The originality of Bernard's approach: he proposes to operate the change from the inside out, drawing inspiration from the laws of nature, dormant but very present in us. Indeed, the interior "design" of our life functions like a natural ecosystem that we can learn to imitate and master.
