Hopewood’s natural health philosophy

We’re about living healthy the natural way!

Hopewood provided its natural health and wellbeing guidance and support at our health retreat for 55 years. Thousands of guests benefited from learning to live a Hopewood lifestyle….and now you can too!

The Hopewood philosophy promotes vegetarianism, plenty of water and freshly prepared juices, food combining, regular exercise and relaxation. It also emphasises the power of fresh air and spending some time in our natural environment.

It’s an achievable and sustainable lifestyle, which helps people feel more energetic, reach and maintain a healthy weight, manage stress and get more out of life.

Hopewood’s philosophy

Our goal is to help you understand and maximise your unique, inner potential for good health and wellbeing….and this website will support you to achieve it!

The 21^st century western lifestyle – our modern diet, high stress levels, lack of exercise and abundance of man-made chemicals – has very real impacts on human health and wellbeing. Hopewood’s philosophy promotes natural healing and holistic health using natural foods and fresh juices to address deterioration in our health.

Hopewood agrees wholeheartedly with the old adage “you are what you eat”! We believe food is our medicine. Our abundant experience demonstrates that fresh natural food, in a predominantly ovo-lacto vegetarian diet, is the best way to achieve and maintain wellbeing.

Here, you can take the first step towards achieving sustainable health and wellbeing. We’ll provide you with regular tips, healthy recipes and useful information and guidance to help you achieve the Hopewood lifestyle.

It’s amazing how much better we feel when we eat good food, drink plenty of water, make time to relax, breath some fresh air and do some regular exercise!

Living a Hopewood lifestyle, according to the principles of natural health, can help to improve many conditions, including:
