Alma com Alma

Somos un grupo de almas dedicadas al movimiento regenerativo internacional y a la mejora permanente del entorno natural y la cooperación humana.

Alma com Alma es una Asociación de personas que sienten el llamado a vivir una vida que da más de lo que toma. Personas que se reúnen para entender cómo vivir una vida más equilibrada, eventualmente fuera de la red, en estrecho contacto con los Elementos de la Naturaleza, para la Naturaleza y desde la Naturaleza. Alma com Alma está anclada a una granja de retiro ecológico en Aljezur que acoge a quienes buscan un encuentro cercano con los elementos de la Naturaleza.

Basado en una tierra de 45 hectáreas, Alma com Alma es un laboratorio de Agroecología y enraizamiento humano. Investigamos, experimentamos y construimos conocimiento que eventualmente inspira y reeduca a nuestros asociados para una vida regenerativa para una Naturaleza próspera.

VISIÓN

Tenemos una visión de un Planeta que sostenga una coexistencia equilibrada entre todos los seres. Una existencia en la que los humanos viven en armonía con los elementos naturales y conectados a su fuente natural de felicidad. Una conexión basada en el amor, la comprensión, la abundancia y la simplicidad.

MISIÓN

Entendemos que la relación entre los Humanos y la Naturaleza está profundamente desequilibrada, pero hay maneras de salir.

A partir de esta visión, nuestra misión es desarrollar y compartir conocimiento que inspire y permita a las personas tener una vida regenerativa, próspera y significativa, que recupere el equilibrio individual y colectivo.

Creemos que este camino se basa en la comprensión de la totalidad y de las relaciones colectivo-individual y espiritual-material, en las que la autoconciencia personal, el conocimiento ancestral y las prácticas agroecológicas comunitarias están bien integradas.

Queremos lograr nuestros objetivos manteniendo un espacio que esté en cambio permanente, integrando la diversidad y generando la realidad en la que queremos vivir, un lugar que sirve de buen ejemplo e inspira a las personas.

VALORES

Inspirados en nuestra práctica de la Permacultura, nuestros valores resuenan y así:

Cuidamos del Planeta
Cuidamos de las Personas
Queremos compartir conocimiento


Si vibra con estas palabras y este llamado, y quieres contribuir a una experiencia enriquecedora, participa en nuestras rutinas diarias, entonces podríamos ser una buena pareja en esta geometría sagrada.

We live in a farm that has wild forest, agricultural land and a community of people focused on living closer to their natural source. We are reeducating ourselves to live a regenerative life. Everyday we learn something new out of our process of experimentation to make everything more simple.

In this process, we have several areas of teaching & learning on the job, in which our members can participate.

People should be expected to be treated with care, everyone has the potential to become Family.

Forestry, Food gardening and animal care.

We are located in a 45 hectare land with all five zones of a Permaculture Farm. We have food gardens to be nurtured, wild and productive forests to be managed under the permaculture guidelines and several farm animals to be cared for.

Community living

We are a permanent group of at least 10 people working and helping on the Association activities. Cooking, cleaning and general community living is a central experience for those that want to come for a longer period of time that involves staying at least one month. Everyone that comes to participate in the Association has the amazing opportunity to meet people from all over the world, enjoy the natural landscape of the farm and explore the world-class coast and beaches of Southwest Portugal.

Courses and Retreats.

We hold several courses and retreats, organised by ourselves or in partnership. Affiliates can help out in the organisation and management of these events or they can propose to create one for the association.

Natural Building and off-grid general maintenance.

We are totally off-grid, in terms of water and electricity. This means we are independent from any company supplying these basic commodities. All our constructions are natural buildings or involve the usage of ecological and sustainable materials. Affiliates can come to join in rehabilitation, construction or maintenance events, some of this in the form of formal courses or just in the course of the Association daily activity.

We are weekly organised by areas and tasks, so we all can flow with good speed and grace ;)
