Daphne Javitch

I'm interested in Holistic lifestyle because I see the importance of looking at the whole body to have answers. I think that you can treat your body with healthy, simple and fresh food to get better. I feel connected with Daphne through her imaginary and her commitment to improving life in a simple way.

Sometimes I have the feeling that I need a break, I need a change, I need to go to live in a house in the countryside where I can have a more balanced and calm mind.
Maybe humans are not really built to live in the city, we need to be in contact with nature, we need to breathe fresh and clean air.
