As we are experiencing political, social and environmental tipping points, we live in a world that is seemingly out of balance. Many people have begun to ask themselves deeper questions about how to navigate life’s rapid changes and where this renewed world is heading. The organizers of the HEALING SUMMIT 2022 are dedicating their 2-day conference in Portugal on September 3-4, 2022 entitled “The Healing of Everything” to ask deeper questions on how to create conditions that allow for positive change.
After a pandemic related break, the gathering, which is an initiative of the Healing Hotels of the World, will bring back together like-minded individuals who are drawn to collaborate, raise awareness and inspire change. Socially conscious speakers from the fields of investment, science, healing modalities, mission-oriented organizations, and travel join with delegates to create a gathering of global influencers committed to doing good.
With three stellar personalities in the field of health research, social sustainability and embodiment, the first speakers have now been announced. They will address specific aspects of holistic health and socially sustainable development:
Prof. Gerry Bodeker, a Harvard-trained public health researcher has taught medical science at Oxford University and Columbia University. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the World Health Organization Global Atlas on Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Having researched traditional holistic healing modalities and the body-mind connection for decades, his knowledge is needed in our world more than ever.

Since 1974, Molly Melching has lived and worked in Senegal where she founded the exemplary NGO, Tostan, whose mission is to empower African communities to bring about sustainable development with a special focus on girls and women. Her success is based on her respect for the people she works with, her openness to learn from them in the spirit of the traditional African proverb: "I am because you are." has been key to her work.

Gary Joplin is an international expert in somatic training and embodiment, as well as a professional choreographer. As a Gyrokinesis®, meditation and body mind awareness specialist, Gary conducts training courses and workshops in Europe, Israel, China and the United States. As a former dancer he knows every inch of our body and its relation to emotions. In his sessions he will use the body to integrate gained understandings and insights into ourselves and to bring what is inside of us to the surface. The conference will be interspersed with these easy to do and highly effective movement sessions.

“We are so honored to have Prof. Gerry Bodeker, Molly Melching and Gary Joplin as our first three confirmed speakers. When we know who we are as human beings, we can make informed choices for our personal and professional lives, allowing us to support ourselves and others. It is up to us to create conditions that allow for positive change”, says Anne Biging, Founder and CEO of Healing Hotels of the World and Co-Founder of the HEALING SUMMIT. “In this spirit, Prof. Gerry Bodeker and Gary Joplin will inspire us with their commitment to understanding holistic health and wellbeing. Molly Melching will share from her life-long dedication to sustainable development drawn from her work in African communities with her self-founded NGO Tostan.”
This year’s summit will include even more collaborative formats: plenaries as well as smaller workshops will be offered, where we will deeply explore the Healing of Everything: personal transformation, investment, economy, sustainability, social justice and equality, healing modalities, mission-oriented organizations, hospitality, and travel. The summit’s attendance will be limited to 130 people.
“With the HEALING SUMMIT we aim at offering participants something that will enrich their lives for the long-term: an inspiring, transformative experience that fosters a more holistic lifestyle and new opportunities.”, says Dr. Elisabeth Ixmeier, Co-Founder and COO of Healing Hotels of the World and Co-Founder of the HEALING SUMMIT. “We are looking forward to announcing more news in May and to meeting in-person in September.”

Registration for the Summit is open; the rate is €2,100.
Immediately preceding the HEALING SUMMIT, a one-day pre-conference event designed for Healing Hotel Members and carefully selected travel advisors will take place on September 2, 2022.
