International wellness event the Healing Summit has announced its theme and speakers for the 2020 conference, taking place from the 18 to 19 May 2020.
An annual event since 2014, the summit is an initiative of the Healing Hotels of the World, and brings together like-minded individuals who are drawn to collaborate, raise awareness and inspire change.
The two-day event will be held for the second year at the Pince Cliffs Resort in Albufeira, Portugal, following the success of last year’s summit which saw 138 people from 28 countries gather to learn, connect and share their perspectives.
Socially conscious speakers from the fields of investment, science, travel, healing modalities, and mission-oriented organisations join together with delegates to create a gathering of global influencers committed to doing good.
This year’s theme ‘The Power of Right Action’, aims to explore the age-old struggle between right and wrong, and the challenge of determining what are the most appropriate actions of the moment.
“Society has been struggling with the conundrum of how we know what is right and what is wrong forever,” said Healing Summit co-founder Anne Biging.
“Every day on this earth, we walk a razor’s edge between the two, and we have to wonder: Are we mindful enough? Are we connected to our true heart? Are we aware of the consequences of our thoughts and actions?
“The Healing Summit aims to go beyond your typical business summit, and to bring people together to ‘cross-pollinate’ with like-minded people, to ask the tough questions, and to be inspired, uplifted, educated and reinvigorated.”
The event organisers have recently announced that Mexican design specialist and philanthropist Gina Diez Barroso will be speaking at the event, as well as the economist, author and innovative speaker, Dr Kjell A.Nordström.
Diez Barroso and Nordström join other speakers from the wellness industry including Marina Efraimoglou, founder of Euphoria Retreat, Diana Stobo, founder of The Retreat in Costa Rica, architect Robert D.Henry and Belgin Aksoy, the founder of Global Wellness Day.
“Each year, the summit empowers all who join us to act as ‘healing agents’, enabling us to embark upon self-care and care for others – and for the planet,” said Elisabeth Ixmeier, co-founder of the Healing Summit.
“Through the talks, workshops and interaction between all who attend, the event emphasises and illustrates that healing begins as an individual pursuit, which then naturally expands to include those people around us in our lives, in our community and in our world.”
