Food Literacy: Chef Bo and Ann

🍃 The choice of what we eat also effects surrounding environment whether seen from a soil, water or climate point of view. At present, it is undeniable that the current problem of rapid climate change is also caused by the inefficiency of food consumption and resource management. Bearing in mind that whatever we eat should further have positive impact on other people and less negative impact on the environment as much as possible, it is, therefore, very important to come up with the questions and together find sound solutions to those questions pertaining to food choice that has the least possible negative impact on surrounding people and environment.

🍃 การกินของเรายังกระทบกับสิ่งแวดล้อมรอบๆตัวเรา ไม่ว่าจะเป็นดิน น้ำ หรือ สภาพอากาศที่เปลี่ยนแปลงไปในปัจจุบันก็เกิดจาก การกินและการจัดการทรัพยากรอาหารอย่างไม่มีประสิทธิภาพ ดังนั้น เราควรกินให้เกิดผลกระทบที่ดีต่อคนรอบข้าง และสร้างผลกระทบด้านลบให้กับสิ่งแวดล้อมของเรา ให้น้อยที่สุด จึงเป็นสิ่งที่สําคัญมากที่จะได้มาตั้งคําถาม และร่วมค้นหาคําตอบไปด้วยกันว่าเราจะเลือกกินอย่างไรให้ส่งผลกระทบในด้านลบต่อผู้คนรอบข้าง และสิ่งแวดล้อมของเราให้น้อยที่สุด

Health

Our body, just like nature, is an ecosystem. To cultivate and nurture a healthy body, we cannot isolate and focus on any single parts, but we have to care for the body as a whole.

Through the practice of yoga, we work for the wellbeing of the mind and body. With physical, mental (mindfulness), philosophical study, and a firm commitment to the practice, we believe that the practice would support us to discover the wisdom of the body and mind. 

Our intention is to offer a space for the study and practice of yoga as a medicine for the mind and the body. We trust that the practice and its wisdom will stay with us beyond the mats, support us to care for our wellbeing, and allow us to live life on the path towards splendid freedom.

Clothing

What if the clothes we are wearing everyday could be as alive as we are now?

What if this shirt, or this dress, is more than just a piece of cloth, but a story that reflects traditional wisdom and the biodiversity of the place?

It might be hard to imagine, especially in the time of fast fashion and mass-produced goods. Yet there is so much we could learn from the traditional way of making clothes, the process which carries many ancient and natural wisdoms passed on from generations to generations. 

From cotton flowers to yarn, natural dyes from plants, hand woven thread by thread into a piece of fabric that is turned into a wearable apparel. By experiencing first-hand with mamas of the village how clothes are made in traditional ways, we are invited to observe and reflect on the value of time and the care put into the process, and how much we could gain from living in alignment with the cycle of nature.

Shelter

How does the space around us influence how we live our lives?
Can we reclaim our knowledge to make informed decisions of how to create the space we want to live in?

From the material used, the consideration of the natural environment and local climate, to the function of the space, a simple but well thought-through architectural design can inform how we live and interact with others and the natural world. We believe that a great design of the space can support both the inhabitants and the ecosystem of the place to thrive in harmony.

By visiting and learning about well-designed spaces that care for the community and the environment, we can have the direct experience of the significance it has on how we live, how the level of energy and natural resources we consume change, and how it also affects us energetically. Through this, we can be inspired and reflect upon what changes we can make in our own spaces and our own lives.

Food

Food is a big thing.

Have we given it the attention it deserves?

It’s not only about the taste, because everything we choose to eat has an effect both on ourselves and the environment. The environmental issues we are facing these days, be it about the soil, the water, or the changing weather, can be linked to inefficiency of the food system.

For us, good food has to be good in 3 different areas — good for the consumers, good for the producers and good for the environment. 

The understanding of where our food comes from plays a big role in the choices we make. Through field visits, tasting and direct experiences, we wish to bring together the food producers and consumers, to share and exchange questions and experiences, and ultimately bring us to have a better understanding of what is really on our plates. Through that, we can then make informed decisions to have a more positive impact from our consumptions.
