TESTIMONIES FROM OUR STUDENTS
"Being an IMP student is like belonging to a family. It's discovering ourselves deeply and loving what's around us. It's buying a ticket to a trip to a new ME. Thank you for being the way you are!"
Cláudia Bandeira, Pharmacist
"Each course weekend is a unique and gratifying experience. I met fantastic people, had access to new knowledge which enabled me to see life, health and food in a new, clearer and more logical way! I feel I developed as a person and I owe it to IMP and to all the friends I met over these 2 years of course: Thank you!"
Lýdia Cadina, Nutricionist
"More important than the theoretical knowledge acquired is the impact of the course in our "great" Life! We understand each other more and better from inside out and from outside in! In an integral way. I am not fundamentalist and I am always open to more and more diversified knowledge and today I acknowledge (by experience) what I used to criticise (by ignorance)..."
José Castro, University Teacher
"Studying at IMP helped me know myself and the others better."
Ivone Apolinário, Consultant
"Doing the Course at IMP opened horizons for me which keep on expanding. These new tools improved not only my professional practice but also the quality of my daily life. My Heart fills with Gratitude when I think of IMP."
Paula Soveral, Therapist
"Macrobiotics is a language which takes us back to our ancestrality and to the realisation of the natural order implicit in each of us."
António Miranda, Engineer
"Para mi ha sido un año enriquecedor. Compartir y aprender experiencias, dudas y conociemientos con otras personas ha sido muy positivo. Este final de curso, sin duda, es el nuevo comienzo."
Egoitz Garro Hernaiz, Teacher
"Macrobiotics is a world which teaches us how to live in this world with the purpose of making it better. It starts with us... and it quickly spreads to the others through joy, humbleness, love and aromas."
Carmen Duarte, Sociologist
"Attending the IMP courses was deeply satiating for me: finally, full and useful answers made resonance with my intuition. Previously, science had left me stuffed with much information of doubtful usefulness. In my childhood, religion didn't speak my language. Macrobiotics managed to reconcile me with both. Today I am healthier and happier and I share this. I feel deeply grateful mainly towards the fantastic teachers, who inspired me so much."
Fátima Almeida, Biologist
"The path I travelled over these 3 years has been so revealing! Revealing through the contact with others, the friendship, the learning, the realisation of my inner potential."
Ana Vitória Alves, Marketing Executive
"Know myself, recognise myself, learning to know myself. Learning to listen to me, to listen to others, to listen to Nature. Growing, developing, searching, discovering, trying, believing... smiling! Thinking of IMP and of these 3 years is thinking of a great deal indeed."
Marta Clemente, Biochemistrist
"I am a fan of healthy cooking and a lover of tasty cuisine and I realised how perfectly conciliating they are. My consciousness about the impact of food on what we are became greater. I can't help remarking on the quality of all teachers. They are all different and they are all excellent. Their teachings have quality and they teach with love. A huge THANKS to everyone, including the administrative staff and helpers."
Rosário Magalhães, Astrologer
"Now that I got to the end of this stage, I wish to thank everyone who works daily towards making us students feel at home. Those in the frontline and those whom we don't even know, all of them together contribute to making the HOUSE grow and the courses improve. Very big THANKS to everyone."
Fernanda Santos, Administrativ
