A celebration of healthy living! NHA members from around the world experienced four incredible days of healthful living—educational events, fitness activities, delicious meals, and joyous camaraderie at the Regency Spa in Hallandale, Florida, July 19-23. Dynamic Speakers Conference highlights included inspiring health lectures on a variety of topics by Drs. Alec and Nejla Burton from Australia, Dr. Keki Sidhwa from Great Britain, Dr. Alan Goldhamer from California, Dr. T. Colin Campbell from New York, and Dr. Frank Sabatino, Jeff Novick, John Nowakowski, and Josh Steinhauser from Florida. Conference attendees also enjoyed attending the informal question-and-answer sessions with the speakers and loved sampling Chef John’s delicious recipes at his cooking class. Delicious Food Chef John Nowakowski coordinated a fantastic menu again this year. Delicious meals were enjoyed indoors and outdoors under tents with beautiful ocean breezes. Opportunities for Fun, Fitness and Friendship One of the big hits of the Conference was the free spa service. Attendees who stayed at the Regency Spa were pampered with either a free massage or facial during their stay. Attendees also participated in a variety of fitness activities including yoga, aquatics in the pool and ocean and morning walks along the beach and boardwalk. They also enjoyed music and dancing, browsing the book table and bidding on items at the Third Annual NHA Silent Auction. The Conference offered many opportunities to meet new friends and renew longtime friendships. Here are some comments from NHA members: I loved everything and had a wonderful time. I met the most interesting, friendly and nice people. The lectures were really wonderful and the food was fantastic. I loved everything being so informal. All the speakers were very informative. I liked the fact that there was only one lecture at a time so I did not have to pick one and miss the other. I loved every minute of the Conference and plan to go again next year—I hope at the Regency. |
