Looking for health-minded people, including Wellness Practitioners who are looking to own a site and work from this amazing Gold Coast Hinterland property.

We are currently looking for health-minded people including Healthcare Practitioners who would like to own a piece of paradise to live and run weekly health-related events in their field. For example, a doctor who would like to run events around say hormonal issues in women, or a physiotherapist who would like to run physio, yoga, and Pilates instructors, or say an osteopath or nutritionist who would set up their clinic and work from the property.

Options include

  • Invest and buy your site, build a dome or a cabin live in it, and run your business from the health clinic within the village style retreat.
  • Invest and buy your site, build a dome or a cabin, and use it to rent out to other practitioners or retreat guests.
  • Invest and buy your site, build a dome or a cabin, and sit on it as an investment or future retirement / bug-out plan or holiday home.
  • Or you may be interested in investing in the retreat business itself and taking a percentage of the profit of the retreats function centre.
  • We are planning on building a multiple-room clinic and function centre for practitioners who are keen to get out of town and set up in a more natural environment.
  • Invest and become part of the management team organizing the health related functions and events and Air B&B rentals.

As many may know, Wellness Retreats are in high demand these days, so imagine having shares in one you live at and/or work from.

Each year, the Global Wellness Institute (GWI) commissions a comprehensive research project that results in the publication of a major report on a topic of relevance and importance to the field, putting the GWI at the forefront of pioneering global research.
The much-anticipated report, Build Well to Live Well, is the first research to size and analyze the global and regional wellness lifestyle real estate and communities market. The 150+ page report finds that real estate and communities that intentionally put people’s health at the center of design, creation, and redevelopment are the next frontier in residential real estate.

The global market is growing fast: over 6% a year from 2015-2022. Consumer demand for healthy homes is outstripping supply: in the U.S., for example, there are an astonishing 1.3 million potential buyers each year but with a pipeline of 335 projects – and that pipeline leads the world.
According to a MindBody article:  Not long ago, the world was turned upside down, forcing us all to restructure our lives and re-evaluate what it means to be “well.” And if there’s one thing we learned, it’s that the definition of wellness is changing. It can no longer be defined by physical fitness alone. In fact, over three-quarters of Australians think that being physically active helps their mental health.
As part of our annual Mindbody Wellness Index, one of the industry’s most comprehensive studies, we surveyed over 1,600 Australians to see how this shift will take shape in the coming year.

From immune health and intellectual wellness to mental and sexual wellness, to music, and pets, here’s what came up as number #1, Immune Health—across all dimensions of wellness—in 2022.

 

From the inside out increased interest in immune health.

It’s no surprise the global pandemic sparked an increased interest in immune health. One out of three global consumers reported they were more concerned about immune health than before the pandemic started. This trend will continue in 2024, as over half (52%) of the Australian population is focused on their health and wellness because they want to strengthen their immune system to withstand illness and disease. Nearly two-thirds (61%) of people report that they’re more focused on health and wellness because they want to live a long and healthy life.

One in five Australians has tried new services or treatments that support immune health, but another 43% are interested in trying those services moving forward—women being more interested than men. Read the full article here.

The environments we live in are highly influential on our behavior, mood, and our mental and physical well-being. So, it’s important that when we choose where we live, we do so with like-minded community and healthy aging for us all in mind.

With this in mind, we found the perfect property and are now looking for a Wellness Community to live, work from, and run Wellness Conferences. We are seeking Investors for the retreat, as well as Leaders who are interested in the Management Rights to the retreat function centre, the rental accommodation, and managing the retreat functions. All investors have access to around 25 acres of prime growing land to ensure as much food is produced on the property as possible. There will also be land available for animal agistment, such as a horse.

We are seeking wellness practitioners such as:
Integrative Medical Doctors
Osteopaths/Chiropractors
Nutritionists
Physiotherapists
Yoga/Pilates Teachers
Spiritual Workers
Naturopaths/Homeopaths
Sound Healers
Shaman’s/Light Workers
Remedial Therapists
Herbalists
