October 17, 2009 - Our Forum aims at allowing organizations and corporates with like-minded values to come together and share their LOHAS practices, learn from the efforts of others, create new synergies, and share up-to-date knowledge and resources. Moreover, they will have the chance to discuss the latest LOHAS trends with leading experts, and to introduce themselves to a highly professional audience, so as to make their voice heard in the LOHAS international scene.
Appeared in China in 2005, LOHAS as a “healthy, happy, organic, ecological and sustainable life-style” is gaining rapid recognition as a popular trend for achieving an improved quality of life. Sharing a similar philosophy with Chinese culture, particularly the concepts of healthy life, emotional well-being, and sustainability, LOHAS has been applied by Chinese people in various areas including daily life, investment preferences, production and consumption. LOHAS-inspired communities, towns, supermarkets, companies, websites, clubs, and magazines have all appeared in China.
Our forum is centered on LOHAS in its multiple dimensions. It will develop around different sessions each focused on a specific topic, such as eco-living and green building, renewable energy solutions, socially responsible investing, alternative healthcare, organic clothing and food, high-touch industry, personal development, and eco-tourism. In addition, participants will have the chance to listen to prominent LOHAS speakers, as well as to have a taste of living the LOHAS lifestyle! Experiences will include breathing meditation with the professional trainer Subodhi from Indian Puna Retreat Center; discover the secrets of longevity enclosed in China’s ancient traditions Wu yin and Wu xing shared by the international expert of longevity Mr. Zhang Mingliang; enjoy the taiji and yoga performances given by the famous yoga trainer Ms LinMin; and much much more!
The second international LOHAS forum is China’s first high-end professional forum that features “LOHAS development” and “LOHAS industry” as its theme. This forum will see the participation of LOHAS experts and leaders from mainland China, Taiwan, Japan, America and Europe. They will come to share the latest information on the LOHAS development in China and abroad, the future of the LOHAS sector, changes in the LOHAS market and consumer trends, therefore making the Forum the most authoritative conference about LOHAS in China.
