Salon Session: Healthy Eating? with Dr. Anneleen Six - 18 Feb.

Description

Superfoods, diets, food rules, nutrition apps. We have never known more about food, and never felt more confused about what to put on our plate. What does healthy eating really mean, and is it the same for everyone?

During this Salon session, Dr. Anneleen Six looks at food through two lenses: Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Drawing on her experience as both a physician and acupuncturist, she explores how what, when and how we eat shapes our energy, digestion and resilience. Why can the same meal suit one person and not another? What does Chinese medicine mean by warming and cooling foods? And how can you let your eating habits follow your own body and the seasons, rather than the latest trend?

An evening about food as a source of health. No dogmas or strict rules, but practical insights you can take straight to your own kitchen.

Food is also one of the central pillars of Leven in je element, the book Dr. Anneleen Six recently published with Anouk Lagae and ShaoMin Xue, with chapters on food as warmth or coolness, food as medicine and eating according to the five elements and the seasons, complete with recipes. (buy here)

Who is Dr. Anneleen Six

Dr. Anneleen Six is a rare bridge-builder between two medical worlds that are often kept apart. As both a practicing physician and a specialized medical acupuncturist, she has spent years exploring the same fundamental question: why do people become ill, and more importantly, what helps them stay healthy?

Driven by a deep fascination with the root causes of health and disease, Anneleen combines the diagnostic rigor of Western Medicine with the holistic wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her work focuses not only on treating symptoms, but on understanding the underlying patterns that shape physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.

Based in Hasselt, she works with patients of all ages and has pursued extensive training in both Europe and Asia, with a particular interest in the classical Chinese traditions of Yuan Qi and Jing Fang. Her approach integrates lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, stress, emotions and energy, always viewing the patient as a unique individual rather than a collection of symptoms.

Beyond her clinical practice, Anneleen is a sought-after speaker on integrative medicine, prevention and healthy ageing. She is also co-founder of Muchin Lifestyle Medicine and co-author of the book Leven in je Element, which explores how Eastern wisdom and Western science can work together to help people live healthier, more balanced lives.

Her philosophy is simple yet powerful: health is not merely the absence of disease, but the ability to live in harmony with your body's natural rhythms. By bringing together the best of East and West, she invites people to move beyond symptom management and towards a deeper understanding of vitality, resilience and wellbeing.

The Salon by Farmatuur

We all see it happening. Functional purchases are moving online. Fast, efficient, frictionless. So why would anyone still come to a physical store?

For something the online world can never truly offer. Experience. Connection. A moment that genuinely moves you.

Farmatuur was built as exactly that kind of place. Not a traditional store, but a world where everything is designed to resonate. Where scent, music, materials and conversation come together. Where you do not simply buy something, but step into something.

At our conversation bar, no sales pitches emerge, but real exchanges. About health. About rituals. About small breakthroughs in everyday life.

At the heart of that experience lies The Salon. An intimate space inspired by the salons of the Enlightenment, where people once gathered to exchange ideas and perspectives. Today, we bring that spirit back in a contemporary way. We invite people who genuinely have something meaningful to share, and translate their knowledge into something accessible, human and inspiring.

The Salon does not feel like a lecture. It feels like someone sitting in your living room, finally making clear the things you have wanted to understand for a long time.
