The Science of Hydration

Good hydration is about more than how much water we drink — it’s about how well our bodies use it.
Fluids help the body clear waste, keep joints moving, and support steady energy and digestion.

At Hoogland, mineral water and herbal teas are always available to keep this balance gentle and steady. The minerals in the water replace what’s lost through activity, and the herbs add their own quiet support for calm and digestion.

Weekend Moments: Gentle Pilates

Pilates offers more than movement — it is a way to connect breath, balance, and strength. Just a few minutes of mindful practice can ease stiffness, improve posture, and bring the nervous system into calm alignment.

At Hoogland, daily Pilates classes give guests the chance to strengthen gently, release tension, and restore energy. With steady focus and guided movement, the body feels both energised and at ease — ready to carry you through the day with balance.

🌿 This weekend, take five minutes to lengthen, strengthen, and restore.

As evening settles over the valley, the distant calls of black-backed jackals sometimes echo through the hills — sharp, haunting notes that remind us how alive the landscape truly is.

These small, clever carnivores play an important role in nature’s balance. They are both hunters and scavengers, helping to keep ecosystems clean and populations in check. Living in lifelong pairs, they are known for their loyalty and remarkable adaptability.

For guests, hearing their calls at dusk is both grounding and stirring — a gentle reminder that healing at Hoogland takes place not only in calm waters and quiet rooms, but within a thriving wilderness that still speaks around us. 🌙

A cup of herbal tea is more than hydration — it is a quiet ritual of care. As the steam rises and the warmth settles in your hands, the nervous system softens, digestion is supported, and the body is gently reminded to pause.

This weekend, let your tea be more than a drink. Sip slowly, breathe deeply, and be present in the moment. 🌿

Wellness Wisdom: The Gut–Brain Connection

The gut and the brain are in constant conversation. This link — known as the gut–brain axis — means that what happens in the digestive system directly influences mood, focus, and resilience.

When the gut is balanced, beneficial bacteria produce neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which support calmness and clarity. But when digestion is disrupted by stress, poor diet, or inflammation, it can contribute to anxiety, low mood, and fatigue.

Lifestyle choices play a vital role: nourishing food, regular movement, quality sleep, and mindful stress reduction all help to restore this connection.

At Hoogland, practices like supervised fasting, balanced meals, and guided relaxation support both gut health and emotional wellbeing. 🌿

Fertility is more than a biological function — it reflects the state of our overall health.

From inflammation and metabolic balance to stress and sleep, every system in the body plays a part in supporting or hindering our ability to create new life.

Our latest article explores the factors shaping fertility today — including the role of both male and female health, the impact of modern lifestyles, and how lifestyle medicine can support the body’s natural capacity for reproduction.

At Hoogland, we’ve seen how improving overall wellbeing can make a profound difference, both in fertility outcomes and in lifelong health.

Weekend Moments: Forest Bathing

Spending quiet time among trees is more than a pleasant walk — it is a practice known as forest bathing. Time in nature lowers stress, steadies blood pressure, and calms the nervous system.

Just ten minutes of stillness beneath the canopy can restore focus, ease tension, and remind us of our connection to the living world.

🌿 This weekend, find a path, breathe deeply, and let nature hold you.
