Our current healthcare system is based
on curing disease. The proper path for reducing healthcare
costs and improving our lives is based on prevention of
disease. There should be no question that clean air, clean
water and clean food are necessary for a healthy life that
prevents disease. There should be no question that exercise,
rest and reduction of stress, both physically and mentally,
are necessary for a healthy life that prevents disease.
The mission of the Rockhouse Mountain Institute is to
promote and support an alternative life-style that can
lead to a healthy life. This life-style promotes living
in an environment of clean air and clean water, promotes
the growing and ingesting of fresh food from our own gardens,
promotes the reduction of physical stress by substituting
a variety of home-based activities for the repetitive activity
in the money-oriented culture. It promotes the freedom
to rest and use our energy where we think is most useful.
It promotes the reduction of mental stress by reducing
the income requirements needed to maintain the family.
By promoting living together with the generations, it reduces
anxiety on the welfare of loved ones (childcare and eldercare)
and by freeing up time, it helps people realize the ambitions
of their legacies.
Rockhouse Mountain Institute also provides educational and
financial support for individuals and families looking to
create this alternative life-style.
