From February 22nd to 24th, 2020, a wonderful international conference took place in Copenhagen. Alex Kerten, author of the book “Goodbye Parkinson’s, Hello Life”, opened the conference in the historic and elegant setting of the Danish Parliament.
From the very beginning, the event stood out for its remarkable creativity, high energy, and a spirit of positivity that was truly contagious.
Science, professionalism, years of study, hands-on experience, and dedication to diverse disciplines, research, and practice were shared expertly with the participants. From the very beginning, attendees felt like true protagonists of the conference, just as much as the speakers themselves.
Frank Sinatra, Charlie Chaplin, and Barbra Streisand symbolically joined Alex Kerten in inspiring the audience — spreading smiles, body language, and empathy — while highlighting the powerful message of MREE: Life is Movement, Rhythm, Expression, and Energy!
Among the many speakers who took part in the conference:
Elisabeth Ildal, Henrik Dahl, Mirko Lorenz, Charlotte Maria, Matt Eagles, Denniz Kirik, Morten Meyer, Francesca De Bartolomeis, Andy Butler, Rikke Jakobsen, Gaynor Edwards, Vicki Dillon, Bo Hamburger, Martin Monrad, and Mette Bloch.
A rich and engaging program, featuring impactful talks all connected by a common thread: “Goodbye Parkinson’s, Hello Life!” Alex Kerten explained, with remarkable clarity and simplicity, the complexity of the human brain and the physiology of habits related to Parkinson’s. He also shared practical and accessible strategies that, when practiced consistently in daily life, can help address and overcome various challenges.
But something even more extraordinary happened during this conference: it allowed each participant to renew their vital energy, to be embraced by genuine smiles, and to be immersed in creativity and positivity — feeling it throughout their entire body and expressing it through movement, through body language, and by listening to their own rhythm.
Together, we shared each other’s life energy — empowering one another and creating a collective harmony that still resonates in our hearts.
