JONATAN TEJEL
Youth Director


IF YOUR PARENTS RAISED YOU WITH A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE, WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO KEEP THOSE HABITS LATER IN LIFE?
When I was born in Spain in 1966, food was scarce. There were not easy options for choosing what to eat in a poor family. My father was a pastor and my mother always tried to give us a balance food menu according to our possibilities. With the time it grew inside of me the need to look even further and I did some changes to my diet according to what I founded in the Bible and also with the influence of my wife that truly believes in a healthy diet.
 
WHAT HAVE BEEN MOTIVATING FACTORS FOR YOU TO WORK ON IMPROVING SOME ASPECTS OF YOUR LIFESTYLE?
I always loved sports activities. I played soccer, basketball, tennis, I practice rock climbing, hiking, and many more. But with my work and responsibilities I did not put apart time to continue with my sports activities. After several years I felt how my body changed for the worst and now I’m trying to go back to do some exercise that will give me the strength and clarity of mind needed in life.
 
SINCE HOW LONG DO YOU HAVE A PLANT-BASED DIET?
It has been a slow process in my life and I’ve decided to have a plant-based diet only one year ago.
 
WHAT IS YOUR GOAL FOR DAILY WATER INTAKE? HOW / WHAT HELPS YOU TO REACH THIS GOAL?
My daily water intake goal is about 3 litres. In the past I was not intentional with water drinking and I only drunk water as I felt thirsty. For the last 4-5 years I’ve become more intentional with this and I’m trying to follow certain habits… As I wake up every morning, before having breakfast I drink already almost a litre, during the morning I plan for another litre, and the rest in the afternoon (usually herbal teas).
