RAIMON CORTADA
The boss. founder of Vitae, like all bosses is also a person and that is why he has not hesitated to star in Who is behind the scenes of December. Direct, clear and imposing while close and fun. The door of his office is always open. Passionate about life, nature and his work, for him, Vitae is more than a company, I would risk saying that Vitae is like his child (with forgiveness to his children, whom he adores).
FAVORITE COLOR
My favorite color, how could it be otherwise, is green. For me it represents nature and vitality, that’s why the color of Vitae is green.
YOUR MUSIC AND SONG
I love classical music, it’s the most direct way to connect with your senses. In particular, my favorite piece is Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. Each and every one of us should listen to it or at least once in a lifetime, so you know, this Christmas you have a great soundtrack.
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU WAKE UP
I do physical exercises to tone the body, something very simple but it allows me to start the day with energy and vitality.
WHAT DO YOU DO BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP
I do exercises similar to those of the morning, but focused on relaxing the mind and body and, thus, to enjoy a pleasant and refreshing sleep.
WHAT DO YOU DO TO RELAX
I practice Chi Kung, a discipline of traditional Chinese medicine that is similar to some martial arts and that basically helps to relax and work the inner energy. As Maria José commented in her interview, it is a highly recommended and good practice for physical and mental health
WHAT IS YOUR PASSION
I have many passions, but those that allow me to be in contact with nature are my favorites, such as skiing and hiking. Lately, I am also dedicating a lot of time to our plantation of sea buckthorn, located in the Cerdanya about 2 hours drive from Barcelona, which I enjoy extremely.
WHAT DOES LOOKING AFTER YOURSELF MEAN TO YOU
For me to take care of myself is to do everything one considers necessary to feel comfortable internally. When you manage to find that inner peace you feel good and as a result it is reflected on the outside.
