Bill Tara Receives Life Time Achievement Award
Lifetime Achievement Award - Kushi Peace Prize
We recently returned from a trip to Boston and the beautiful Berkshires, Massachusetts, where Bill was being awarded an accolade for his life's work. Previous recipients that you may know are
- Suzuko Yamamoto who introduced Shiatsu massage to the West
- Dennis Kucinich, an American politician, a vegan and great supporter of health initiatives
- Dr. Neal Barnard, founder of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
- Dr. Maggie Cottrell, a pioneer in medicine and in treating AIDS with natural therapies
The Gala Dinner & Keynote Speech
Bill was presented the award for his 55 years of teaching and spreading Macrobiotics world-wide. Ed Esko gave a lovely talk about how Bill was a true pioneer and inspiration, travelling all over Europe and giving lectures and seminars. His keynote speech, 'The Future Of Nutrition' was enjoyed by everyone. I am very proud of Bill for speaking the truth and never changing his story. His passion for our environment is like no other and I look forward to his words of wisdom for many more decades to come.
In the days prior to driving to the Berkshires, we took a trip down memory lane to visit the first Macrobiotic store in downtown Boston where Bill worked in the mid 60's.
Thanks to all who organised the Macrobiotic Summer Conference at Eastover, a beautiful part of New England. We both taught many classes and had much fun catching up with so many friends that we hadn't seen in years, and in particular for Bill who left the Berkshires in the mid 80's he sure had the best trip down memory lane.
