MAJAMAYO METHOD™
Design
your life.
With the 5.
Most health advice focuses on one thing: less sugar, more movement, better sleep. But our health doesn’t work that way. Everything is connected. Nutrition affects sleep, sleep affects appetite, stress shapes our food choices, and the people around us influence how well we stick with change.
That’s why the MAJAMAYO METHOD™ looks at health as a whole. It brings together nutrition science, the principles of lifestyle medicine, and the psychology of behavior change, and turns them into a plan that fits your real life.
MAJAMAYO METHOD™: five pillars of health, a plan made to fit you, and habits that last.

LIFE DESIGN 5™ : Five pillars of health
Five areas that lifestyle science links to health throughout life. Every MAJAMAYO program covers all five, differing only in which ones come first for you.
01.
Nutrition
What you eat, how much, when, and how, as well as your relationship with food. Eating should be balanced, enjoyable, and fit naturally into your everyday life. Based on these principles, we build a nutrition plan that is tailored to you and sustainable in the long term.
02.
Physical activity
Movement throughout the day, building strength and endurance, with a special focus on preserving muscle mass, which plays a key role in healthy aging. The goal is to find a form of physical activity that you enjoy, that suits your abilities, and that naturally becomes part of your everyday life.
03.
Stress & sleep
How stress affects hunger, energy, and everyday decisions, and how to manage it better, set healthy boundaries, and build resilience to daily challenges. We pay special attention to the quality, duration, and regularity of sleep, as well as evening habits that support better rest and recovery. Because good sleep is one of the foundations of good health and lasting change.
04.
Emotional & social wellbeing
Your relationship with yourself and your body, the connection between emotions and food, the quality of your relationships with others, and the support you have. We pay special attention to emotional wellbeing and healthy relationships, because understanding, connection, and support are an important part of lasting change.
05.
Hazardous substances
Recognizing and gradually reducing habits that may negatively affect health, such as excessive consumption of ultra-processed foods and alcohol, with support in quitting smoking. The focus is on small, sustainable changes that contribute to better health over the long term.
The five pillars rest on the principles of lifestyle medicine. LIFE DESIGN 5™ is MAJAMAYO’s way of looking at them together, as one system, rather than as five separate pieces of advice.
02
Personalization
Personalization: what matters most to you
The five pillars of health are the same for everyone.
But you are not like everyone else.
That is why your plan is not created according to a template, but based on your needs, goals and lifestyle.
We take into account your goals, habits, daily rhythm and stage of life, family history, available medical findings and doctor's recommendations, and, if necessary, an analysis of body composition.
Based on that, together we determine the priorities and pace of changes that best suit you and your lifestyle.
03
Habit Reset™
Habit Reset™: how a recommendation becomes a habit
Knowledge doesn’t change health. Habits do. Habit Reset™ is MAJAMAYO’s approach to behavior change, and it is part of every program. It first lays the foundations (routines, meals, and environment), then builds new habits gradually, until they become your ordinary day. For those whose main goal is exactly this, Habit Reset™ is also available as a standalone program.
What the method looks like in practice
Assessment
Where you are today, what you want to change, and what stands in your way.
Plan
Priorities across the five pillars and a sustainable nutrition plan, tailored to your life.
Habit building
Small, clear steps, with guidance and adjustments along the way.
Maintenance
Tools and a plan that stay with you after the program.
The same method is applied in individual programs, in education and corporate programs through the MAJAMAYO Design Lab, and in experiences.
“I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all plans. I believe in habits that last, because they are tailored to the person who lives them.”
