In 2013, he retired from UNESP and is now Coordinator of the Vitta Espaço Saúde in Londrina-PR working on themes related to integrative health, using mainly floral essences and the approach of Archetypal Astrology based on the research of Richard Tarnas to understand the functioning of the human psyche, its crises and its evolutions. In this new work he uses the concepts of Chaos Theory, Complex Systems and Quantum Physics, using the transdisciplinary approach and the more open visions of spirituality in the search for self-knowledge as an instrument of integral healing of the human being, before the somatization of pathologies. He teaches courses, lectures and is also a writer on these topics. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
