About us
Our story
Humanamente launched in 2016 as a vehicle for a healthier, fuller and more mindful life. We were born from the wish to create a serious yet approachable space in Portuguese, to talk about health, well-being and personal development without miracle solutions or judgment.
Health
Reliable information about the body, prevention, and the small habits that make the biggest difference in the long run.
Well-being
A space to slow down — sleep, nutrition, movement, and the relationship we have with our own body.
Personal development
Practical tools to know yourself better, manage emotions, and build a life with more purpose.
Almost 10 years alongside you
Since 2016 we've published regular issues, interviews and articles meant to help our readers live more mindfully — one step at a time.
The founder
Paula Gouveia
Paula Cristina Gouveia was born on August 5, 1987, in Viseu, Portugal. She holds a degree in Journalism and Communication, a postgraduate qualification in Regional Journalism, and a master's in International Relations.
She decided to create Humanamente to promote a more informed, honest and happy way of living. Her magazine aims to communicate simply and clearly, replacing walls with bridges and sowing knowledge, empathy and affection.
Paula Gouveia is passionate about writing, literature, music, cinema and art in general, and tries to channel all of these interests into the Humanamente project — which aims to be, more than an anthology of knowledge, an anthology of feeling that keeps us all going on this journey called life.
