As primeiras visitas virtuais projetadas pelo projeto ERA Virtual utilizavam-se do plugin Flash Player para a sua execução, já que esta era a melhor maneira de visualizarmos as fotografias 360º naquele momento. Com o avanço da tecnologia, novas linguagens surgiram e possibilitaram a visualização destas fotografias em HTML5, tornando o plugin Flash Player obsoleto. O suporte dos navegadores a este plugin foi encerrado em janeiro de 2021, e portanto, muitas das visitas tornaram-se inacessíveis. Nestas instruções você irá aprender a utilizá-las, bastando para isso a instalação de uma versão antiga do Mozilla Firefox, e posteriormente o plugin Flash Player.
For decades, the wellness industry sold us a simple equation: thinness equals health. We were told that to be well, we must shrink ourselves—both physically and metaphorically. The messaging was relentless: count calories, punish your body in the gym, and above all, never, ever be satisfied with what you see in the mirror.
But a quiet revolution has been simmering beneath the surface of green smoothies and yoga mats. It is called the body positivity and wellness lifestyle—and it is dismantling the old rules one breath at a time.

In diet culture, your relationship with your body is adversarial. You say "No" to cravings, "No" to rest, and "No" to pleasure until a weight goal is met. The conflict arises when wellness becomes a vehicle
In a body-positive lifestyle, you ask your body what it needs.
This shift from rigid rules to intuitive listening requires serious courage. It means trusting your body after years of being told it is a liar. But when it clicks, anxiety drops. The cortisol (stress hormone) that spiked every time you looked in the mirror subsides, creating a biological state actually conducive to health.
Before we merge the two concepts, we need clarity. Body positivity is often misunderstood as "glorifying obesity" or "giving up on hygiene." In reality, the modern body positivity movement has three core tenets:
Importantly, body positivity does not demand that you love every roll or stretch mark every single day. That is "toxic positivity." Instead, it asks for body neutrality—the practice of acknowledging your body without judgment. A body neutrality approach to wellness sounds like this: "My legs are tired today, so rest is the healthiest choice. Tomorrow we walk."
