Portugal Retreat 2026 🤍
When I look back at these photos, my heart feels so full & happy. It may sound selfish…
I never really know how a retreat is going to unfold. And honestly... I don’t think I want to know.
I choose a theme. I create a structure. I prepare every detail I can.
But then I also leave space.
Space for people.
Space for life.
Space for things to find their own place, in their own time.
This retreat was meant to be calm and meditative.
I believe it was.
But it was also so much more & everything else.
It was fun.
Light.
Random.
Focused.
Very organised...
and completely disorganised at times.
It was deep conversations and comfortable silence.
It was laughter, tears, hugs, shared meals, yoga, nature, unexpected moments and memories that couldn’t be planned.
Authentic.
A little weird.
Beautifully human.
Some moments were joyful.
Some were difficult.
Some were simply... neutral & enough.
And maybe that’s what I love most about retreats.
They’re never about creating the perfect week.
They’re about creating the space for whatever needs to emerge.
Thank you to everyone who joined and who trusted me, trusted the process, and helped make this week exactly what it needed to be.
And a huge thank you to Gosia Malinowska | Psychosomatic Therapist for your beautiful presence, and to MOVE - Monte Velho for giving us such a magical home.
Until next time. 🤍
