A delightful Hatha or Vinyasa yoga practice is served after a light breakfast ending with a pranayama and mantras.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After a delicious lunch of local products, there is plenty of time for lazing around, relaxing at the pool, exploring the area, hiking the mountains, making a trip to the sea. Or perhaps booking a private session with one of the teachers.<\/div>\n
In the early evening, we teach a soothing Yin or Restorative yoga class, with hands-on adjustments to move deeper into the experience.<\/div>\n
After a home-made dinner, we’ll end the day feeling fulfilled and relaxed.<\/div>\n

In this incredible relaxing Yoga Retreat we will explore the various aspects of Yoga. For the early birds we start with a meditation during the sunrise \u2013 that special moment when the world briefly stands still.<\/p>\n

After breakfast we wake up the body with a Hatha or Vinyasa practice, after which we have a delicious lunch together.<\/p>\n

The afternoon until the evening is the time for exploring the area, taking a quiet walk in the mountains, reading a book, a relaxing or rejuvenating massage, a dive in the pool or perhaps a private session (yoga, reiki or coaching) with Lahma or Margriet. Or (if you are renting your own car) choose the beach to experience the healing power of the sea!<\/p>\n

In the early evening, the teachers teach a yin or restorative class, with hands-on adjustments to bring you deeper into the experience.<\/p>\n

After a home-made dinner with fresh local products, we see how the stars fill the sky above us and we prepare for a restful night in the unspoiled nature of Portugal…<\/p>\n

Leaving everyday life behind to make time for yourself. This is a conscious choice: it is not a holiday week with a packed program, you choose to turn inward. You take the time for yourself, to slow down,and to withdraw, to deepen and to reflect, to breathe\u2026. It can be a period that brings new insights and ideas about yourself and\/or your life.<\/p>\n

It works best without too much distraction (read: laptop, phone, email). Yoga and the tranquility of the environment are supporting this. Also the healthy food supports this process: we choose for food that nourishes you and doesn\u2019t just fill you up.<\/p>\n

This adds to a feeling of fulfillment and happiness. Food choices influence the mood, in a positive way. That\u2019s why the food is vegetarian (vegan if preferred) with fresh local and whenever possible organic vegetables. We stay away from alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n

Retreat and discover what it brings you!<\/p>\n
