Unplug and Reset Portugal Yoga Retreat

You deserve a break from the busy, ‘always on’ world we live in. This 7-day yoga and mindfulness retreat will provide you with sanctuary and peace of mind as well as help cultivate resilience for managing your emotional wellness so that life can be more manageable – all while reconnecting to what brings joy every day!

​

Imagine embarking on a rejuvenating week away in the breathtaking south of Lisbon, where each day is carefully crafted to provide a perfect balance of relaxation and adventure.

 

Our journey will commence with a 90-minute yoga and meditation class each morning, setting the tone for a tranquil day ahead.

 

With our spirits lifted and our bodies nourished by a scrumptious vegetarian brunch, we will have ample free time to explore the alluring local beaches or practice our surfing skills amidst the stunning ocean.

The picturesque villages around the area offer a charming alternative for those who prefer to absorb the rich culture and heritage of this enchanting region.

​

Come afternoon, our focus will shift to a more mildly-paced yin or restorative class, accompanied by pranayama workshops aimed at unifying our minds and bodies, and delving deeper into our yoga practice.

As evening falls, we will share exquisite organic meals, lovingly prepared to indulge our taste buds and nourish our bodies, reflecting on the experiences of the day with our fellow retreat-goers.

​

One of the highlights of our week will be a mid-week excursion, where we will embark on a Setubal wine tour, offering an intimate glimpse into the venerable wine culture of Portugal.

 

Surrounded by sprawling vineyards, we will relish a gourmet lunch meticulously prepared on-site, adding yet another unforgettable memory to our extraordinary retreat experience in the south of Lisbon.
