After a year of feeling disconnected from myself; these 5 days was a perfect reminder of my knowledge about mindfulness and lessons & guidance with meditation and theory behind both of these things.

Perfect kick start bringing meditation into my life and mindfulness back.

Learnt a variety of meditation techniques, yin yoga and mindfulness techniques. A very well balanced course with the ability to take back what you’ve learnt to normal life and fit it around a normal work schedule.

Thankyou Renata!

I liked the mindfulness course a lot. It gave me good theoretical background about mindfulness in general and about stress in particular. Practising meditation was really good as well, it complemented very well the theory. Renata is very passionate about what she does and that can be seen in the energy she puts into her work. She pays attention to every little detail and prepares very well upfront to deliver the best experience to the customer. I really enjoyed my time there. The place is in the countryside and is very quiet. It’s very well looked after. The food was great. Fresh and delicious. The beach was 15 min drive and it’s a really nice beach. The weather was good as well. Sunny and warm in the afternoons, but cooler in the mornings and evenings. All in all it was a great experience and I’m really happy I did it. I would totally recommend it to anyone who wants to manage stress better and live a more mindful life.

Renata is a very experienced, open, guiding and inspirational person and mindfulness coach. Not only do you learn the theory and practice of mindfulness in a structured and enjoyable way, but you also gain a deeper understanding of yourself in the process and go forward with an energy to make positive changes in your life. The entire retreat experience was unforgettable and life changing.

Foi uma experiência intensa e reveladora. Uma oportunidade de nos reconectarmos com a nossa essência e descobrir um pouco mais sobre as nossas emoções. Um período para descobrirmos mais sobre nós mesmos e de como levar uma vida mais consciente e tranquilo neste mundo tão conturbado e frenético. Aconselho para toda a gente que deseja um pouco mais de paz e qualidade de vida. As instalações são perfeitas para um retiro, com acomodações confortáveis. Uma atenção especial ao menu diário de refeições, de altíssima qualidade. Obrigada Renata e Joana por todo o carinho :)

the course, content was well laid out, well presented and in the most perfect setting.

Everything about the course exceeded expectations and I would recommend highly.

I came into this with little experience in meditation and learnt a huge amount and felt the quiet backdrop in amongst nature and a subtle luxury was super. This was somewhat of a 'game changing' retreat as I would say.
