Portugal

In the beautiful nature of Algarve we rent a beautiful venue.  Faro Airport is closest to the location. Being in nature makes it easier to dive deep into the work we offer and letting go of daily worries.

We facilitate  beautiful retreats with the profound methods and tools to help you dive into your inner world. 

One of the retreats is called the Rebirth of the Soul. All our knowledge and experience is focused in this program, that is build around Rumi's famous quote: "The Wound is the Place where the Light enters". This retreat contains two plant medicine ceremonies.

Our  documentary Rebirth of the Soul was filmed in Portugal. In this documentary you can watch the several methods we use (and teach) in our retreats and courses.  

Since 2024 we facilitate only twice a year a retreat,  four and/or five days with two mother plant medicine ceremonies. And of course our international Soul Coach modules (plant medicine facilitator). From 2026 on also a Womens retreat with OR without plant medicine (you can choose!) 

Please read the information carefully so you know what to expect.
