Winter in the Lagoon


Description

This new program focusses on mindful body practice and includes Health Hiking along Portugal’s coast. We will get to know each other, you will get to know yourself and explore different mindful body exercises which you can practice at home after the retreat. We will hike together, we will be silent together, we will laugh and dance together. The seaside location allows you to feel the fresh sea breeze and hear the waves of the Atlantic as you walk along the sandy beaches. The gentle sound of the sea and the salty air can be very calming and relaxing. Health hiking on the coast can be a refreshing, invigorating and inspiring experience. It allows you relax and do something for your physical and mental health at the same time. Join our small group of max 8 people and practice morning qigong, gentle health hikes by the Atlantic coastline or by the Òbidos lagoon. Enjoy an outdoor picnic (light lunch) and a naptime afterwards. There will be changing activities/workshops in nature.
