Summary

Together, we embark on a transformative journey inward to deepen our connection to ourselves and to the source of our power.

In a safe and protected circle of women, we will practice intensive Yin Yoga and shamanic/energetic healing work on a daily basis with the aim of clearing our energies, strengthening our connection, and creating a space for inner renewal. This intensive practice will enable us to view our lives from a broader perspective and free ourselves from old burdens. On a physical, mental, and spiritual level, we will let go, transform, and heal. Through the gentle but deeply effective practice of Yin Yoga in combination with shamanic/energetic healing methods, you will reconnect with your true self and your body—and healing can take place within you. What you can expect: • Daily long Yin Yoga practice
• Intensive shamanic/energetic healing work that supports you on all levels • A tropical garden with a swimming pool – a place of power that gives you space to linger • Lovingly prepared, vegetarian and Ayurvedic-inspired food that nourishes your body • Time for yourself – in a safe space for honest exchange with like-minded people
• Beautiful beaches and the magical coastal landscape of the Algarve • Pleasantly warm temperatures in the blossoming spring in Portugal • And much more... The program is subject to change and will be adapted on site to the needs of the group. There will be a free afternoon/evening to enjoy the moment for yourself.

Accommodation

In a beautiful oasis of energy, surrounded by a lush tropical garden, you can relax and recharge your batteries. The sea is about a 20-minute walk away. The Algarve is a true paradise in southern Portugal! Here, golden sandy beaches meet crystal clear waters, picturesque fishing villages meet charming towns, and unique landscapes meet a warm culture. The region is known for its breathtaking coastlines lined with majestic cliffs and secret coves. Historic towns such as Faro, Lagos, and Tavira enchant visitors with their welcoming atmosphere.
The perfect place to relax, explore, and enjoy unforgettable experiences. Accommodation is in a large glamping tent (4-5m diameter & standing height), nestled in the tropical garden, or in the villa, which is built in the typical Algarve style with lots of arches and spacious rooms.
All rooms/tents are spacious and lovingly furnished with a view of the garden. The rooms/tents can be booked as single or double rooms. Depending on the booking, the bathrooms with shower/bathtub are shared or for private use.

There is a large lounge in the villa for relaxing and socializing, as well as several sun terraces. A pool in the garden invigorates the senses and the large garden with yoga platform invites you to linger. Classes are mainly held outdoors. Price: • 1/2 double room in the villa: €1100 • Single room: €1350
• Private double room (2 people): €1900 • Private glamping tent 1 person: €1050 / 2 people: €1600 • Shared glamping tent (1/2 double room): €890 (per person) Last-minute discount: 20%

Catering

We are spoiled by experienced Ayurvedic chef Volker Kolacek. Delicious, lovingly prepared Ayurvedic-inspired vegetarian food, served on the sun terrace overlooking the sea when the weather is nice, nourishes your body and soul. Brunch and dinner are offered, and snacks such as fruit and nuts are available for those who feel peckish between meals.
We offer osmosis water, teas with fresh herbs from the garden, as well as coffee and juices. We are happy to accommodate any food intolerances.

A very balanced mix of excellently guided Yin Yoga and shamanic healing rituals with a diverse theoretical background. In a beautiful location with plenty of good food, always freshly prepared, Anja is a true person of the heart. I felt very safe, understood, and completely comfortable. I will definitely come back and can absolutely recommend Anja's retreat.

The retreat with Anja in Portugal was simply wonderful – a healing, exciting, and soothing experience for body, mind, and soul. The place there is a little paradise, full of tranquility, beauty, and good energy. Anja manages, with her warm-hearted and empathetic nature, to make you feel immediately welcome and secure. She is truly a wonderful person, and you can feel in every moment how much love and mindfulness she puts into her work. I am deeply grateful for this special time – an experience that will resonate for a long time. Absolutely recommendable!
