AUTUMN GLOW RETREAT
5th – 10th OCTOBER 2026
PORTUGAL I ALENTEJO
Say yes to your aliveness.
Come move and breathe with us in the wild, golden stillness of Alentejo - where the land stretches wide and the skies invite you to become soft and wide open. At this threshold of the year, we gather to remember that our breath is sacred, vitality is available, and our bodies hold the wisdom we’ve been seeking.
For the third time, we return to Terra Quinta - an up and coming eco-retreat nestled in Portugal’s unspoiled countryside. Surrounded by cork forests, wide meadows, and the soft hum of wild nature, this land calls you back to what is real, alive, and essential.
This retreat is a place to breathe, move, feel, and rest. Through embodied practice, shared silence, nourishing food, and deep connection - both within and around - you’ll be held in a rhythm of reawakening. Come just as you are: spacious or tender, curious or weary, full of joy or in need of stillness. There is room for all of you here.
BREATHE. MOVE. AWAKEN.
THE VENUE
Terra Quinta is more than a retreat center - it’s a living, breathing ecosystem designed for healing and reconnection. With artfully crafted eco-accommodations, a natural swimming pool, permaculture gardens, and magical landscapes, this space invites your body to exhale.
You’ll practice in two beautifully designed spaces:
A covered outdoor shala that welcomes the light, wind, and warmth of Alentejo’s landscape.
A spacious indoor studio, inspired by elemental textures and natural forms - perfect for grounding and stillness.
This is a sanctuary for remembering: your inner rhythm, your breath, your joy.
