After experiencing the serenity of Quinta Carvalhas for herself, Chantel from Pura Vida Yoga Dieppe, in partnership with Viva Vacation, is hosting a 5-day yoga & meditation retreat in Portugal from April 19th-24th, 2025. The theme of the retreat will be "how to ease into life". This retreat is intended for yogis of all levels.
Designed to help you unwind and attain greater connection with yourself through the main theme of "ease", you will learn practical strategies and experience in depth how life was meant to be lived.
Daily yoga sessions (2) will be offered, as well as optional workshops on "finding ease", all led by Pura Vida staff.
During your "ME" time, the property offers a meditation garden, with meandering paths peppered with benches that invite you to pause and breathe.
The property offers massages and other wellness treatments, as well as "horse encounters", both for the wellness of humans & horses.
