Retreat details
The retreat will take place in the beautiful Sierra de Estrela mountains, a natural healing sanctuary nestled in the stunning foothills and without a car or house in sight.
We invite you to immerse yourself in this abundant wilderness. Explore cascading river pools, wander endless trails and listen deeply to the sensations of forest bathing.
Each day we will journey through a different elements - fire, earth, water, air and ether, tapping into the powerful qualities that these elements offer to us. By connecting deeply with the rhythm of nature, we will go on a journey to deeper connection with ourselves and one another.
This retreat is organised by Oru Space studio in London and is open to everyone, irrespective of your experience of yoga, massage or meditation, travelling solo or with loved ones.
A chance to immerse in nature and in the somatic refuge of the body, guided safely and inspirationally by their yoga teachers.
Yoga Teacher
Miriam Brightbart
Miriam Brightbart
Miriam found yoga at a time in her life when she was disconnected from her body and struggling with anxiety, and experienced deeply transformative effects from this wonderful practice that brought her back into her body and into the present. Miriam’s classes can be powerful and challenging, but invite plenty of opportunities for deep release and relaxation. Her classes weave together themes of self-love, body awareness and connection, working with breath to find union through mindful movement meditation. Her intention is to facilitate a space of curious enquiry, where practitioners can deepen their journey to self understanding.
