YOGA & MEDITATION RETREAT | CONSCIOUS HOLIDAY
Yoga retreats can be a great way to unwind and de-stress from the demands of daily life. They provide an opportunity to step away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and focus on self-care and personal growth. Most of our guests find that participating in a yoga retreat helps them to feel more relaxed and centred, and often improve their overall sense of well-being. Additionally, Shamballah provides a supportive and nurturing environment in which participants can learn more about themselves and develop new skills and habits that can help them to live happier, healthier lives.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR YOGA & MEDITATION RETREAT IN PORTUGAL, AT SHAMBALLAH?

Yoga Practices
Mornings usually begin with dynamic Vinyasa Flow to awaken the body.
Later in the day, we move into calmer styles like Hatha, Restorative, and Yin Yoga for relaxation and recovery.
Patricia brings over 30 years of experience in different bodywork modalities, so she frequently weaves in complementary exercises.
As a result, she tailors each class to suit both the group dynamic and any individual needs.
Additionally, during the week our classes centre on the chakras – your subtle energy centres – helping you explore balance and awareness on a deeper level.
Nourishing Food
Food is a very important part of this program and often becomes a highlight for many of our guests.
With influences from around the world, we prepare fresh and delicious meals using local and organic ingredients whenever possible.
For example, breakfasts offer plenty of choices on the table, and our fresh homemade sourdough bread is always very popular!


Accommodation
The spacious house features high-quality finishing that provides all the comfort you need for your stay.
Moreover, with underfloor heating, you can enjoy the retreat comfortably all year round, embracing the unique beauty of every season.
Beds are very comfortable, and we offer different living spaces where you can connect with others or simply enjoy quiet reading.
In addition, the sun terrace is a wonderful spot to soak up vitamin D and fresh air.
Finally, just a 10-minute walk away, you’ll reach the cliffs with spectacular views of the ocean.
Healing Treatments
We have different healing treatments available.
Massage is one of the most ancient forms of healing known to humanity, and it remains highly effective at relaxing both the body and the mind.
At our retreats, we offer a variety of healing massage therapies, all of which take a truly holistic approach to wellbeing.
Indeed, when human touch is given from a conscious, present space, it becomes a powerful channel for deep and lasting healing.


Other Activities
Your retreat includes plenty of time for self-care and adventure.
We’ve chosen high-quality activities with facilitators who are truly passionate about their work.
Indeed, they love sharing their knowledge and experience with you.
Together, these practices gently align your body and mind to their natural state of balance.
In this way, they cultivate a calm, clear mind – opening the door to creative ideas, curiosity, and a renewed passion for life’s journey.
LET’S CONNECT

VARIOUS TYPES OF YOGA WE PRACTICE
The morning classes are Vinyasa Yoga, a dynamic fluid sequence of asanas (postures) linked with conscious breath. These classes start with an intention (sankalpa) followed by a warm up, and a variation of the Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskara), a sequence of powerful yoga poses with profound benefits.
The evening classes are Hatha and Yin and Restorative Yoga.
Hatha is a type of yoga that guides practitioners through postures at a slower pace with more guidance on how to do each pose with proper alignment. Yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones. It’s slower and more meditative. Restorative yoga enables deep relaxation as you holding poses for longer periods of time with the help of props (blocks, bolsters, blankets and strap) to completely support you, without strain or pain, to achieve physical, mental and emotional relaxation.

WHAT MAKES US THE BEST
YOGA & MEDITATION RETREAT IN PORTUGAL?
One of the main reasons we’re often regarded as the best yoga retreat in Portugal is simple: we lived a monastic lifestyle for many years.
We created Shamballah to share the wisdom we’ve gained and to continue our own daily practice in a meaningful way.
Our location adds to the experience as well. We’re conveniently close to Lisbon and immersed in the breathtaking beauty of Sintra Natural Park. When you combine that with delicious, nourishing food, highly qualified facilitators, and skilled therapists, it all comes together beautifully.
