October 4th family retreat
🌿 Nurture Together - A 1-day family event in partnership with Mind the Mom
A gentle pause for the whole family — breathe, connect, and slow down together
📅 Saturday, October 4th
📍 Serra da Arrábida — just 25 min from Lisbon
If you’ve been curious about joining one of the Mind the Mom retreats, or if you’ve simply been longing for a slower day in nature with your family, this is for you.
In the morning, mothers will be welcomed into a soft, nourishing space for connection and restoration. We’ll begin with a short sharing circle, followed by a yoga practice designed to ground and recharge you, and we’ll finish with a gentle cacao ceremony.
While this happens, children will be lovingly cared for in a mindful, playful setting — and partners are invited to enjoy this time with them.
Later, we’ll come together again for a long, family-style brunch. In the afternoon, you can choose to join an optional activity or simply enjoy slow, unhurried time together on the land.
This one-day retreat is designed for mothers, partners, and children of all ages — a little taste of what we experience at our week-long retreats, but closer to home.
✨ Investment: €220 per family*
🌿 Early bird: €195 per family* (until 15.09)

Full schedule for the day:
10:30 – Welcome tea / coffee. Soft arrival with tea and a warm hello for mums, dads, and kids.
11:00 – Time apart.
11:00 – 11:15 - Opening circle / sharing. A simple and symbolic moment to create connection between the mothers. We’ll sit in circle, set an intention for the day, and arrive gently together.
11:15 – 12:15 - Yoga class for mums. A restorative and fluid practice, open to all levels. The class may weave in themes from the circle, inviting silence, breath, and mindful movement.
12:30 – 12.45 - Short cacao ceremony - Closing - integration moment. A short space to land before returning to the family - a gentle stretch, a quiet reflection, or a few words written down… a soft transition back.
11:00-12:30 - Childcare + quality time for partners & kids.
13:00 – Family-style brunch. A nourishing, joyful and informal moment all together.
14:30 – Optional family activity or free time. Nature-based activity (land art, movement, creative play), creation of a mandala. Or just enjoy the space and the pool with your family at your own pace.
16:00 - 16:30 – Closing moment. Simple circle to end the day with presence and gratitude.
