Details
After the fire, comes the hush. If you are tired of rushing, tired of forcing, tired in the bones — you do not need another demand. You need a temple. And it has always been inside you. *** You rest. The earth holds you. You breathe. The sky responds. You listen. Home reveals itself. *** THE OFFER. Inner Temple is an invitation to step away from the noise of the outer world and enter the sacred sanctuary within. Over five nurturing days, we will gather in presence and reciprocity—with the ground beneath us, the fruits of the earth, the vast sky above and the wise voice of our own bodies. * THIS RETREAT IS FOR YOU, IF YOU - carry soul-deep fatigue or a nervous system that will not stand down - have given so much and now quietly long to receive - hunger for pleasure, creative flow, sensuality and joy as true healing - want presence in the body, in daily rhythm, in life itself - are ready to discover that softness is your deepest strength (If the armour is still on and the fire is asking to be met first — that is Warrior of Light, one week earlier, in the same mountain.) *** THE MEDICINE - Gentle yoga & soft mobility — grace instead of grind. - Breathwork journeys — soothe the nervous system, open wide possibility. - Elemental rituals & somatic attunement — earth, air, fire, water through the body. - Conscious cooking with Chef Marta food as story, healing, celebration. Season’s herbs. Market jewels. Hands in the same bowl. Soul food that slows time. - Journaling, silence, group held in quiet — because slowing is the transformation. THE SANCTUARY The same hidden healing village: Casa de Cura, Monchique mountains, Algarve. Off-grid serenity. Houses on the hillside. Nature as co-facilitator. The heart of the house is already welcoming you. Surrender into peace. *** GUIDES Giulia Lops & Kerstin Marx — movement, breath, energy, presence. Marta — conscious cooking. Food that binds the circle. “Your energetic signature designs your path as the energy you carry shapes your world.”— Kerstin Marx

This is an off-grid retreat space deeply rooted in the earth and authenticity. Within this space, you will be gently guided to embrace the slow, soft, and sacred rhythm of mountain life - bringing you back to nature to return home to yourself. Our healing village has been intentionally created to remember the lost art of grounding in the wisdom of your body and the earth. Here, time doesn’t exist - you wake up to the sound of Mother Nature, move in a way that feels good for your body, and eat deliciously fresh and locally sourced food - revelling in the highly underrated pleasure of slowing down.

During the retreat MARTA the soul of Malina M will guide us into a quiet, soulful alchemy: turning the season’s freshest gifts—sun-warmed herbs, market jewels, and her quietly masterful seasoning—into vibrant, mostly plant-centered dishes that whisper French elegance and Italian heart. Her deepest joy is: creating food that slows time, awakens the senses, and gently binds us together. In small, hands-on cooking gatherings we’ll roll up our sleeves side by side—playing with pairings, co-creating simple yet luminous meals, and letting shared creativity deepen our connection. Come let Marta’s gentle firelight warmth and artistry nourish body, spirit, and circle. Taste the magic of pure soul food .
