Introducing Hummingbird Moth Retreats

The Beauty of Being

Our independent retreat experiences weave together movement, creative arts, sound, breathwork, somatic guidance and stillness, blending spiritual practice with creative expression and ceremony. Each retreat offers space to slow down, sharpen awareness and strengthen your connection to yourself.

We offer two types of retreat experiences designed to nurture you from the inside out: the seasonal teaser Autumn Series, and longer, immersive 5 day stays choice from Connect, Courage, Create and Calm .  Each journey invites you to draw into your own experiences and embrace an opportunity to truly get to know yourself. Each journey invites you to turn towards your own experience and embrace the opportunity to truly get to know yourself, not as a project to fix but as a relationship to deepen.

Guided by our experienced practitioners, you’ll embark on a journey of self-development and creative expression. With deep experience and a heart-centered approach, our team holds a safe, nurturing space where you can feel supported and free to explore, create and grow.

All retreat experiences take place in natural settings along Portugal’s Silver Coast, where green valleys meet wide sandy coastlines. These calm landscapes offer space to step out of daily demands and reconnect — not as an escape, but as essential support for meeting life with more clarity, steadiness and self-trust.

Alongside retreat experiences, I offer somatic and breathwork coaching informed by years of embodied practice and my ongoing training in Biodynamic Psychotherapy. My work focuses on emotional regulation and embodied awareness by maintaining a regular breath and body practice, allowing a steady respectful pace.  This enables participants build their own practical capacity to stay present with themselves in everyday life.

All our events are held with care and integrity, creating a safe and supportive environment where exploration can unfold without pressure.

Take time to explore our retreat and coaching offerings and discover the experience that feels aligned for you.

Our Practitioners

 We are an international team of established practitioners who interchange from retreat to retreat you can read more about our team below.

An Introduction to Breathwork

Breathwork isn’t the healer, you are. Breathwork is both a foundation and a source of strength. It empowers us to understand our choices more deeply. The more informed we are about our breath and its effects, the safer and more confident we can be in our practice. Think of it as a tool, a steady support, to guide you deeper into your own process.

Our 2026 Retreat experiences

Our 5-day retreats offer a sanctuary away from the noise of everyday life; a space to slow down, listen inward, and remember who you are beneath all that you carry. Held entirely in nature, against the stunning backdrop of Portugal’s lush valleys and sandy coastlines, these journeys provide the perfect balance of guided practice and spaciousness for personal reflection.

Each retreat is presented on one of four core themes Connect, Courage, Create and Calm, weaving together movement, voice liberation, creative arts, sound healing, silence and stillness. 

Through guided practices in ceremony you’ll explore the deeper layers of self-development, meeting both your strength and vulnerability with compassion.

Here, time stretches, silence softens, and what truly matters begins to surface. We will gently guide you to explore your inner landscape, awaken your senses, and reconnect with the deeper currents of your being.

Whether you are seeking to ignite Courage, foster Connection, awaken Creativity, or find Calm, each week-long journey offers space to nurture your whole self.

What is a Hummingbird Moth?

The hummingbird moth, a day-flying marvel with rapid wingbeats, resembles tiny hummingbirds and holds spiritual significance. As it flits between flowers, it symbolizes personal growth, transformation and resilience. Many cultures see moths as emblems of adaptability, inviting us to navigate life’s changes with grace. Their presence encourages openness to spiritual guidance and reminds us of the beauty of aligning with nature’s cycles.
