Overview

Back to Bliss: A Return to Simplicity & Connection

Step away from the daily noise and reconnect with the simplicity and beauty of nature at our Back to Bliss Retreat. Nestled in the serene landscape of Quinta Marugo in Portugal, this retreat invites you to ground yourself, recharge, and rediscover the joy of simply being.

Retreat Overview
Guided by Luke’s nurturing approach to Vinyasa, Hatha, and Yin yoga, each day unfolds with purpose and presence. Morning sessions awaken the body with gentle flow and breathwork, while evening sessions guide you into meditative stillness, allowing time to unwind and reflect. Throughout, the wisdom of The Power of Now threads through our practices, anchoring us in the present moment and nurturing an intimate connection to self and surroundings.

What to Expect

Daily Yoga Practices – Awaken with energizing Vinyasa Flow in the morning and wind down with restorative Yin and mindfulness sessions in the evening, creating a balanced rhythm of movement and stillness.
Breathwork & Meditation – Deepen your mindfulness with guided sessions designed to cultivate calm, grounding, and self-discovery.
Sacred Music & Kirtan – Gather under the evening sky for Kirtan, where soulful music and mantra chanting bring the group together, fostering community and shared presence.
Sound Bath Healing – A meditative sound bath to release stress, balance energy, and promote deep relaxation.
Holistic Workshops for Inner Growth – Guided journaling, mindfulness exercises, and open discussions invite you to explore your inner landscape, releasing what no longer serves.

This retreat follows a unique flow, gently building energy midweek before tapering into relaxation, allowing you to experience both intensity and rest. Beyond yoga and meditation, there is ample time to explore the peaceful natural beauty of Quinta Marugo, wander, or simply pause and soak in the stillness.

The Food
Enjoy fully inclusive meals and snacks with unlimited tea and coffee. Daily meals are sourced from Quinta Marugo’s own organic gardens.
