Limiar Nature Stays & Retreats

24/05/2026

Super short notice… but a lovely spontaneous opportunity has just come together, so I thought I’d share 🌿✨

This Tuesday at Limiar (18:00–20:00) we’ll host a very special intimate evening with two guests from two very different corners of the world: Italy and Greenland.

BEYOND THE EYES — A sensory nature experience with Paola (Italy)

How often do we truly experience nature with our whole being — not just through sight?

Paola will guide us through a playful and immersive exploration of the landscape through:
🌿 the surrounding soundscape
🌿 touch and tactile perception
🌿 altered ways of sensing the environment
🌿 simple shifts in awareness and perspective
🌿 and even a magical “walk among the treetops”… without leaving the ground ✨

Please bring:
• a scarf or bandana (for a blindfolded sensory exploration)
• a small hand mirror (approx. 10–15 cm)
• paper + pen

Then…

STORIES FROM GREENLAND — with Hanne

A rare chance to spend time with someone visiting from Greenland and hear about life in one of the most extraordinary environments on Earth.

An informal, warm conversation about:
❄️ Greenland’s landscapes and regions
❄️ wildlife and elemental nature
❄️ food, culture and craftsmanship
❄️ traditional ways of keeping warm and living in extreme climates

And something truly special: Hanne is bringing a piece of Greenlandic rock believed to be among the oldest on Earth 🌍

To close the evening, she’ll offer a gentle outdoor relaxation with Tibetan singing bowls beneath the trees 💛

🕕 18:00–20:00
🥗 Optional potluck / bring & share afterwards — if you feel like staying longer, bring a little food to share and enjoy a relaxed evening together
💛 Event by donation
🐾 No dogs please
📍 Limiar, Mata da Rainha

A little unusual. A little playful. A little magical.

JUNE 25–29 | LIMIAR, PORTUGAL
Not every reset needs a retreat.
But sometimes, a few quiet days in nature help.
This June, I’m opening Limiar for a small 5-day retreat focused on deep rest, sound, silence, gentle movement, good food, and space to breathe.
No performance.
No spiritual theatre.
No pressure to transform.
Just a simple, carefully held space for people who may need a pause.
For those feeling: – mentally overloaded
– between chapters
– creatively tired
– needing distance from noise
– or simply curious about what happens when life slows down
Small group.
Farmhouse rooms, bell tents, tiny house, simple camping options.
📍 Central Portugal
📅 June 25–29

🌿 OPEN DAY at LIMIAR — Nature Stays & Retreats
📅 May 17 | 17:30 – 20:30

A small guided afternoon to connect — with yourself, with nature, and with others.

At Limiar, an off-grid space for intimate stays and retreats in nature near Mata da Rainha, we’re opening the gates for a soft and meaningful gathering of breath, bodywork, sound, and shared presence.

The whole afternoon is imagined as a gentle promenade through the land — among oaks, rocks, hidden corners, terraces, water, and quiet spaces — with small tastings of different practices along the way.

Breathwork, Pilates fundamentals, touch and embodied practices, moments of rest, a sound journey demonstration with gongs and ancestral instruments, and a closing around the fire.

Not a festival.
Not a performance.
Just a beautiful way to slow down, reconnect, meet talented practitioners and experience the space.

💛 By conscious donation — gift economy
🍷 Bar open afterwards
🐕 No pets or dogs can be accommodated on this occasion.

Small group — please reserve in advance 🌿

There are many excellent offerings when it comes to retreats, trainings and structured experiences.

Limiar is a bit different.

There’s no program you need to follow, no pressure to participate, no expectation to engage. You can join a retreat, or simply stay here for a few days and keep to yourself.

We’re here to support your own rhythm.
Nothing is asked of you.
You already know what you need — and when.
We hold the space for that.

Most days are simple: birds, water, wind in the trees.
Sometimes there are sound journeys, bodywork, or quiet sessions with practitioners — always optional.

The place itself is simple but cared for — bell tents, rooms, warm showers, and shared indoor spaces when you need a bit more comfort.

You can rest, walk, read, swim, or just sit and do nothing.

That’s enough.

If this resonates, you’ll understand 🌿

A few moments from recent days at Limiar 🌿
People gathering around a table, slow evenings, simple conversations, time in nature.
It’s a place where you can stay a few days, rest, move a little, or just be — at your own rhythm.
Bell tents, private rooms and a small wooden tiny house, in a quiet setting near the Gardunha mountains.
Sometimes there are shared moments, sometimes not.
Both are welcome.
Feel free to reach out if you’re curious 🌿

Limiar is slowly taking shape here in central Portugal 🌿
This is not a typical retreat space, but a place in nature where small, intentional experiences can emerge—through sound, silence, and time to reconnect.
Alongside retreats, I sometimes open the space for quieter stays, especially for those who feel the need to pause, recalibrate, or simply spend some time in a more natural rhythm.
Everything here is still evolving, step by step.
Small groups, real encounters, and space for something meaningful to unfold.
If this resonates, you’re welcome to get in touch and explore what could take shape here✨
