with Véronique & Niamh
Set in the peaceful Algarve hills, this weekend retreat is a chance to slow down, breathe, move, and reconnect with your creativity. With Véronique, you’ll explore simple but powerful tools to open space for creativity to flow. From this grounded place, Niamh (an author and publisher who loves supporting others in expressing themselves) will help you take the next step in finding and shaping your unique voice. Together, they create a warm and welcoming space where your creativity can unfold with ease and confidence.
Over three days, we’ll combine yoga and breathwork with inspiring writing workshops and personal reflection. Whether you’re an aspiring writer or simply curious about reconnecting with your creative self, this retreat offers a powerful blend of somatic and expressive work to help you find clarity, courage, and confidence in your unique voice.
With a carefully curated program, you’ll be supported to explore your inner landscape, release old patterns, and express yourself more freely. Together, we’ll share plant-based meals, meaningful conversations, and quiet moments under open skies.
This retreat is a celebration of self-discovery, embodiment, and creativity. Come as you are, and leave with a deeper connection to your body, your breath, and your words.
We offer both residential and non-residential options. For non-residential, please contact Veronique directly: [email protected].
Note that there are maximum 7 places for residential participants and 5 for non-residential.
We look forward to welcoming you.
