The Shadow of Light
Yoga and Art Retreat in Portugal
26th - 29th October 2024
Come and explore your shadow through your body and art
With Hannah Pixie and Eduardo Terzidis
@ Quinta Alma, Aljezur, Portugal
Yoga & Meditation, Rituals and Art Workshops

What to expect
An opportunity to grow.
Have you ever made friends with all of the parts that make you? As humans, we tend to push darkness away and run after light. We dislike the unpleasant and like the pleasant. But what if we could find contentment in the light and in the shadow alike?
During our time together, you will experience living close to the rhythms of nature and in tune with those of your body. We will use the practice of yoga, meditation and art as tools to know ourselves better and grow.
The aim of this experience is to provide you with tools that can support you in better expressing yourself in your daily life.
