In Mother’s Embrace ~ The Sweat of the Lotus 23-25 January 2026
Date: 23-25 January 2026
Place: Quinta São José dos Montes, Tomar
This weekend, we will embark on a journey to explore the stages and challenges faced by the lotus flower, dropping all conditioned identities that are keeping us in the dark of the survivor mode.
There are some aspects and dimensions of healing of us women that we can only access when we are fully surrendered, released into the state of vulnerability, in a safe space, among sisters, where we don’t have any conditioned behaviors or expectations that can be triggered by the presence of men. We will sit, walk, share in the circle of women, working in the dark, in trust, bravery, in feeling, in sensorial and experiential ways.
We are going into the sacred Sweatlodge together (in case of no heavy rain), to cleanse and give our prayers, be reborn, into fire and water ceremonies, working with the earth element, breath, movement, expression etc.
We dive deeper into what sacred sexuality and love means for us, what exactly it is that nourishes us when we feel completely safe — not through another, but through our communion with the elements, with our body, and with the Great Mother.
Equally, we will explore the intimacy that silence gives, guiding us deeper than words.
What to bring:
• Old clothes you are ready to burn.
• Your favorite piece of clothing.
• A dress in which you feel like a queen.
• A towel that can get dirty.
• A warm cloak/poncho/blanket for the night.

You don’t need to have any experience with shamanic work, however, this retreat is not about escaping or comfort. It is for those who feel the flame of awakening within, who are ready to enter both the presence of the dark and the call of a greater light.
The facilitation is taking place in English.
