A wellness holiday · Ericeira coast, Portugal
Five days of stillness, nature and gentle healing by the Atlantic.
Why we made this
We don’t believe one person can heal another. Everyone has their own process and their own pace. What we offer is a quiet place above the Atlantic where you can rest, accept yourself as you are, and simply be.
Every session is an invitation. Nothing is compulsory except our Welcome Circle on the first evening.
Your facilitators
We met in Shanghai over fifteen years ago and found each other again after the pandemic, one of us in Portugal and the other in the south of France. This is the first wellness holiday we are hosting together.
Born in China and living in Cascais since 2022, Cissy has designed tailor-made journeys since 2014. Her own path led her through retreats from Bimini to Peru, and into Traditional Chinese Medicine and hypnosis. She offers the one-to-one TCM tongue diagnosis and guides the Soul Healing journey.
Originally from Malaysia, Jo founded the Holistic Harmony Institute on the French Riviera, where she runs workshops and private sessions in yoga, Reiki and sound healing. She brings more than 20 years of international experience. Her work combines yoga therapy, pranayama breathing and Tibetan singing bowls, all aimed at one thing: helping people feel well in body, mind and emotions. Her motto is “One breath at a time.” Here she leads the yoga, sound healing, Reiki, healing circles and art healing.
What we’ll share
A private reading of your tongue and constitution in Traditional Chinese Medicine, with a personal wellbeing plan for food, sleep and daily rhythm that you take home.
A deep guided meditation inward on our last morning, which may open into a gentle past-life regression for those who are ready.
Slow yoga that ends in deep rest with Tibetan singing bowls.
Yoga meets the flowing, playful spirit of Brazilian capoeira. Movement that wakes up the body and makes you smile.
A safe space to share, listen and be held by the group, with Reiki energy healing.
A guided meditation, then painting and creating from feeling. Let colour say what words can’t. No artistic skill needed.
A walk through the green valley down to a quiet beach, about 25 minutes on foot.
We open and close our time together as a circle, with sound and Reiki on the last evening.
The five days
No early alarms and plenty of space to rest. Brunch is at noon, dinner in the evening, and every afternoon has time to simply be.
Private sessions
Book these when you reserve, or ask during your stay. Places are limited and prices are coming soon.
Where you’ll stay
A peaceful country estate on 10 hectares of organic farm and pine forest on the Ericeira coast, Europe’s first World Surfing Reserve, about 45 minutes from Lisbon airport. The exact address is shared with guests once they book.
Each has views over the hills, the valley and the sea, and a balcony with a hammock. You’ll have two single beds or a king bed, plus a single bed in the living area.
A panoramic practice room over the valley, used only by our group.
Set among the pines, with orange, lemon and apple trees around the farm.
A trail through the valley leads down to a quiet beach.

Good to know
Anyone who feels the need to pause. You don’t need any experience of yoga, meditation or energy work. Everything is offered gently, and you can always sit out and rest.
No. Every session is by free will. The only thing we ask is that you join the Welcome Circle on the first evening, so the group can meet.
Usually mild, with days around 15–18°C and fresh evenings. The sea is about 15°C. Bring layers, a light rain jacket and good walking shoes.
Fly into Lisbon. The house is about 45 minutes away by car. We’ll help you arrange a shared transfer or a taxi.
Good Friday and Easter Monday are holidays in much of Europe, so you may only need one or two days off. It’s also a natural moment for renewal. Many guests stay on afterwards to explore Lisbon, Sintra or the coast.
