PORTUGAL YOGA RETREAT

MAY 19 – 24, 2025

    

 

    

 

CASTLES, COASTLINE, CONNECTION

Imagine a trip where you don’t need a vacation from your vacation… Where you actually feel rejuvenated instead of exhausted aftward, where you’re actually EXCITED to go back to your life at the end because you feel so refreshed. Imagine a trip where you feel MORE like YOURSELF, where you feel seen and make new lifelong friends… This is what you can expect on our Portugal Yoga Retreat.

Yoga plus a stunning coastline with the the adorably quaint town of Ericeira, Portugal all mixed together. This retreat offers amazing food, castles, scenery, hikes, wine… what more could you want on a yoga retreat!? 

Oh amazing people to share it with! DONE. 

Imagine yourself in Ericeira, Portugal, where the rugged coastline meets the deep blue Atlantic Ocean, and the charming streets of this adorable town that used to be a historic fishing village now boasts cafes and amazing restaurants. Now imagine sharing this experience with others who also want meaningful and heartfelt conversations, to move their bodies every day, eat amazing food, hike along the coast and explore the super cute town. This is what our Portugal Yoga Retreat is all about. 

This place just invites you to slow down and breathe. This retreat is all about soul-nourishing enjoyment in Portugal!

I’ve been fortunate to join in on 3 retreats so far (Costa Rica, Morocco, Bali). This woman, Lauren, yoga instructor, entrepreneur, (many more ‘hats’ to add) will lead you on the most transformative experience -I guarantee it.

The Experience

  • Daily Yoga & Meditation: Start the day with movement! If you haven’t enjoyed Lauren’s signature soulful but super fun yoga sessions, you’re in for a treat! Classes are tailored to all levels, ensuring everyone feels supported and empowered.

  • Scenic Coastal Walks: Wander along the breathtaking cliffs of Ericeira, feel the fresh ocean breeze on your skin, and let the sound of the waves soothe your soul. Connect deeply with nature and yourself.

  • Exploration of Sintra’s Castles: Inner princess vibes come out as we check out the enchanting palaces and castles of Sintra, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore the mystical landscapes that have inspired countless legends.

  • Wine Tasting in Local Vineyards: Let’s get a little loose. Giggles galore as we take in the rich flavors of Portuguese wines as we visit local vineyards. Learn about the region’s winemaking traditions.

  • Unstructured Time to Just Be: Sometimes, the best moments are those of quiet reflection or spontaneous laughter with new friends. Enjoy our rooftop terrace, lounge areas and coffee breaks.

Lauren is one of those women you meet and you just go: d a m n. She has so much fire within her, and she exudes that into the world to help curate her dream life, and to help others do that for themselves. She is another woman who really embodies the narrative of lifting others while we climb. I saw so much of the mantras I hold dear to my heart reflected back in hers. Self love. Growth. Persistence. Celebration of self + others. Divine femininity. She embodies all of this and so much more…

“A six-day yoga retreat with Lauren Rudick – the twinkly eyed Canadian renowned for her practical and light-hearted approach to the discipline promised everything I could of wished for. Meditation, yoga and travel in a city bursting with magic and mystery. There was also a chance of meeting ten other women with the same interests, who like me were on a mission to find more balance in their lives. I had no idea what the journey would entail but this was the challenge. Instinct told me to take a leap of faith… ….Lauren’s main goal is to practice love while practicing yoga – something she radiates in every form from the moment she wakes up in the morning – and to push your-self without punishing yourself.”
