Testimonials
Hear from our community! These are testimonials from those who’ve joined us on the journey of reconnection, ReLOVE, mindful and sustainable living.
What a sacred, creative and nourishing home you have found, tended, created and shared. I am blessed to have shared this valley with the birds, insects, animals, flowers, trees, elements, rain and sunshine. I will treasure this time always.
Thank you for the good energy today and the beautiful space. The movement, dancing and walking through the round space was especially lovely. It truly felt like an open and safe space that was carried beautifully.
It has been such a blessing to experience all the love and magic you have to offer. To enjoy your wonderful and loving energy in depth has planted significant seeds in my healing journey. There are not enough words to describe my deep gratitude and love. Thanks to you and Justin for creating a space dedicated for love and beautiful intentions.
I loved the variety of the sessions. The build-up with the breathwork on the day after arrival was perfect. I loved the different themes: the chakras, the movement with senses, the drawing. Everything was perfect, and I noticed you sensed what I needed each day. Also the journaling prompts were perfect, one day I didn’t have them and I missed them. It was a good way of being held.
I mentioned how my fire had dwindled down to a tea light that is struggling to stay alight. I feel fire in my belly again and it’s gonna rage! I’m ready to go again, thanks to you. Your support and encouragement has massively helped me to want to start rebuilding the framework. You are/have such a beautiful soul and so does Portugal. Truly life affirming. P.S My bath under the stars will go down in history. That was one of the most ‘perfect’ moments I’ve ever experienced.
Workwise, it was exactly what we wanted. Over our two week stay we worked with pallets and created the walls of a round house. These were then stuffed with straw, coated in chicken wire and given 2 layers of cob (can’t claim all the credit for the cobbing, there was a big ‘cob party’ to get most of this done). Aside from the building there was also opportunity to get involved in gardening and other bits and pieces.
They grow all sorts of fruit and veg and have a huge array of off grid systems in place of which they are very knowledgeable.
