For The Love Of Food

A Portugal retreat where mindful eating, market-to-table cooking, and guided food rituals help you rewrite your “food story” and reconnect with your body—without rules or guilt. Learn, taste, and create alongside Chef Fenna in nature’s kitchen.

Milfontes, Portugal May 12-16, 2027

Here’s how we’ll explore the Five Elements:

Ground into your body and the present moment through morning movement practices and nourishing, intentional meals. You'll return to center through yoga, stretching, expressive dance, mindful nature walks, and energy-balancing food.

Soften, release, and flow through restorative rituals, solo time, and a healing private cenote in the Ixchel Cave, a sacred, underground pool believed to have powerful energetic properties. Take a daily plunge to reset as each Villa also has pool.

Reignite the part of you that remembers who you are. Through transformative self-reflection, group coaching, and a heart-opening Mayan cacao ceremony led by a local healer, you’ll reconnect with your creativity, courage, and inner wisdom.

Expand into breath, spaciousness, and light. Through daily breathwork, intentional movement, and reflective practices beneath the jungle canopy, you’ll create space — in your lungs, your mind, and your spirit — to remember who you are beneath the armor, the noise, and the "shoulds".

This is where it all integrates. Through soul-led journaling, intention setting, and group connection, you’ll pull together the wisdom of the elements and return home to yourself — steady, open, and deeply connected to what matters most and feeling fiercely grounded in what’s next.
