The Integral Being: Portuguese Center for Mindfulness organizes mindfulness retreats in Portugal for those who want to experience the effects of mindfulness practices more deeply. These mindfulness retreats/intensives are not presented in a religious context, but rather in a secular context, similar to the work we do at Integral Being with mindfulness, which is oriented towards the therapeutic and emotional development effects of this ancient approach, currently considered a cognitive behavioral therapy.
Mindfulness retreats or intensives (in residential or non-residential format) are an opportunity to get in touch with yourself away from the daily routines and tasks that normally occupy your days. The external context created in these retreats, which take place in natural spaces, allows you to immerse yourself in serenity and inner silence through mindfulness practices and the body exercises or mindful yoga developed, dialogue, sharing, and silence. These retreats offer you the opportunity to cultivate your presence in the moment, a greater awareness of yourself, others, and the world around you – an opportunity to cultivate BEING and BEING PRESENT in each moment of your life as the whole and complete being that you are. Come embrace the moment with us, sow serenity, and reap wisdom and discernment in your life.
