Four days for yourself – in stillness, movement, and deep connection
Reload Retreat – Reconnect with your Soul
Reload Retreat
Where is your OFF button?
Always “on”? That’s exhausting. At the Seeds of Silence Reload Retreat in Portugal, you get to let go of everything. No to-do lists. No obligations. Instead: nourishing meals, calming breathwork, movement, deep coaching, and space just for you.
For four days, we guide you through a gentle, transformative experience. Through yoga, breathwork, NLP, and soul coaching, you’ll return to the power of your soul.
Together, we’ll explore:
- Who are you – beyond roles, expectations, or habits?
- What holds you back from fully embracing yourself?
- Which parts of you deserve softness and acknowledgment?
A retreat that unites body, mind, and soul.

Rediscover yourself and your inner parts
We’re all made up of different parts. Sometimes they work together, sometimes they clash. During this retreat, you’ll get to know your inner parts and build a loving relationship between them – based on recognition, understanding, and trust.
Through NLP, soul coaching, and reflection, you’ll discover:
- How old patterns unconsciously steer you
- How to gently choose who you truly are
- How to anchor new intentions into your daily life

Daily Schedule
Reload Retreat Program
During this four-day retreat, we follow the natural rhythm of the day: begin with breath and movement, dive into self-reflection in the afternoon, and release at sunset. Each phase supports your process of reconnection, transformation, and integration.
Start & End
Arrival (May 31):
- Warm welcome, introductions, and setting shared intentions
Departure (June 4):
- Morning session & closing brunch – ending with softness and clarity
Morning – Awakening in Stillness
Your day begins in silence, with space for yourself.
- Yoga – gentle movements to release tension and restore energy
- Breathwork – conscious breathing to reconnect deeply with yourself
- Setting Intentions – creating clarity around what you want from your day
These mornings bring clarity, lightness, and a calm focus for the rest of the day.
Afternoon – Self-Awareness & Deepening
After a nourishing brunch, it’s time for coaching, reflection, and soul work.
- NLP & Coaching – insights into unconscious patterns, inner parts, and identity
- Moments of Reflection – space to integrate insights, either individually or in groups
- Free Time – relax by the pool, explore nature by e-bike, or simply be
These afternoons are meant to expand your awareness and help you drop into yourself.
Evening – Letting Go & Transformation
The day ends in softness.
- Healing Rituals – creating space for what your soul truly needs
- Energetic Work – releasing old patterns and anchoring new intentions
- Soul Ceremonies – renewal, trust, and deep connection to your true self
These evenings are both transformational and healing – they help you let go and choose a new way of being.
Thank you so much for the wonderful time. You gave me fantastic lessons and valuable insights. A thousand thanks and much love. I look forward to coming back again!
A piece of heaven on earth. Truly! If you’re looking for a retreat on a small scale (6 rooms) on a beautiful spot with super healthy ànd delicious food, this is the place to be. I’ve done a few retreats, this is the best one. Cindy is a wonderful host: wise, strong and just lovely, as is her staff. I’ve experienced a retreat to remember and cherish. Allow yourself to enjoy this!
What a beautiful, peaceful place! I followed the small group yoga retreat and could relax completely thanks to hostess Cindy’s inspiring classes and her warm personality. With her eye for detail, she transforms this property into an oasis of peace where you lack nothing. From the many Buddha statues over the delicious vegetarian dishes to the extensive choice of nooks to get cozy in the sun with a book: this place has everything to boost your whole being and return home fully recharged. Wonderful, healing, transformative experience. Thank you Cindy & team!
What a wonderful place to just let go of everything… the fun yoga and breathwork classes, the beautiful, serene surroundings, the good care of Cindy and her team make you feel away from it all and yet at home. The brunch is truly indescribable, looks like a picture and is sooo delicious… The massage was the icing on the cake. A gift to myself…. Till next year 😉
From the moment I came through the gate of Seeds of Silence, I was flooded with a very pleasant feeling of peace and warmth. The journey I have been on has been fantastic and life-changing for me. I could not have dreamt this beforehand. The guidance and attention to me as a human being has been heartwarming and I will never forget. Each and every one of you are truly amazing!
I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from this yoga retreat since it was my first time trying something like this. However, after 5 days at this oasis of love and tranquility, I can only say that I couldn’t have made a better choice. Cindy and her team went above and beyond from the start to make everyone feel at home and provided with all the luxuries. You feel welcome and can fully focus on relaxing. If I could, I would give this experience 6 out of 5 stars.
Seeds of Silence in one word: Abundance!! With a capital A! What an amazing retreat. This place simply breathes abundance! Delicious food, beautiful corners to retreat in the stunning garden, intense sessions: breathwork, yoga, tai chi, qigong, sound healing. Cindy has poured so much love into this place, you can feel it, taste it, see it, experience it! Every detail is taken care of! This retreat and the impact it had will stay with me for a long time. I’m very grateful that Seeds of Silence came into my life! A layer of my onion has remained in Portugal. Thank you very, very, very much, Cindy!
A wonderful experience that I highly recommend if you want to find yourself again and rediscover your inner strength! The top quality coaching, the healing yoga and breathwork, the peace and relaxation,… and not to mention the food is very very good.
Seeds of Silence is a piece of paradise in the Algarve. You are welcomed with so much love. Cindy and her team make sure you will not lack anything: healthy food for body and mind, and yoga, breathwork and other workshops of top quality. Pure indulgence! I will return here!
The gift of the Seeds of Silence Small Group retreat to myself is one of the best things I have done in my life. I have been on many retreats around the world but what Cindy has created here is both nurturing and nourishing for the body and soul. The path to return to this sanctuary in a beautiful part of Portugal will remain a constant in my life.
What I experienced during the Small Group Retreat is indescribable. I went through such a tough period in late 2022, early 2023, and I finally found myself again after a week at Seeds of Silence, thanks to Cindy’s amazing work and the soothing conversations with the people who were there. I am truly ‘back in my own shoes’ now, and knowing where I come from, I am really proud of myself!
