The Radical Heart Retreat
“Shining from the inside out is your gift to the planet. When you feel amazing, there is no limit to what you can create.”
In the heart of surf city in Portugal, we want to invite you to the most beautiful week where you leave feeling that oh so magical heart - life is amazing and I can do anything - glow. You know, the one that team Radical Broccoli talks about all the time.
Love is the core of us. We are love, that is our essence. Our journey is to come back to who we really are so that we can create from there. Together we will go on a journey to discover this love, from our workshops, daily movement, and beautiful dinners together on the long wooden Portuguese table surrounded by wine grapes.
Feeling good is simply something that actually makes life super sweet - in all areas! Feeling good starts within and that is what this retreat is all about.
This retreat is created so that you can strengthen the most important relationship in your life – namely the one you have with yourself. You will also leave with new friendships and a beautiful community, which for us is a huge part of love.
Self-love is not only thinking loving thoughts, but also in our actions, embodying love, and choosing ourselves daily. It’s truly badass. It looks absolutely unique and different for everyone.
