Join Emilie Reid and me for 5 nights / 6 days of yoga, meditation, and adventure in the Azores, Portugal!

Registration information is HERE.

Experience the raw and rugged beauty of “The Green Island” of São Miguel. Deepen your connection to your senses and to nature in the excellent company of like-minded travelers.

Start your morning with yoga and meditation with an ocean view. Emilie and Ilana share a practical approach to traditional practices, making them useful and usable - and frankly, more fun - to us modern humans living in the world.

Ilana teaches with equal parts reverence and delight, and might throw in some soul-searching inquiries on the “meaning of life”. A class with Emilie will leave you feeling light-hearted and connected to your body and to the Earth. Both Emilie and Ilana guide Instinctive Meditation, a way of practicing meditation that feels natural, refreshing, and revitalizing. Classes are all-levels with no prior yoga or meditation experience needed.

Throughout this adventure, Emilie and Ilana will guide you to connect with the elements, with nature, and with the beauty that exists in every moment.

The Azores are a volcanic archipelago of natural beauty, a temperate climate and plenty of outdoor activities. Truly an adventure lover's paradise, and just 5 hours from Boston and New York, these islands are known as the "Hawaii of the mid-Atlantic" and are not to be missed. You will be staying on “The Green Island" of São Miguel, home to vibrant blue volcanic lakes, black sand beaches, lush natural preserves, and panoramic cliffs. Open your senses to take in the majesty of the Azores!

On two included excursion days, you will hike (all levels) to some of the most stunning vistas on the island, soak in natural hot springs, and explore neighboring towns and beaches. You’ll have plenty of time on your two free days to relax amongst the gorgeous, peaceful grounds of our oceanfront beach resort. All meals (with the exception of 2 lunches) are included, and will be nourishing, fresh, and delicious, so that you get a true taste of Azorean fare.
