Relationships are one of the most complex aspects of the human experience—how do you fit, who is the right one, and what's next?
We’ve designed this program to bring greater clarity to your journey of relating to others, understanding your own relationship patterns, and learning what would help improve them.
You'll gain insights into choosing partners who truly align with who you are, navigating the inevitable challenges that arise in all relationships, and developing effective strategies to better cope with them. Ultimately, this journey will help you build a solid foundation for a healthier relationship with others and yourself.

daily schedule
Mornings
You wake on the first morning, greeted by the soft light of Mallorca’s mountains. Grabbing your tea, you head to the meditation hall, grounding yourself in the present moment through stillness and breath.
Afterward, you enjoy a locally sourced breakfast, either sharing relaxed conversation with fellow attendees or savoring the quiet solitude of nature.
A bell rings, calling you to your daily Qi Gong masterclass, where you move energy and awaken the body with a new form each day.
Midday
Yin Yoga brings profound relaxation, creating space for deeper reflection. Following lunch, personal time allows you to explore the surrounding landscape, journal, or simply unwind. As the afternoon settles, you gather for a guided group session, with discussions led by a PhD psychologist, exploring how to cultivate meaningful relationships.
Evenings
After dinner you can immerse in spacious calm, with plenty of options for nature walks, meditation or reading nooks. The retreat schedule flows seamlessly, with daily rhythms that guide you inward, while the natural beauty around you supports your outer journey.

Imagine mallorca
The island of Majorca, a magical gem in the midst of the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, or as I like to call it “the Hawaii of Europe”! Gorgeous beaches of all kinds for all kinds of preferences with stunning old-world architecture all infused with modern infrastructure throughout.
Any visit to this island would be special but we are taking it to the next level with carefully curated choices. From a blended perspective of a local to the island and big city New Yorker you can be certain we cover a wide spectrum of expectations and experiences, come join us to find out how.
the venue
a special Story for a special place
• A cozy house surrounded by nature on a mountainside overlooking the Mediterranean Ocean.
• A standalone Zendo meditation hall, an outdoor meditation platform and a pool with surrounding areas to sit & relax.
• There are nature hikes to explore around the mountain or down to the ocean for a swim, as well as a local town to explore.
-
In creating this retreat we had very high standards and elements to make it as we envisioned. This means we search every single retreat venue on Majorca…that is not hyperbole, we checked them ALL. None lived up to our vision in our hearts & souls until we were about to decide it wasn’t meant to be we found this venue.
We immediately were taken by its natural setting, its unpretentious, cozy vibe that still felt deliberate in all its decor choices. We booked it straight away knowing that the house and nature surroundings fit our needs but the destiny didn’t end there…
After booking we were researching more to begin planning what we could on the property only to discover there was AN ENTIRE Zendo Meditation Hall onsite we hadn’t even seen. The Universe and the island had spoken, this was the place that we were destined to bring our first collaborative retreat to.
And it is with all of that special magic and searching that we now bring to you a very unique opportunity, reserve your spot right away as accommodation is limited.
