Does This Sound Like You?
You’re someone who values your health and well-being, but no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to stay on top of it all. You juggle a busy schedule, with work, family and social obligations leaving you with little time to focus on your own needs.
You’re frequently fighting fatigue, struggling to get through the day, feeling like you’re always on the go. And when night falls, you finally try to rest, but your mind won’t stop worrying about things you can’t control.
You’ve tried to make changes, but stress and overwhelm seem to sabotage your efforts. Let’s face it, it’s not easy to prioritise yourself when the demands of life feel never-ending. You know deep down that something has to give, but where do you even start?
Right Now…
Right now, you’re probably craving clarity, a renewed sense of energy, and a solution to this unrelenting stress that’s been holding you back. The good news? You don’t have to face this alone, and relief is closer than you think.
What would it mean to you if you could wake up each morning feeling rested, with a clear, calm mind. Imagine moving through each day with ease, taking care of everything without the constant strain. Enjoying healthy foods that nourish your body in ways that leave you energized and vibrant.
Picture yourself feeling fully alive, physically, mentally, and emotionally, restored to a place of balance and peace.
The Cuisine
A Culinary Journey Rooted in Nourishment and Flavour
At our retreats, food is more than just a meal—it’s an experience that nurtures both body and soul. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted to bring you a vibrant fusion of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, Mediterranean flavours, and mindful preparation, ensuring every bite is as nutritious as it is delicious.
Our talented chef, Filippo, brings his deep passion and expertise to every plate, creating meals that celebrate the beauty of wholesome, seasonal ingredients. With a background in fine dining and a love for slow, intentional cooking, Filippo curates a menu that not only delights the senses but also supports well-being and vitality.
Each day begins with a nourishing breakfast featuring fresh fruits, artisanal breads, and wholesome, locally inspired creations. Lunch and dinner showcase an exquisite selection of balanced, flavour-full dishes—from vibrant vegetable medleys and fragrant herbs to perfectly cooked proteins and indulgent yet healthy treats.
For those joining us at the Monchique Retreat, Filippo leads hands-on cooking workshops, where you will learn how to prepare delectable, organic meals while embracing the rich traditions of Mediterranean cuisine. These interactive sessions provide an opportunity to connect with food in a meaningful way, deepening the experience of nourishment and joy.
At the Carvoeiro Retreat, you can simply relax and savour Filippo’s carefully curated meals, enjoying every thoughtfully prepared dish as part of your journey toward restoration and renewal. And of course, no meal is complete without a touch of sweetness. Whether it’s a naturally sweetened treat or a decadent dessert, every dish is made with love, intention, and a respect for balance.
With a focus on simplicity, quality, and the art of slow food, our cuisine invites you to slow down, savour every bite, and embrace the deep connection between food, well-being, and joyful living.
(Menus can be customized to accommodate dietary needs and preferences, ensuring every guest enjoys a fulfilling and satisfying culinary experience.)

meet Louise
Tyrrell
Louise is a renowned teacher and speaker who blends holistic therapies to help individuals relieve stress, regain confidence, and achieve lasting well-being.
After a life-altering accident in her 20s, Louise spent a year undergoing painful medical treatment for back, hip, and neck injuries. Unable to work and told spinal surgery was her only option, she prayed for another way. The next day, a yoga class flyer arrived at her door—a moment that changed everything.
Barely able to walk, she crawled into her first session but was amazed at how much better she felt by the end. As she continued practicing yoga, her body healed. When she returned to her surgeon, he reviewed her MRI report and simply said, “Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it.”
Inspired by her transformation, Louise left her 13-year corporate career to become a yoga teacher and in 1999 founded one of Ireland’s first Holistic Clinics.
Having studied with personal development pioneers like Dr Wayne Dyer, Dr Deepak Chopra, and Eckhart Tolle, she now dedicates her life to helping others regain the strength and confidence to enjoy a healthy, stress-free life, naturally.
Filippo is a passionate Italian chef who creates nourishing, sustainably sourced dishes that delight the senses and promote well-being.
meet Filippo
Omiccioli
Growing up in Italy, Filippo, like many, struggled with an unhealthy relationship with food, experiencing weight fluctuations and declining energy, vitality, and mental well-being.
His culinary journey began in a prestigious 4-star hotel, later leading him to one of Italy’s top seasonal restaurants. Initially specialising in fish, he soon realised the importance of balanced meals and spent seven years refining his craft before embarking on a transformative journey around the world.
Travelling and volunteering, he discovered the true value of food—and the often-overlooked ingredient: time. Returning home, he embraced goat farming and cheese-making before stepping back into the kitchen with a new purpose.
Now, he shares his passion for food as a source of nourishment, crafting meals that feed not just the body but the soul.

✔️ You’re ready to prioritise your well-being and take time for yourself.
✔️ You want to relieve stress, ease pain, and restore your energy naturally.

✔️ You enjoy connecting with like-minded people in a supportive environment.
