Madeira Island, Portugal

March 30 - April 5, 2025

ReWild

Leave behind the noise and digital clutter during a transformative six-day journey into Madeira’s wild beauty.

Move your body under open skies, hike stunning trails, and soak in the island’s beauty. Experience untamed parts of yourself through storytelling, artistic workshops, and hands-on activities like planting and plant-based cooking.

End each day with sleep and dream practices that nurture a profound connection with your inner world.

“ReWild in Madeira is more than an escape. It’s a gift you give yourself to return home feeling focused, inspired, and equipped with practical behavior change tools for lasting change."

Take Me to Madeira!

The Location

Casa do Lanço – Verdelho is nestled in the heart of São Vicente, surrounded by the lush expanse of a 25,000m² vineyard, framed by towering mountains and the dense, ancient Laurissilva forest. This UNESCO World Heritage site, with its twisting laurel trees, ferns, and moss-covered rocks, feels like a living, breathing landscape that has remained untouched for centuries.

A 250-year-old oak stands at the center of it all, offering its steady presence to the land. The house itself blends the rustic charm of the past with modern comforts, each room leading out to a peaceful garden.

About Madeira

Just 1.5 hours by plane from Lisbon, Madeira is a quick trip that feels like a true escape. Known for its soaring cliffs, lush green landscapes, and warm, welcoming culture, it’s a place where adventure and peace exist in perfect balance. Often called the "Pearl of the Atlantic", Madeira is the kind of destination where you can hike to a waterfall in the morning, savor fresh seafood by the sea in the afternoon, and still have time to watch the sunset above the clouds. It’s accessible yet remote enough to feel like a secret place where you come to disconnect from the rush of daily life and reconnect with yourself.

Your Rewild Experience

Nature Adventures

A visit to Madeira is incomplete without a deep-dive into the rich wilderness this island has to offer. During the retreat, you will be hiking, canyoning and exploring your senses with daily nature rituals.

Embodiment Practices

You don’t just have a body, you are a body. All of life is experienced through the body, which is why you will be diving into guided somatic practices that allow the changes you want to see in your life to be felt and last.

Building Routines & Rituals

With guided journaling and habit-building practices led by your on-site behavioral-change coach, you will get an opportunity to “pimp up” your morning and evening rituals so that they support the person you wish to become.

Art & Storytelling

When was the last time you sat around a fire and told stories that light up your imagination and broaden your horizons? With community storytelling and a synesthesia workshop, we will create moments that allow the storyteller and artist in you to come alive.

Return to Traditions

Digging our hands into dirt, planting our own food, caring for the bees make plant growth possible…these are neglected practices that you can revive in your own life. With hands-on activities, we hope to inspire you to dive into sustainable traditions in your own communities.

Plant-Based Nutrition

Rewilding your body means also rewilding your plate by making your food choices more sustainable and less processed. Our on-site chefs will not only feed you delicious plant-based meals, but also teach you easy vegan recipes that are easy to reproduce back home.

Meet Your Guides

Maša Nobilo

Maša lives and breathes all things movement, sleep, and dreams. In what seems like a past life, she was an interpreter and translator glued to her office job, with an unexpressed desire to move and be more connected with nature and people around her.

Once that desire surfaced, she spent 5 years diving into different certifications of Hatha Yoga, AcroYoga, Embodied Facilitation, Sleep Therapy, and different movement practices. At the tail end of that, she left the career that no longer lit her up to fully pursue the passions that were driving her.

Today, she helps people create sustainable routines and rituals that allow them to sleep better, move more fluidly, and lead a life that is fully aligned with their core values.

You do not need to have any specific movement level before coming to the retreat. The hikes will be adapted to the group, but you do need to be comfortable with hiking and heights.

The dream practices that will be introduced by Maša are an invitation to explore your unconscious patterns through your dreams. You will be guided with journaling prompts and bedtime practices that help you enhance your dream recall and vividness.

Bring a headlamp if you own one, a rain jacket and hiking shoes that have a good grip. Bring a bathing suit as the weather might allow for a swim, and a journal for the habit-building and dream practices that you will be invited into.

No, most of the meals you will be eating at the venue are vegan, but you will have the opportunity for other types of meals in the several traditional restaurants we will visit during the retreat.
