The most difficult action: Sacrifice
Sacrificing is much more the path to exquisiteness and uniqueness than constant consumption, constant obligation, and going along with everything.
It is about the consumption within us, not on the outside.
The “musts” that don’t resonate with us.
The joining in without any real connection.
Refinement arises only through the most delicate selection of the very best – without judgment.
Separating the wheat from the chaff.
The rawest, purest, cleanest, simplest – is the most valuable.
The most noble.
It is what truly does you good.
What truly nourishes.
From which something healthy, unique, and sustainable can grow again.
Happiness, peace, love, lightness, joy – and whatever else you wish for.
And that requires sacrificing :
- thoughts about what others might think
- fears that do not lead us where we want to go
- opinions that do not give us what we truly need
- words that do not reflect what we wish to see in the world
- doubts that keep us from acting from our innermost truth
It’s simple, but not always comfortable.
We may embrace everything – the fears, the troubling thoughts, the opinions, the unfiltered words, and the doubts. We may learn to love them.
But refinement is born from action.
Action is what ultimately brings exquisiteness.
But action is the greatest challenge for most people.
We know much, but lack the trust to renounce, and thus to come into refinement.
We open the space for exquisiteness in our upcoming retreat BREEZE THROUGH. The refinement doesn’t only start with the journey to Portugal from November 6–10, but the moment you renounce all thoughts, fears, doubts, and judgement – and book your place.
What else you will experience in Portugal:
- Unwinding: In stillness, you can truly recognise what is happening in daily life that does not serve your exquisiteness.
- Cultural shift: From a different perspective, we can recognise a new “normal” – or rather, that there is no normal.
- Exquisite catering: Delivered through our private chef, Nicki.
- Guidance & enrichment: By connecting body and mind, learning to connect and let go, enjoy and act, open your heart and engage your mind – you can experience wonders and take pearls of wisdom for your life.
We look forward to welcoming you. Come as you are, with all your fears, doubts, and thoughts – that is our speciality.
Feel, Lead, Belong
