'Living With Decadence.'

A guide to a creative, healthy lifestyle without denial.

Monte Rosa, Algarve, Portugal.


Courses currently being planned for Spring/Summer 2007

The Course.

This popular course is designed for the professional with a busy lifestyle who wishes to enhance it with better health and more creative energy. There is nothing esoteric or ascetic about this course. It doesn't ask you to master any rigid disciplines or to deny yourself the pleasures you enjoy. It does invite you to spend nine thoroughly indulgent days with like-minded people, eating excellent food, drinking fine wine and participating in informal courses which are relaxing, energising and entertaining.
By the end of the course you will feel refreshed, full of energy and ready to make changes to your life when you return home that will make it more rewarding and enjoyable.

You will be picked up from Faro airport on a Saturday and brought to our retreat at Monte Rosa, on the Algarve, Portugal where you will spend an easy-going weekend getting to know each other, your course tutors and exploring your beautiful new surroundings.
On the Monday you will begin a seven day program of courses, all of which are designed to ease you into greater autonomy in your choices about how you care for yourself and how you enjoy your life.
Particular emphasis will be put on dealing with stress which is often self-generated and can easily be eliminated or at least dissipated by simple techniques.
You will start each day learning basic Yoga and relaxation techniques with Dani Redmonds. Her special style of teaching has proved to be very successful as it is designed to show you how simple the process of relaxation is with the minimum of effort and discipline.
You will then enjoy a buffet style breakfast prepared by our own chefs with fresh local produce and organic where possible.
After breakfast you will participate is casual talks and workshops with Tom and Linda Wilson on nutrition, massage, stress-control and a variety of other healing techniques including running through "If it ain't easy," Tom's excellent guide to simple exercises and methods to attain good health and fitness with the minimum of effort. They will also be available for individual treatments pertaining to any specific health issues you may have.
We also bring in guest speakers to give talks on other areas and issues that will enhance your course including the Bowen Technique, massage, habit breaking and mindset control.
A delicious lunch will then be served in the courtyard, once again prepared by our own chefs.
After lunch you will be invited to explore your imaginative powers in a playful game-like, integrated arts workshop with creativity specialist, Dianne Ferrari.
Absolutely no previous experience is necessary for the course and you are always free to take a breather from any activity if you want some time out.
In the evenings we serve a long dinner either in the courtyard or in the restaurant.
The course is fully inclusive including all transportation (airport pickups), professional tuition, meals, all drinks and accommodation. All food served is organic where possible with an emphasis on a healthy but not obsessive diet. Special dietary requirements can be catered for by prior arrangement.
