SereneBliss
A Retreat to Slow Down, Breathe,
and be!
12-18 July 2026 | Mallorca, Spain
Limited to 16 women
In a world where the momentum is go go go, this retreat is an invitation to slow way down as we reside in a luxurious Spanish villa a world away from the hustle of the city. An opportunity for you to unplug from the world and get nourished! We will spend our days at the Son Sion retreat center in the Balearic Islands off the coast of Spain in the Mediterranean. Son Sion has been lovingly created by designer Maria Sagreras to inspire and nourish through the extraordinary abundance of the natural world.
Having designed the island’s most striking gardens, Maria turned her hands to building her own dreams on her ancestors’ land. Working with a uniquely intimate knowledge of the terrain and the wisdom handed down from her family, she has created two magical idylls for wellbeing retreats. Her love of plants guided the gardens, which are filled with scents, vibrant colors, birds and their song. They are a constant source of wonder and serenity for city dwellers longing to feel more natural. The space has been designed to provide the most peaceful, comfortable and enchanting setting for yoga and mindfulness practices.
Surrounded by landscapes that inspire peace and deep reflection, this is the summer energetic reset that will provide some much needed time re-energizing yourself. Manifestation is all about shifting energy and the theme for this retreat so get ready to unleash what is most important to you and learn the tools to birth what you most desire for yourself and for your life!
Our days will be filled with many different modalities to ground you, clear the energy that is not serving you, cultivate and activate a whole new you! With activities to connect with nature and the elements, vinyasa yoga classes, breath work journeys, meditation, and self-development workshops to pour into you the goodness your deserve.
A return to peace which is our natural state, this is what this retreat is all about. I keep hearing from women how they don’t have any time to just think and be at peace so that’s exactly what this experience brings, a beautiful and sacred pause.
In loving ourselves and making “our time” a non-negotiable we are teaching others how to love us in return. We tend to loose ourselves in the busyness of life and this pilgrimage is your time to claim your power back and set new standards.
Get ready to be catered to and surround yourself in luxurious peace in our very own Spanish villa where healing awaits. I cannot wait to share this treasure with you!

what I’ve Learned…
For years I have been going on retreats by myself for myself and each time I am so grateful I invested in my growth and made me a priority. I can truly say that I would not be where I am today if it had not been for all the retreats I attended. Each one opened me to another layer that needed to be peeled in order for me to become stronger, more resilient, courageous, loving and accepting.
If something within you desires this experience and you keep saying “someday I will make it”, nothing will change. You will just go another year wishing you had taken the leap of faith. Our someday is NOW and if your instincts are saying go, then take it as a sign that the universe is giving you a gentle nudge that this is exactly what you need in this moment in your life to accelerate you to the next level.

Testimonials

While retreat with Maria is nothing short of transformative, that is simply the beginning. Imagine a space where you are held and seen, the giver and the receiver, the lion and the lamb, the warrior and the priestess, the student and the teacher. That is the divine alchemized sacred ground that Maria has created. Like a sacred holy garden, Maria plants seeds, both known and unknown that bear fruit that ultimately becomes the medicine for the soul. But here’s the real magic… Maria is the medicine. Without her divine energy, wisdom, grace, patience and playful spirit, this kind of healing wouldn’t be possible. People ask all the time, “so what do you do at retreat?” We grow We change We transform We step into our power We laugh We Love We cry We shed our skins We surrender We trust We do it scared We see each other We allow ourselves to be seen We get lost We find ourselves It's all in the medicine. Maria is the medicine. Maria is magic.

I came into this experience skeptical and unsure if anything here would heal me. I always say I’m a tough nut to crack, but Maria truly has a gift. She brought the sparks back to these women’s eyes and back to my own. I have spent the last decade of my life in a haze, moving from one thing to the next thing to the next thing like my life is a checklist to be completed. I was so stuck and felt so dark because I never gave myself the time to process what happened to me. After this retreat I can confidently say the nut was cracked. I have never felt so alive, so much like myself, or so much love and support. If I can give one piece of advice it is this, embrace it. Take the step! Do this for you because I — through all the hesitancy — was able to do it for myself and it is the greatest gift I have ever received. I got the gift of meeting myself for the first time since I was a child. I am forever grateful for this opportunity.

Goosebumps— I didn’t think I could break any further and I resisted. I fought. I argued. I tried to stay hidden inside my shell but Maria, you took a giant fucking mallet with each exercise until that shell exploded into cosmic bits and slowly, slowly, slowly I let the love in. Loving touch, kindness, empathy, hugs, besos— I receive it! I’m not going to fight anymore. I will take it all in and hold it precious. This is the hardest work I’ve ever done and it burned, it stung, it made me feel raw and exposed, and wildly uncomfortable and I’m going to do it all again and again because I am worth it. I am worthy of love and kindness, and you taught me how to let it in. Gracias, gracias, gracias Maria. Puerto Rico is the first place I’ve ever been and I want to go to more places now and be wild and free.
