TIME TO TAKE A BREATH
"In the sanctuary of retreat, we breathe deeply and return to ourselves—
embracing wellness, meditation, and the sacred pause from life's rush.
Through shared rituals, heartfelt conversations, and the joy of gathering at the table, we realign our energy, our frequency,
our vibration.
Together, in places that awaken our souls,
we call in truth, abundance, and the harmony we are meant to share.
We are all just wandering through and flowing on"
- MindCurate Retreats


Take a breath in the seductive lands of Galicia, Spain
We are "wandering through and flowing on" in Galicia—during the magical grape harvest season. This exclusive retreat invites you to embrace the art of mindful living as you connect with the rhythm of the vines. Hand-harvesting grapes is a meditative and soulful ritual rooted in tradition.
With special access to extraordinary vineyards, artisanal winemakers, and some of Spain’s most coveted Michelin-starred restaurants, La Vendimia is a journey through taste, culture, and mindful living. Awaken your senses with meditation, yoga and daily wellness rituals. Find movement on the pickleball courts, and indulge in the transformative power of Mediterranean alchemy. Meet local tastemakers in their stylish hideaways, savor the artistry of slow living, and nourish your mind-body and spirit in this highly curated experience designed for those who embrace the Mediterranean way of life.
A celebration of harvest, presence, and the heart’s deepest rhythms.
