The Slow Retreat · Mallorca edition
Tomorrow’s longevity, rooted in the Mediterranean
7–10 May 2026 · 8 spots left
Reset your nervous system.
Europe’s most innovative retreat. Powered by data, grounded in nature.
For high performers seeking clarity, recovery, and perspective.
In collaboration with trusted leaders in performance and health
Imagine this:
You wake up without rushing. You meditate, move, connect. No noise. No pressure. No notifications. Just space to breathe, feel, and come back to yourself.
Real change doesn’t come from learning more. It comes from living differently. That’s why this is an immersive program: four days to slow down, clear the noise, and focus on the practices that can reshape your wellbeing.
Science shows the body remembers what it lives. And when it remembers, it repeats. That’s how it becomes part of you, long after it’s over.
PILLARS
In sun-soaked Mallorca, we welcome those ready to pause, reset, and reconnect. Rooted in longevity science and guided by ancient rituals and modern biohacking, our four pillars help you remember how good it feels to feel good.
– sunrise breathwork and meditation align your circadian rhythm through natural red light exposure;
– cold immersion and guided cryotherapy help you build resilience;
– movement sessions, hiking, and restorative practices foster deep regulation;
– a mediterranean anti-inflammatory diet nourishes both joy and long-term health
This is recalibration –of rhythm, resilience, and self.
MOVEMENT
From hiking along coastal cliffs to breathwork and SUP at sunrise, every movement is intentional. We move to activate the body, energize the mind, build resilience, and support long-term vitality.
RECOVERY
Recovery is where transformation begins. We’ll harness the power of breath and cold exposure, while also inviting deep restoration — better sleep and the emotional safety to truly let go.
NUTRITION
Rooted in the Mediterranean diet — one of the most studied for healthy aging — our meals are anti-inflammatory, nutrient-rich, and designed to fuel joy, energy, and performance.
PRESENCE
Presence is the foundation of inner clarity. From guided meditation and breathwork to silent reflection and mindful connection, we cultivate a deeper awareness of self.
TECH & DATA
We use technology to decode how the body responds to modern life — combining real-time tracking with targeted diagnostics. The WHOOP band reflects your sleep, stress, and recovery, while baseline tests for glucose, cortisol, and inflammation reveal your internal state.
This isn’t just about rest — it’s informed repair. You’ll leave with clarity on what your body’s been trying to tell you.

THE SCHEDULE
The program is designed as a progressive journey —from disconnection to integration. We start by slowing down and grounding the body and mind, then move into gentle stimulation and physiological reprogramming, and finally close with reflection and integration. Each day activates our pillars in a purposeful rhythm that supports real transformation.

PROPERTY AND ACCOMODATIONS
Nestled in a 13th-century Mallorcan estate built by the Knights Templar, this finca is surrounded by 100 hectares of unspoiled nature —almond, olive, palm, and citrus groves. Thoughtfully restored, it blends rustic Mediterranean charm with contemporary ease: stone walls, wooden beams, and a sense of privileged privacy and calm.
The grounds open onto peaceful patios, shaded lounging areas, and a tranquil pool framed by greenery. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet drink outdoors or resting under the trees, everything here is designed to help you breathe and reset.
Here, time slows down —and so do you.
