GAYA LIVING LAB
LISBON
Co-creating personal transformation
Born out of a shared vision to develop a coliving laboratory, Gaya Living Lab cultivates and accelerates personal growth and authenticity into a series of experimental immersions that invites us to dream, to play and to manifest. This inaugural experience is a welcome call for us to begin planting the seeds towards a collective and empowered future.
We invite you to a three-day gathering of like-minded, curious individuals who seek personal transformation through the power of collective wisdom and knowledge sharing.
We´ll guide, support, and teach one another while staying open to fresh playful perspectives and collective insights.
Over the course of three days, you’ll learn from one another and weave the mind, body and spirit with yoga, breathwork, massage, live music, sound healing, ecstatic dance, talks, wellbeing workshops and a mushroom day journey.
Our first edition is all about play and inner transformation.
Our place is set in a calm and discreet natural reserve 1.5 hours south of Lisbon. There will be vegetarian nourishment and a small art market with unique accessories and sacred objects available for purchase and handmade with love by our community.
