Living in a fast-paced society that prioritises productivity over wellbeing can be a challenging cycle to climb out of.
The layers of stress and worry can cloud your ability to connect with your intuition and purpose. At the same time filling your body with stress hormones causing risk of illness and unfulfilment.
Our thoughts and emotions influence everything we do in life. In this society we develop coping mechanisms as a survival response. However, we are seldom taught how to release these patterns of stress and fear. I am here to guide you in how to navigate your inner world so that you can build resources to live in a state of empowerment.
Do you find yourself:
-» Feeling emotionally exhausted and depleted in your daily routine
-» Lacking clarity on what really inspires you in life
-» Frequently in a state of overwhelm in the body
-» Feeling triggered regularly by occurrences in your environment
-» Trying to implement new healthy habits yet being unable to maintain them
-» Feeling a deeper sense of urgency to get onto a more fulfilling path in life
-» Carrying heavy burdens and worries that don't lead to any improvements in your life?
What if there was a way to come home to yourself?
☼ Connect with what you truly desire in life
☼ Reset your nervous system
☼ Learn how to regulate your nervous system in your daily routine
☼ Discover effective methods to navigate your subconscious stress patterns & coping mechanisms
☼ Anchor yourself in goals that fulfil your life's purpose
☼ Experience a remembering of your innate wildness and soul wisdom
And what if you could discover the resources needed to keep returning home to yourself?
Together we will:
☼ Build resilience in your nervous system so that you aren't affected as intensely by triggers
☼ Deepen your awareness of your burdened inner child parts
☼ Develop your unique leadership in line with your values
☼ Gain clarity on where to focus your energy to be most effective with your actions in areas of life that matter most to you
☼ Implement an abundant approach to life through reconnection with nature
Meet Your Guide
For most of my life I have been seeking an effective way to thrive from the inside out. I pushed myself to the breaking point trying to hustle and strive within a system that was making me unwell physically all the way down to my spirit.
I went to hell and back to find combinations of approaches that actually work and integrate them myself. Only then did I start to thrive in a way of deep inner freedom. My values define what decisions I make and how I deal with life's challenges.
I have made it my life's mission to share this Magic and bring others together in a Sanctuary to experience this. What a privilege to witness the courage and determination it takes to show up for yourself and claim your Power.
This world is desperate for your magic. You get to thrive, connect and impact those around you without those heavy burdens weighing you down. Join this community of others and let's do it together.
I look forward to co-designing a safe space for your healing while also challenging you towards your growth. Bringing highly effective trauma-informed resources to aid you in your transformation together with a powerful community of like-minded souls.

The Venue
Situated in a three hectare valley, this cozy home borders the longest river in Portugal originating from the mountains of Serra da Estrela. Located in an ecological zone, it offers a perfect retreat space for The Sanctuary. It was designed in symbiosis with nature, runs solely on solar power and with the water supplied by the land. This oasis supports us in remembering that we are a part of nature, automatically starting the process of regulating our nervous system and grounding us into who we really are authentically.
Private River Beach Waterfall & Forest
We have our own private river beach with its waterfall nearby and lush green forest hikes. Relax with a clay mud bath at the river lie in a hammock or go kayaking along the river.
Private Chef Meals
Organic & seasonal meals prepared with intention and care throughout the retreat. Grown mostly in the region includes breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack or cake and dinner. Tea coffee, fruit and nuts always available.
Communal Living
We have one bedroom with an en suite and one bathroom to share for two bedrooms. The bedrooms are spacious and have the possibility to host you with a friend or offer an area to rest and recover.
Relaxing Spaces
For some downtime in between sessions there are plenty of areas to relax and process. There are cozy communal dining spaces and chill-out nooks to grab a cup of tea, a good book or cuddle up with the retreat dog.
It’s Time To Connect With Yourself Again
With one-on-one guidance and group support, you've found a safe place to connect deeply and nurture your inner self.
“Zavira is purely amazing. The space she created was unique, transforming and empowering. It was an absolutely magical retreat. I came back recharged, more attuned to my Self and inspired with a new sense of sisterhood and connections.”
- Magda
“I will begin my review of Dr. Heinze's 5-day Power Selves Sanctuary Retreat in September 2024 by sharing that I am deeply glad that I went. I arrived for the retreat exhausted and emotional. Zavira met me where I was at without judgment and warmly welcomed me to the small circle of women doing the retreat with me. After a brief introduction, Zavira set the stage for a successful retreat by walking us through her expectations and inviting us to share any requests, needs or express any concerns at that time. She formed the retreat "container" with ease. Between sessions, I enjoyed three meals of nourishing, whole sattvic food and forged meaningful connectivity with the other attendees. The pace of the 5-day schedule was just right. I was busy enough to feel like I was getting good value for money while also receiving some (needed) down time to process and reflect. ...
