Set on the lush island of Vieques, Puerto Rico, Finca Victoria is a peaceful sanctuary surrounded by tropical gardens, where Ayurvedic living is woven into the experience through nourishing meals, thoughtful spaces, and a deep connection to nature.
Holding Light & Shadow is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and embrace all the parts of who you are.
Rooted in yoga and Ayurveda, this six-day experience explores the balance between light and shadow, creating space for reflection, self-compassion, and a deeper understanding of ourselves. Rather than striving to become someone new, we are invited to meet ourselves as we are, with greater awareness and acceptance.
Each day unfolds at a gentle, intentional pace, with yoga, meditation, nourishing Ayurvedic meals, and time for rest and integration.
Surrounded by the natural beauty of Vieques, you'll have space to connect with others, explore the island, or simply enjoy moments of stillness.
Our hope is that you leave feeling more grounded, present, and connected, carrying a little of that balance with you long after your time on the island.
You're feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or simply exhausted from the demands of everyday life.
You've spent so much time caring for others, meeting expectations, or managing responsibilities that you've lost touch with your own needs.
You're navigating a period of change, feeling stuck, or longing for a greater sense of purpose and fulfillment.
You're craving time to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself without the pressure of having to do or achieve anything.
