With Angélique Verdel

Your Tour Guide & Coach: Angélique
Angélique is a trained psychotherapist and a bio-energy master (solving blockages with creativity). She has been working internationally for over 30 years as an actress and singer, voice coach and therapist.
She lives on her adopted home Island, Faial. As a trained trail guide she knows the plenty of hidden trails and places.
Angélique’s talent is to make people’s deepest longings visible with a sense of humor and lightness. She loves finding creative ways to make a desired change in life. A change that leads to more fulfillment, satisfaction and health.
Hiking
For 5 days you will hike moderate trails for approx. 3h per day through the island’s nature.
Explore small lava caves and hike jungle paths. Trek around the 400m deep Caldeira on Faial Island. Discover old water channels in a magical forest, visit the charming harbor town Horta, or see the Capelinhos Volcano. We will share insights on culture and nature. Bring a small backpack for your picnic, water, personal items, and wear good hiking shoes (!) and have a raincoat with you.
Meditation:
We live in a fast-paced world full of desires and goals. Much is beyond our control. Meditation helps create emotional stability and deeper self-awareness. Our practices enhance focus, clarity, positive emotions, and a peaceful perspective. After a brief relaxation, you’ll explore your inner self through a gentle guided meditation. This takes place in our studio and during hikes.
Vision Board:
Everyone has something special to share or experience, but without a clear vision, it can be difficult to understand what you want and how to achieve it. This lack of clarity hinders your focus and support. A vision board can help you concentrate on your goals and manifest them. By using craft supplies, magazine clippings, and more, you can create something truly magical.
Breath & Voice Coaching:
Do you feel nervous when speaking in front of an audience? Want to express yourself better or make a strong impression? Is your voice tired from talking all day at work? A good voice shows confidence and empathy. Other factors like posture, focus, breathing, thoughts, and feelings also affect communication. With your coach’s help, you’ll learn to communicate more effectively and reach your goals in a group.

Our kitchen will introduce you to the delicious Azores’ cuisine. Freshly caught Atlantic fish, beef from the island and organic vegetables. He can easily fulfill your dietary needs. Enjoy the portuguese wine or relax with a famous Portuguese espresso or a great cocktail on the terrace of your apartment or by the pool.
