Personal Wellness and Mindfulness Retreats in the idyllic Bazaruto Archipelago, Mozambique
Mindwise offers you the chance to have your own unique personal wellness and mindfulness retreat in beautiful Mozambique. We combine well-being and solo retreats with tailor-made holidays in Mozambique with a focus on authenticity and sustainability.
You can unwind, relax and start your inner well-being journey, overlooking the Indian Ocean with its turquoise waters.
Join us on a personal well-being and mindfulness retreat to learn how to meditate, deepen your current practice and experience the beauty, calmness and natural rhythms of Africa. From where we live, we can see the fisherman in their dhows (traditional Swahili sailing boats) glide by, hear the locals playing football on the beach when the tide is out, and see the far-off majestic sand dunes on the islands of the Bazaruto Archipelago.
Mozambique’s unspoiled beaches, relaxed vibe, turquoise waters and the warm embrace of the Indian Ocean create an idyllic setting for rejuvenating escape and meditation practice.
My mission
Hi, I’ m Gerry and it’s my mission to teach you more about mindfulness meditation and how it can help you in your daily life.
From a beautiful peaceful spot in Africa, I will take you on a journey into your own mind. Together we will explore how our thinking mind often gets in our way, creating difficulties in our lives. You can begin to relate to the world in a totally different way in this unique place to practice mindfulness.
What is Mindfulness?
You see the word mindfulness a lot these days. Perhaps you have heard that mindfulness helps with reducing everyday stress, worries and low moods. That it helps you to live more in the present moment and worry less about the future. That you can become more aware and find more peace, calmness, relaxation and stability in your life. Or that it helps you to respond in a different way to situations in your daily life instead of from your usual reactionary habits. But you still have a lot of questions.
What exactly is mindfulness? How can it help you? What can you achieve by practicing mindfulness meditation? Maybe you want to learn more about mindful meditation but are not sure how? Or perhaps you want to deepen your current meditation experience?
Struggling to find time for meditation? You're not alone
Struggling to find time for meditation? Maybe you’ve already tried mindfulness with a meditation app but gave up, feeling you have no time to meditate. Perhaps you get frustrated as your thoughts keep getting in the way. Exactly! That’s how our mind works!
Whether you are facing a career change, personal loss, or simply overwhelmed by an always-busy mind, it can be hard to find peace. But don’t worry—mindfulness can be tailored to YOU. Discover a fresh approach in a beautiful environment that fits your unique situation and helps you navigate life’s challenges with calm, clarity, and confidence. It’s time to make mindfulness work for your life.

About me - my motivation and sharings
Originally from Ireland, it has been a long life-journey to reach where I am now, with many different experiences along the way. I love to bring these experiences into my teaching. I like to take the mystery out of mindfulness and mindful meditation. There is nothing mysterious about getting to know your own mind, how it works, and learning how the thinking mind sometimes gets in our way. This can result in stress, anxiety, self-judgments and self-blame.
