The Circle Keepers
III edition
Mens Retreat - Training

The Circle Keepers III

Magic happens when it is witnessed—and its impact becomes eternal when it is shared.

The magic I speak of is life itself, yet more specifically, it is the alchemy that unfolds when a group of people gather in a circle.

This is not just a retreat; this is a training and a journey into the depths of healing. It is both a space to explore your own transformation and a call to rise as a guide for others.

When we gather in the safety of a circle, something extraordinary happens. In a container free of judgment, we find the courage to speak our truths, to listen deeply, and to connect to the essence of who we are. The simple yet profound acts of sharing and listening become acts of liberation—not just for ourselves but for those around us.

The circle becomes a mirror, reflecting our innermost truths and inviting us to step into integrity and authenticity. This is not just a healing experience—it’s a chance to lead from the heart, to become a keeper of the sacred space where transformation begins.

I experienced this power years ago in sharing circles. Sitting with other brothers, hearing their voices, their stories, their struggles, and joys, I discovered a deep resonance with my own soul. In their vulnerability, I found permission to feel. In their courage, I found my own. It was here that the walls I had built began to crumble, revealing a truth I had long hidden.

The Circle Keepers III invites you into this same journey—a deeper retreat and a profound training.

This is your opportunity to:

Heal at your core. Dive deep into your inner world, reconnect with your truth, and nurture the leader within.

Learn the craft. Receive the tools and guidance to create and hold circles, lead rituals, and facilitate transformative experiences in your own communities and your home.

Develop your own magic. Explore your unique style as a “circle keeper” and craft a practice that is authentic to you.

This is a call to service.

We live in a world where countless brothers are lost in silence, disconnected, and suffering. They need spaces where they can show up, be seen, and heal. And they need leaders—brothers like you—willing to step up and hold these spaces with courage, integrity, and heart.

This is not just for you; it’s for the communities you will touch, the voices you will help unlock, and the healing you will inspire.

Will you answer the call?

Join us for The Circle Keepers III, a transformative experience where you will heal, grow, and rise as a leader. Together, we will spread this work far and wide, creating ripples of change that start with us.

The time is now, my brother.

With love and unwavering belief in you,

Miguel

Temazcal (Sweat Lodge)



I am very honoured to receive during this Immersion a special guest; I respect and cherish a lot. During this time, she will share her wisdom with our Circle and a ceremony of Temazcal (Sweat Lodge).
It's a precious and unique opportunity my brothers.

The Location

Gravito - Healing Retreat Centre is a magical place, out of time, nestled in a valley in central Portugal and surrounded by acres of forest.
It is a wild place that cuts us off from the world and invites us to reconnect with the rhythm of nature and find our own rhythm.
This sacred land offers the ideal environment to go back inside and initiate this journey.
There is an incredible river and a small waterfall where it is possible to swim surrounded by this wilderness.
Accommodation is available in domes or tipis for 4 people.
A huge and magnificent geodesic dome open to nature hosts ceremonies, rituals and practices.
The place is solar powered, as is the water for the showers (which comes from the river) and invites us to understand and adopt a new way of consuming.
Dry toilets have also been created and are available.
Staying at Gravito is an unique experience that brings us back to a simple and basic way of life in a magical environment for a greater (re)connection to ourselves and to Mother Nature.

The Facilitator

Miguel Sevilhano I’m an holistic therapist since 2005, moved by curiosity, I developed the ability to heal others with my own healing.

Loving to observe the dynamics of nature, my approach is a combination of various techniques in a natural way, blending the ancient and spiritual principles of Ayurveda, with a precise vision of Osteopathy, the gentleness of Cranial-Sacral therapy and Breathwork for releasing traumas.

My work goes from 1:1 sessions to group rituals and group healing sessions. 
I facilitate also the work for the Sacred Masculine creating healthy Brotherhood.

I want to give thanks to all my teachers/mentors, who during my journey as a student have enriched me in my own healing as well as the healing of my patients.

Each course has been a reconstruction of my being.
Osteopathy
Upledger Institute for Cranial Sacral Therapy;
Dr. Ruguê and International Academy of Ayurved for Ayurveda;
Biodynamic Breathwork And Trauma Release System with Giten Tonkov;
Bioenergetics with Prem Milan;
Dr. Gabor Maté for Compassion Inquiry;
Homa and Mukto for Tantra;
Sacred Sons for “Connecting Men to there Heart” and mine as well!! .
And all the therapist that help me.
