He connects this practice to the mission of Neos: creating Heaven on Earth by doing this healing work in community.

It explains the one true entry requirement for joining Neos: a willingness to do inner, shadow work and take full responsibility for one's inner life, rather than any personality type, wealth, or spiritual résumé. It frames Neos as a 'crucible for transformation' aimed at cultivating the 'New Human.'

It explains the deeper 'why' behind Neos: that humanity has forgotten its true nature of oneness, and that Neos exists to help people wake up from the dream of separation rather than simply to offer rest or an eco-village lifestyle.

It introduces the idea of a 'Third Way' that unites science and spirituality, and announces Neos's first retreat and upcoming opening.

Vincent reflects on his experience at the ChangeNOW sustainability conference in Paris, arguing that real change must start from within rather than external solutions. He explains neoslife's mission to help people remember their true nature as consciousness, and announces a special investor retreat and a podcast appearance.

It explains the 'waking up' concept through the metaphor of never taking off a VR headset, describing how our body/mind is just an interface for the eternal awareness we truly are, and why realizing this reduces suffering and enables a life of higher purpose. It also ties this philosophy to neoslife's mission and mentions the land being acquired and an upcoming investor retreat.

It explores the idea of 'human 2.0' — a person who has experienced that they are not their mind, identity or body but a fragment of a universal 'I' or consciousness, contrasted with 'human 1.0' (unconscious, mind-driven living) and 'human 1.5' (doing inner work but still suffering).

Vincent reflects on the purpose of life, arguing that we are eternal consciousness temporarily experiencing life through a body, and that chasing external things like money, business or status can never bring true fulfillment. He connects this reflection to the upcoming 'Awaken to Self' event, which is designed to help people experientially realize who they truly are.

Vincent explores humanity's crossroads between an unconscious path of ego, control and separation versus a conscious path of awakening, unity and harmony. He discusses how family trauma, lack of individuation and birth trauma keep us as reactive victims, and how shifting to full responsibility as empowered creators transforms both self and world.

You can expect to become alive and whole in who you truly are, show up authentically and powerfully with others, align with your true purpose, and create a life you love that flows and is abundant for you - moving through themes like 'From Victim to Love,' 'From Perpetrator to Power,' and 'From Fear to Play.'

These women's retreats offer sacred, ceremonial practices like meditation, cacao ceremonies, dance, drumming, and heart-sharing by the fire, aimed at reclaiming feminine energy, healing, and sisterhood. The intention is regeneration, self-reflection, blissful nature connection, and reigniting an inner 'golden flame' among women.

Participants can deepen self-love, learn to trust the body's intelligence and energy field, embody balanced masculine and feminine energy, and break cycles of nervous system dysregulation and burnout.

Attendees can expect a 2-3 hour transmission and Q&A with Zach Bush, an integrative meditation and sound healing journey with Karen Birch and Efia, a devotional music journey with Arian Sarrafan and Javier Karua, plus the chance to connect with the Neos land and stars.

Retreats and experiences at Neos weave together all twelve categories across the Self, Relational, and Environmental dimensions rather than focusing on just one aspect like spirituality or permaculture, offering practices in holistic health, relational dynamics, food systems, and more.

Depending on the retreat, you can expect deep self-discovery and healing, embodiment of divine feminine/masculine energies, sound and vibrational healing practices, silent inner clarity through fasting and detox, or creative and artistic exploration inspired by slow living.

You'll get daily spaciousness to explore writing, painting, or any artistic form that calls to you, alongside journaling, deep listening, and inner exploration. The retreat also includes tea ceremonies, cacao and blue lotus rituals, eastern somatic practices, live devotional music, and access to 1000 acres of land and lakes for deep renewal.

At Halo you can relax at your own pace, share a family-style meal, take a nature walk, join free-flow sessions like movement classes, tea ceremonies or talks on regeneration, and unwind in the evening with live music and fire—all while connecting deeply with the Neos community.

Yutori offers 10 uninterrupted days in a lightly-guided but self-directed creative container, with time for writing, painting, sound, or any art form that calls to you.

Through the program's retreats you receive a ceremonial Initiation into the energetic blueprint of the Feminine & Masculine Source Consciousness, plus embodiment practices and sacred ceremonies honouring the empowered feminine and masculine within you. Retreat attendees can then continue with monthly sessions and community circles to integrate the healing and transformation over a full year.

The retreat facilitates opening into expansive bliss, harnessing awareness, nourishing body and soul, and dissolving into oneness with nature and the stars. It includes cacao and sound ceremonies, self-care and nature rituals, heart-sharing circles, and time for personal reflection and creative reconnection.

Yutori offers 10 uninterrupted days in a gently held container for self-directed creative practice—writing, painting, sound, or movement—supported by anchor points like medicine tea ceremonies, eastern-inspired somatic practices, and collective silence. Rather than a packed program, it provides spaciousness and presence so your own art and creative process can breathe and re-emerge.

The program promises true freedom through peace of mind, joy and love, along with an initiation experience where your sense of self dissolves and you merge with universal consciousness, gaining clarity and certainty to make profound life changes. It combines deep nature connection, ascension practices, and dharma alignment sessions over a week, followed by 8 weeks of online integration support.

Depending on the retreat chosen, offerings range from reawakening to your true nature through ceremony (The Awakening Retreat), embodying divine feminine/masculine co-creator empowerment (Mastery 1), exploring the artist & muse archetype through tea ceremony and creative practice (Yutori), profound beauty and bliss through Diné-inspired ceremonies (The Beauty Way), full-spectrum yogic transformation (Moksha), or a deep personal/collective journey through visual arts and movement (In)Fluxo).

Participants receive dream-weaving sessions for creative visioning, energetic self-love rituals using the five elements and cervix breathing, monthly temples exploring the Christos-Sophia Blueprint, and 'Inner Wild' ceremonies including the Winter Solstice, all woven together with sisterhood and cacao ceremony.

Programs are designed to support self-mastery, healing through sacred ceremonies, and New Earth leadership skills, helping participants reskill in self, relational, and environmental dimensions to become agents of regenerative change.

Mornings and evenings offer nature experiences like yoga under an ancient olive tree, lake swims, and walks to sacred sites like dolmens and an obelisk.

During the life-changing weekend you'll experience neoslife and the estate directly, and understand for yourself what 'waking up' means and why it could change the world.

According to the issue, participants can gain clarity of who they are and why they're alive, freedom to be unconditionally themselves, courage to live fully, freedom from fear/doubt/anxiety, and a lifelong supportive community.

The promise is to understand who you are, why you are here, and what you truly want — a reunion with your true self ('I') that Vincent calls more beautiful than anything previously experienced.

The 'Awaken to Self' experience aims to help you know with more certainty than knowing your own name that you are pure consciousness, not just your mind and body. It also helps ground that realization into everyday life so you can live from love, presence and gratitude rather than fear, scarcity and ego.

The 'awaken to self' journey promises the chance to experience your higher self and have one of the most profound experiences of your life, helping you connect deeper with the truth that heaven surrounds us in every moment.

Neos is located 75 minutes east of Lisbon in Alentejo, a rural, wild, and romantic region of Portugal, about 20 minutes from Montemor-o-Novo, an artistic centre with cooperative and alternative community culture. Further location details are shared once you've booked a visit via their booking platform.

The Neos center sits on 1000 acres of nature with a huge majestic lake, located just over an hour from Lisbon, Portugal.

Neos Center is in Alentejo, Portugal, offering heart-expanding views across 500 hectares (also described as 1000 acres) of nature, including lakes to swim in, only about a 75-minute car journey from Lisbon International Airport.

The retreat takes place at Neos Center in Alentejo, Portugal, on 500 hectares (1000 acres) of land with lakes to explore, and it's about a 75-minute car journey from Lisbon International Airport.

The venue sits on 1000 acres of secluded nature in Alentejo, Portugal, just 75 minutes east of Lisbon's international airport.

The neos·center estate is located in Alentejo, Portugal, about 75 minutes from Lisbon, and spans 1000 acres of nature including a large lake, with accommodation for 32–38 people.

It's a 410 ha (with existing buildings measured at 420 ha) piece of land in Alentejo, Portugal, about 75 minutes from Lisbon airport. It's 2km wide and 3.1km long, with hill chains, a dam, and an altitude difference of 100m from peak to river valley.

Because the world is visibly digressing—rising depression, loneliness, war, and inequality—while AI and robotics threaten to economically replace most humans under systems not designed with their freedom in mind. Vincent believes only a shift in consciousness, not political or technological fixes, can turn this around.

Neos needs to repay a bridge loan by early August, so only 8 days remain to invest at exceptional land value before masterplanning with EDSA begins in August and lot prices rise to their premium value.

At the end of July, Neos has to pay back bridge loans to its lenders, so this month is the last chance to become a co-owner at the current value—after July, reservation prices will rise and the land area per plot will shrink.

There are less than two weeks left for the final deadline to acquire the land, and it remains uncertain whether the financing will come together in time.

He believes technology (especially AI) is advancing exponentially while human consciousness has stagnated, and points to events like the WHO pandemic treaty as signs of a move toward totalitarian control; he estimates we have only a few years, possibly until 2027, before reaching a point of no return.

Vincent describes humanity as living in an 'age of ignorance,' stuck in ego, competition and disconnection, which is driving family breakdown, fear-based media, and canceling of dissenting voices. He believes raising consciousness, not technology, is the only way to move humanity out of this dystopian trajectory.

Vincent frames humanity as being at a crossroads between an old, unevolved path of ego, division and control, and a new path of awakening and unity — suggesting individual transformation is urgently needed since, as each person shifts from victim to creator, the world itself transforms from animosity to harmony.

You can email connect@neos.life directly or use the contact form on the site; Karen and Vincent look forward to being in touch soon.

The best way to get started is via the AI chat agent on the site (bottom right corner), which answers most questions and redirects unresolved ideas or proposals to the team. You can also join their app, join a Neos Experience retreat, subscribe to their Substack, or follow them on Instagram to connect further.

You can register your interest directly through the page to book a session or mentorship with Karen.

You can go to bookings to arrange 1:1 healing sessions, see full details on Karen's offerings, or contact Neos directly to enquire about medicine ceremony dates or other treatments like breathwork, bodywork, and massage.

The page points visitors to explore the vision, reserve a house, discover the Neos Center, or watch 'The Essence of Neos' to see the village come alive.

The best way to connect at this stage is by joining a Neos Experience Retreat, which allows in-person time on the land to explore alignment as the project moves into its next chapter. Karen and Vincent note that many prior email enquiries didn't get the response they deserved while they stabilized operations, so the retreat is now the recommended path.

The village is envisioned as part of a transformative ecosystem across 1000 acres, combining wellness and consciousness expansion, regenerative education, and nature-based living, with event spaces, gardens, and residential community areas.

The page highlights a Lakeside Cluster houses reservation program as part of the village, alongside the broader vision of a conscious village in Portugal's Alentejo.

Neos Village spans 158 hectares with 144 units, one of the lowest densities of any comparably sized development, keeping nature and wildlife intact. It sits alongside a world-class healing and transformation center, together covering 410 hectares, with the North side hosting the Center, the South side the Village units, and a lake between them.

The full masterplan will show natural features, roads, community spaces, a kids project, wellbeing and educational/healing facilities, housing clusters, and an equestrian center. It will comprise 150-200 property units whose owners are selected based on alignment with the vision.

Planned components include a healing center led by Dr. Nader Butto, a co-working/creation center, a meditation center, a school, an academy on mind-body-soul integration, a resort and residences for about 1,000 people, and a regenerative/permaculture farm that sustains the village with its own water and energy.

This issue doesn't cover Neos investment details; instead it notes that joining the gathering helps its facilitator, Karen, continue building The New Earth School, a not-for-profit educational organisation, with more info at www.thenewearthschool.org.

Details are in this newsletter issue itself, and you can email connect@neos.life to schedule a call to talk through investment options before the July 31st deadline.

Full details are in the Home-Owner Deck, alongside the Attunement Doc (to check cultural alignment) and the Funding Codex created for May's first round, some of which still applies for July.

You can find the investment deck, 1-pager, newsletters, and retreat programs at neos.life/links, and connect directly with Karen and Vincent if interested in investing or joining.

Interested potential investors can fill out the form at ir.neolsife.com to be considered for the April 10-14 experience.

Yes, the program offers deep connection and support through group coaching, enquiry, sharing, and between-session heart sharing, alongside group energy clearing, retrieval and transmissions to provide an energetic foundation for the work.

Yes, all packages include aftercare through group integration sessions and 1:1 coaching, plus an 8-week online integration program with weekly 1.5 hour group spaces with mentors and a private community app channel.

The issue points to the 'awaken to self' journey/experience as a guided way to help you move from unconscious reactivity toward awakening and connecting with your higher self, referenced at the end of the article via a password-protected link.

In May 2025 the Center opened with Stage One, following a light refurbishment of the existing hotel, and it will continue through a stage-by-stage refurbishment from 2025-30, eventually including a ceremonial dome and advanced healing and wellbeing spaces.

From the end of July onwards, Neos is officially open to hotel guests for well-being stays, with a booking platform going live at the end of the month.

Yes, the purchase contract for the land was signed on April 2nd two years prior to this issue, and Vincent and Karen have since spent ten months living and working on the land.

Not yet — as of this issue, they are still praying that full financing comes together this month, with the final deadline to acquire the land less than two weeks away and the outcome uncertain.

Yes, on 2/4/24 the promissory purchase contract was signed to acquire the estate that is becoming neoslife, five months after first finding the land.

Not yet finalized—Vincent describes it as 'a beautiful piece of land' neoslife is acquiring, and he just returned from his sixth visit, sharing an unedited video of the estate including its ostriches, cows, sheep, and brown-tinted water from recent rains.

The land already features accommodation designed as a cosy wellbeing space, a spacious restaurant and professional kitchen, indoor spaces for yoga and lounging by the fire, and a majestic lake with hilltop views for hiking, biking, swimming and paddle boarding.

The retreat description mentions the land includes 1000 acres (also cited as 500 hectares) with lakes to swim in and luxurious chill-out and practice spaces. It notes that through 2025-2027 the space will continue to upgrade, eventually offering a full spa and a unique ceremonial dome.

The land is operational with its own drinking water sources, several water bodies including a dam, 170 cows and other animals, cork trees, existing buildings with 19 bedrooms plus a restaurant and social spaces (currently used for hunting tourism), agricultural equipment, and even its own airplane landing strip.

This issue does not mention Skai; it focuses solely on the Halo monthly community weekend event.

This issue does not mention Skai; it instead introduces filmmaker Nik Tenney, who created the film 'The Essence of Neos' after meeting Karen and Vincent on the Earth One Atlantic Crossing.

Skai is a quantum healer from France who spent 3 years in silence mastering his energy; he has helped clients reverse chronic diseases like Crohn's, Sjogren's, Cancer, and Neuropathy, and created an energy practice called Master Your Immune Force which he offers for free.

She uses AuraTransformation ceremonies involving soul retrieval, energy clearing, aura healing, and magnetic field building, alongside psychic-intuitive guidance and ongoing energy mastery practices.

This issue doesn't mention Karen, but Vincent recommends connected conscious breathing practice from The Presence Process by Michael Brown, and the book The Coming Times: A Pathway to Inner Peace by Helen Jane Rose.

The app mentioned offers quality academy masterclasses with multiple experts, along with networking and community connection, and is currently free to join until programs begin later in 2025.

No, Neos is still in the planning stage, so it's currently not possible to 'just live here for a while.' Those interested in becoming a future resident are directed to read the dedicated residency page.

Neos serves tasty, nourishing, seasonal food including home-made ferments, organic greens, quality proteins, foraged herbs, and local produce, and advocates intermittent fasting (an 18-hour window) as a recommended, non-obligatory practice for cellular healing through autophagy.

Neos practices disarming tension through actions of peace such as loving silence and space, working from the understanding that the outer world reflects one's inner landscape, encouraging people to focus on themselves rather than take things personally in conflict.

Yes, Neos is now taking venue reservations for 2027 for retreats, courses, or gatherings, offering 1000 acres of nature, accommodation for 38 people, and beautiful facilitation and community spaces just over an hour from Lisbon.
