About the Workshop

Our annual workshop returns to ATMOS for two dates. Each date is a full session of its own, so choose the day that suits you. Six hours, one continuous practice. The day opens with a circle, moves into two hours of ceremonial steam, continues with a cacao ceremony and meditation, and builds to two hours of rhythmic breathwork. It ends where it began, in a circle. Boris leads the steam. Elton leads the cacao and the breathwork. Both have worked in the Amazonian tradition for many years, often together. Come on your own or with someone close.

Meet Your Facilitators: Elton Lee Abela & Boris Ryabov

Elton Lee Abela – Primordial Breathwork™ Facilitator · Paititi Institute

Elton came to breathwork from music and the culinary arts. A trip to Peru introduced him to Amazonian traditions, which he studied with the Shipibo-Conibo in the Ucayali region before continuing to Paititi.

Since 2022 he has been a Primordial Breathwork™ facilitator with the Paititi Institute. He has also studied Qigong with Master Mantak Chia and Tibetan Buddhism under Ven. Thubten Chodron.



Boris Ryabov – Steam master, co-founder of ATMOS

Boris has worked with steam for 20 years. He co-founded ATMOS and the Steamology Institute, and his practice brings together Andean-Amazonian traditions and Eurasian steam culture.



About the location

ATMOS Steam & Welness Center is an outdoor steam space, set among the pines on a countryside estate 30 minutes from Lisbon and 20 minutes from Ericeira. Steam domes, an ice bath, a hot tub and a lounge to rest in between. Book a room and spend the night in the countryside.



Before You Arrive

Eat lightly A light breakfast works best: fruit, oats or a smoothie. Digesting a full meal during breathwork is uncomfortable.

Dress to move Part of the practice is done standing, with some jumping. Wear comfortable clothes; a sports bra is recommended. [Bring swimwear for the steam.]

Health information Breathwork and cacao are not suitable for everyone. They are not recommended during pregnancy, and some health conditions and medications are contraindications. Please read the full list on the booking page and contact Boris if anything applies to you.
