Gathering/Workshop «Loving without losing yourself»
Why do we repeat the same patterns in our relationships? Three hours to see the pattern from the inside — with the map of parts. The best way to get to know this house from the inside.
Wednesday, 28 October 2026 · 18:00–20:00 · Setúbal · group of 8-12 people · €180 (early bird €150 until 21 Oct)
Realistic self-compassion. Caring for yourself without lowering the bar.
8 weeks to work on the relationship you have with yourself — the voice that criticises, the part that postpones, the tiredness of never quite arriving. A group of 8-12 people, in Setúbal, with a psychologist.
Free · 2 to 5 minutes · no sign-up
Start by noticing.
Three open tools: your protective parts, your wellbeing over the last two weeks and a breathing guide to use right now. Nothing leaves your device.
This is what we talk about
We exist to help you make peace — first with yourself, then with others. Perhaps you recognise these signs:
- — The voice that never finds you enough.
- — The part that wants to change and the part that sabotages.
- — The relationships where you repeat what you swore never to repeat.
- — The tiredness of pretending everything is fine.
None of this is a manufacturing fault. These are parts of you, protecting you as best they know how — and that can be worked with.
Three doors into the same house.

What is a crystal-clear mind?
A crystal-clear mind is not a mind without doubts, wounds or difficult emotions. It is a mind that learns to see with greater clarity, to remain present with what it feels, and to find stability without becoming rigid.
Just as water becomes limpid when it is no longer constantly stirred, a clearer space can also emerge within us — where we can recognise our different parts, understand our patterns and choose with greater awareness how we want to live and relate.

Who is on the other side
Isabel Fernandes
“I accompany people who wish to understand their inner world better, care for relational wounds and build a more secure relationship with themselves and with others.
My work integrates the Internal Family Systems model — IFS, mindfulness, self-compassion and third-wave cognitive-behavioural approaches, within a therapeutic relationship grounded in safety, respect and a deep understanding of each person’s uniqueness.
I founded MentesCristalinas because making peace within deserves more doors in than a consulting room.”
