MY RETREAT

Embodying the wisdom of nature, this retreat invites you on a transformative journey of movement, breath, and deep listening. Rooted in the principles of body-oriented psychotherapy, mindfulness, and nature therapy, we will explore the profound connection between our physical being and emotional landscape.

Set in the wild beauty of Kea Island, this immersive experience blends somatic practices, yogic teachings, meditative movement, and allowing participants to shed old patterns, awaken the body’s natural wisdom, and return to a state of embodied freedom and balance. As we move through this journey, we immerse ourselves in nature through practices that bring us back in tune with our natural connection to the environment, as well as our emotional and physical rhythms.

Here, nature becomes our teacher and guide, showing us how to flow, release, and embrace life’s ever-changing dance. This is a somatic journey into the elements, where earth, water, fire, and air awaken our innermost essence.

Morning Offering:

Each morning, we will attune to the rhythms of the body and breath through mindful movement, yogic practices, embodied awareness exercises, and guided meditations that cultivate presence and vitality.

Evening Offering:

Evenings will be devoted to expressive movement, nature-based rituals, and somatic practices, creating space for emotional release, connection, and joy.

Special offerings

Somatic Journey: The Body as Healer

Nature Immersion & Elemental Connection

Fullmoon Yin & Sound Ceremony

Under the soft light of the moon, we’ll gather for a nourishing Yin Yoga session infused with restorative touch and sound. Expect deep stillness, oceanic breath, and the resonance of bowls and other instruments to carry you into a dreamlike state. A moment to release, reflect, and receive.

TEACHER’S NOTE

This retreat is about understanding that we hold the medicine we need in order to transform our lives. It will be a safe healing space that will bring us together in community in order to come back to ourselves, to make friends, and to celebrate existence. By slowing down and reconnecting to the rhythms of nature, we will align with the beauty of the present moment.

It is a week of cultivating joy, space to reflect, rest and abundant self-love.
