'DAUGHTERS OF THE EARTH'
07.06.23 - 14.06.23
With Ami Patel & Vicky Cruz.
We invite you to join us for this wholesome, enlivening and connected gathering. An immersive and organic yoga and wellbeing experience. Listen to your body. Nourish your mind. Awaken your senses. Remember who you truly are!
This is your invitation to allow yourself to ease back into your inner wisdom, creativity and peace. Our intention during this retreat is to dive deeper into the wisdom of our bodies and connect to our inner intuition, receiving guidance on your journey to new strength, heightened aliveness and renewed creativity.
Reawaken to love and joy, by immersing yourself in tranquil nature, share endless laughter and awaken your spirit in leadership, and to your unique authentic self…
Join us for a weeklong exciting journey of profound healing and renewed aliveness. This retreat will leave you feeling empowered to make the changes you want and to lead your life with grace.
Take time from your everyday life to regulate your nervous system, awaken your inner power, light up and open your heart to the joy and love always surrounding us.
This is for you who intuitively know you are meant for more and you feel ready to awaken and remember your great abundance.
Imagine…
How would your acting evolve if you were more present?
How would your practice evolve if you were more inspired?
How would your relationship with the other actor evolve if you were more receptive?
How would your relationships on set evolve if you were more resilient?
How would your presence evolve if you were more empowered?
What if you could navigate any circumstance creatively and with deeply empowered presence?
THE LAND
A perfect corner of Greece. This Wellness Retreat will be hosted at the Pelion Homes Retreat Centre, in the mythical region of Pelion. This paradise is tucked away in the Pagasitikos Gulf in eastern Greece. It is situated on the western side of the Mount Pelion and around the village of Agios Georgios Nilias. The whole area is very lush and green, relatively untouched and characterised by sweeping mountain vistas, forests, enchanting villages and hideaway beaches.
The Pelion Peninsula is steeped in mythology. Mount Pelion took its name from the mythical king Peleus, father of Achilles, and the forested hills were the homeland of Centaurs, the mythical creatures half-men and half-horse. Pelion is dotted with monasteries and some still thriving.
This is land where the Gods, Demi-Gods and Mystics have taken pleasure and respite!
Perfect for Retreating.

For those retreaters looking to take their retreat to a deeper level, talking therapy is available in 1-2-1 meetings. Exercising the body can help focus the mind and soften the body of its defences. This can allow for greater awareness and new insights. 1-2-1 meetings are designed to support this and are optional.
