The Retreat In Pictures
The Retreat Program
The check-in day has no practice so you can just relax and soak in the views from Rosy's or immerse yourself in those blue waters. We will then have a welcoming dinner followed by a restful night's sleep to be ready for our first retreat day.
We will begin our mornings with QiGong followed by a more active Hatha session while the afternoon yoga sessions will be a mix of gentle, therapeutic practices with periods of meditation and practices like Yoga Nidra to nurture the body and the soul.
On Wednesday, we will have QiGong and the morning Yoga class. The rest of the day is for you to either rest, hike, or explore the neighboring island of Egina which is a 15 minutes ferry ride from Agistri.
Take this time to detox, restore your body and bring more clarity to your mind.
So, why not try going alcohol-free for that time? This way you and your body will absorb and make the most out of all the practices you came here to do and you will experience the retreat on a much deeper level.
Please note the guesthouse will have other guests besides the retreat participants.
