Mediterranean meditation…on a Greek island, where the sun shines almost continually.
Free your mind with daily morning yoga and meditation sessions and fill your heart with art creating beautiful holiday sketchbooks of the Mediterranean landscape.
Our retreat yoga classes are a balanced mix of meditation, hatha and vinyasa yoga. We begin with centering meditation that leads into a gentle flow of yoga and ends with relaxation in shavasana sending us into the day with clear, open and focused mind.
As the week continues and we discover more about our ourselves and our current journeys, our practice can start to reflect our needs and our personal levels.
All levels of yoga, meditation, and art experience are welcome!
After a deliciously fresh and healthy breakfast, we meet on the garden terrace for a sketchbook workshop including watercolors, acrylics and collages. The art workshop consists of a short demo and a supervised painting session.
In the afternoon, you can explore the island of Hydra with its magnificent sunsets, quirky alleys, and rustic Greek homes for inspiring sceneries. You can swim, relax on the beach, go for walks, explore the island's history, and sketch to your heart's content.
In the evening, you are welcome to join us on the terrace for the sunset and to discuss the day's adventures. Students will take home new confidence in sketching, peace of mind, less stress, fewer worries, many new ideas, and a self-made sketchbook.
