Bliss in Greece ReTREAT
Join me for 6 days in the tranquil island of Amorgos; a heaven of sun, delicious food and tranquility in Greece.
This re-treat will be a time to bring back a sense of calmness, health, strength, positivity and new ways to look at life to make it great. An opportunity for deep nourishment in all levels of Being. Creating balance in your yoga practice with its yin and yang aspects (passive & active) which are essential for homeostasis. You will be feeding your body with life giving energy and with organic wholesome foods, your mind with positive thoughts and your soul/spirit/essence with aliveness and meaning.
Arriving in Amorgos is like stepping into another world. Breathing in the fresh sea air filled with the fragrance of sage that surrounds this oasis in the Greek cyclades.
The hotel and grounds boast a luxurious yet minimalistic set up and offer many spots to practice yoga, hang out and escape the sun. Cool down in the infinity pool or lounge in sun beds next to the sun-exposed pool drinking a smoothie. Step into another world upon arrival at Aegialis Hotel.

Getting There:
Naxos is the closest island, followed by Santorini, then Mykonos, and Athens is the furthest but tends to be the cheapest island to travel to/from
From Santorini, Athens or Naxos, you can take a speedboat to Amorgos main port, Katapola, or the closest port which is Aegialis, from there your pick up to the hotel will be arranged (the website to check for times of speed boats is www.openseas.gr
If travelling from Athens, you can take a ferry from Piraeus to either Katapola or Aegialis
http://www.openseas.gr/openseas/en/ it's the ferry website =) The journey from Athens is a bit longer but you can take it as a cruise. Once you arrive to the magical island you will completely forget about the travel time!
