Ionian Sea at Lefkada Island ~ the stunning setting for our Greece retreat
MYTH, MAGIC & YOGA RETREAT ::
A Greek Island Journey
June 2024 with Hannah Muse
Join Hannah Muse and a gathering of bright-eyed travelers on the premier retreat centre in Greece, on Lefkada Island. This glamorous getaway is no ordinary one - it’s an enchanted quest where our rich inner journey takes place in the mythical lands of ancient Gods and Goddesses. For 7 days and 6 nights, we will be nourished by daily yogic practices, delicious Greek culinary experience, wisdom and stories of Greek mythos, down time to relax by the pool amidst ancient olive trees, exciting adventures, optional excursion to the Temple of Athena and Temple of Apollo at Delphi, and swimming in the turquoise blue waters of the Ionian Sea.
Are you longing for a mystical adventure in beautiful, mythical lands?
Is your soul hungry for spiritual practice, holy lands, and stunning turquoise waters?
Has your inner child been asking you to play?
Have your ancestors been calling you to listen and learn from the legends of the ancient times?
Is your body-mind-soul craving a week immersed in daily yoga, meditation, and ritual practice?
Are you longing for more connection, to travel with other curious, kind seekers?
Do you need a break from the mundane to remember that your wild, free, luminous being still knows how to play joyfully, sing loudly, reflect quietly, dance wildly, and fall in love with this life fully?
Join us this summer in Greece.
A journey like no other!
“Here the field that’s grazed by horses is lush
With spring flowers, here the winds sweetly blow
Here, O goddess, so gracefully you grasp
The golden cup, freely pouring like wine
The nectar all-mixed with our rejoicing”

“All of our ceremonies were so meaningful and perfect! Every site, every tree, every experience has changed me, and I truly feel like I have been part of such a sacred experience. I find that I am so much more grounded and can find peace with every situation as never before. I was called there, and the entire experience left an indelible mark on my heart. It has enriched me more than any other experience could have. I will be forever changed and always think of our time with such a grateful, open heart.”
