Yoga & Visioning Retreat in Koufonisia, Greece
June 11-18, 2022
Join Wendy Haines, ICF, PCC Certified Somatic Coach and Vivica Schwartz, Yoga Instructor and Ayurveda Wellness Counselor for this journey of sacred reflection, visioning and yoga in Koufonisia, Greece.
a Journey of sacred reflection and visioning
Koufonisia means “the hollow islands” in Greek – two unique islands of a friable rock have had their coastlines nibbled away by the wind and waves to form wonderful beaches and caves and strange rock formations. This is the Cyclades as they were 50 years ago.
Come and savor the quiet stillness of this little known gem of Koufonisia.
Step into the clear blue of the Aegean sea to resource and rejuvenate.
Bask in the peaceful sea view from our villas and let the quietude deepen your perspective.
Stretch out under the starry night sky as the gentle waves lap in the distance.
Enjoy daily yoga and guided meditation with Vivica to tap into a place of inner expansion.
In sessions with Wendy, we will harness this inner expansion and allow our longing to lead as we birth your new vision. We will then go beyond visioning to align, become and fulfill on that vision.
Adventure awaits, as well, on a sailing trip to uninhabited Kato Island where pristine, sandy beaches await.

accommodations
Our villas stand in a tranquil spot in the northeast of the island, just a few minutes’ walk from Pori, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Aegean.
Great attention has been given to the outdoor areas. From the open sky bathtub, ideal to wash away the salt and sand after a day at the beach or to soak in and cool down from the summer heat, to patios with comfortable sofas and colorful cushions highlighting the arty white-washed walls. The living room with the fireplace is bright and airy, featuring a sophisticated blend of traditional island style and modern touches and has a fireplace. The bedrooms are comfortable and cozy, with colorful, funky accessories that add a personal touch.
The spacious open plan kitchen is ideal for those who like to cook while chatting with their friends who sit in the adjacent dining area. The lower level is fully modern and brightly colored, with its own character and palette. It consists of an inviting playroom and three cozy bedrooms, all equipped with skylights to let the sunlight in.
