Autumnal island retreat, in Greece
Coming home to yourself,
practices for times of transition.
Join Claudia Mirallegro and Tegan McLoud for a 7-day retreat in the mountains of Lefkada.
“Retreat” — comes from the Latin “retrahere” meaning ‘to pull back.’
“πνεῦμα” — ancient Greek word for "breath", and in a spiritual context, for "soul".
This retreat marks an opportunity for connection, serenity and deep restoration, as we integrate the energies of the summer and the transitions of your year, with our beautiful autumnal island retreat in Greece. Through movement, meditation, contemplation and community we will have time to slow down and re-earth—to taste and delight in the natural world and ourselves. By experiencing a variety of self-love practices, you will be given the tools to come home to YOU, unlocking and rejoicing in your own hidden powers, letting go of what we don’t need, and gaining a more authentic awareness of your soul’s path forwards.
DAILY PROGRAMMING
Embodied vinyasa
exploring the dynamic shapes and mobility within our bodies, stimulating the relationship between flow and stability, grace and strength, softness and bravery. These progressive sessions will not only work towards peak poses but will create moments that uplift, inspire, encourage and empower YOU - it’s time to remember your resilience, honour your sovereignty and celebrate what you are capable of.
Nourishing breakfast
Using local, seasonal ingredients to create a delicious, varied and healing vegan menu. Which will balance and clear the body whilst stimulating the palate. A combination of fresh juices and smoothies will also be available every day.
Afternoon activities
This space is going to be filled with something different each day. But this is the time for exploring the world outside of us whether that is through secret hiking excursions or exploring the world within us via workshops such as breathwork. Rest assured this time is for you to expand, explore and express your true essence.
Restorative yin
Yin class, gracefully acknowledging the beauty of stillness and softness whilst tuning in to your internal energy centres. You’ll tap into neglected areas of your body through meditation and long supportive holds. Exploring those aspects of your life that no longer serve the grandest vision of your Soul. The work of planting these seeds of balance may feel subtle, but when deeply rooted there is potential for profound change.
Family dinner
Detoxify the body with healthy, inspiring recipes curated to compliment movement sessions. Each meal will leave you feeling nourished from the inside out. Always prepared with love and thought, we believe food is the first step to healing. All of our menus are vegan, often raw and the food is colourful, vibrant and nutritious - you will always be excited and satisfied!
*Note that on one evening we will go out for dinner, so only 5 dinners are included*
THE LOCATION
When you travel to Lefkada on the Western sphere of Greece, you not only arrive at a destination, you travel to a different frequency. Escape to a crystalline Ionian Sea and panoramic views of mountains and nature - a deeply meaningful setting for spiritual experiences and wellness rituals.
The retreat centre, nestled in the heart of a hilltop is set across 3 luxurious villas, each with their own infinity pool - an idyllic setting to help you pull back from your daily lives. Within the villa's grounds, you’ll find an abundance of space, including mediterranean gardens with ancient olive trees to meditate amongst, multiple pretty terraces and the luxury of being 5 minute walk from the beach. Alongside indoor and outdoor yoga shalas and ceremonial spaces, you’ll find large family style kitchens, therapy rooms, shady lounges and gorgeous communal eating spaces.
