Meet me where the sky touches the sea

Mykonos: Find Balance Retreat

18th - 22nd May

4 nights from £599


I visited Mykonos for the first time last May. I'm  not a stranger to Greece and her islands, their laid back charm and beauty but Mykonos was special. So special I could not resist planning a return. 
​Once the poor island in the middle of the Aegean, Mykonos is now one of the glitziest, most renowned tourist destinations in the Mediterranean.
However Mykonos has two sides the glitz and glamour and then there's the post card perfect scenery, the white  washed cube houses built next to and on top of one another, iconic windmills, endless sandy beaches, red and blue church domes and vivid almost fluorescent flowers everywhere.
Mykonos is also about freedom. Nobody judges anybody there, making it 
the perfect location for this luxury yoga retreat. A retreat to embrace and find balance.


 Our Hotel : Semeli a luxury hotel in Mykonos Town 
“Oh Semeli, sweet mother of wine, drunkenness, joy and mother of Dionysus…”
If the myth of the Greek gods could ever turn to reality, it would definitely happen in Mykonos, the ancient nymph Semeli’s island.  Named after the Greek Zeus’ beloved paramour Semeli. Our hotel, the 5 * Semeli luxury hotel epitomises its namesake’s characteristics of beauty and harmony. The Semeli dazzles with its effortlessly chic aesthetic and cool, laid back aura. A magical place tucked in a quiet area in the heart of Mykonos town, the Semeli is special. Born from a passion to create a place where visitors could feel at home while basking in the Mykonos magic, this unique haven of relaxation is housed in a building showcasing a uniquely elegant design.
The Semeli has an extensive range of 5 star hotel services and facilities including the a la carte Thioni restaurant, pool bar, lounge bar, indoor and outdoor sitting areas, swimming pools, fitness centre and of course the Spa to indulge yourself with the many treatments available. 

The distinct, stress free, welcoming atmosphere and personalised 5 star services make the Semeli truly stand out and why it's my choice of hotel for my Find Balance Retreat. for more details please check out The Semeli website

Yoga
The demands of our modern day lifestyles can drain us physically, emotionally and mentally. We can lack energy, vitality, our immune system and our overall health and wellbeing can suffer. 
Retreats give you time away from daily routines and demands, they give you a place to relax, practice yoga, be pampered, eat well, meet people and they also give you the space to slow down, renew, review and re-connect. 

This Retreat will introduce you to Yoga for mind- body well-being and Gail's way of integrating traditional yoga, mindful movement and contemplative practices to help balance the stresses created by our modern lifestyles. The aim of the twice daily yoga practices : to help boost energy, improve flexibility & strength, activate the relaxation response, soothe the emotional body, reduce anxiety & stress, stimulate restful sleep and enhance immunity: find balance
Each day there will be an energising morning practice before brunch and a relaxing sunset practice. The rest of the day you are free to relax, indulge yourself, explore Mykonos but most of all enjoy!

Here's an example of our daily schedule on retreat.
8am - 9am :Tea, coffee, fruit juice and snack available prior to our morning yoga session
9.30am - 11am: morning yoga practice - focus on the Core Body finding inner strength, stability,  grounding, connection, confidence.
