49. Yoga Retreat by the Sea, Aegina 2022

Yoga Retreat Aegina Irides

The practices followed were based on what the body truly needs—a complete break from everything. We focused on Restorative & Recovery Yoga, which rejuvenates and replenishes the system with the vital energy that the digital world tends to drain from us.

My practice is always supportive and permissive, while simultaneously being accessible to everyone, regardless of experience, physical condition, or age.

It helps oxygen absorption and allows the body to expand without physical effort. Breathing techniques quiet the mind, body, and heart, “switching off” overstimulation by shifting the brain’s attention and the senses of perception inward.

We created an entirely different state of being, connecting the individual with their self, thoughts, breath, and bodily sensations through a gentle practice of self-care. Setting boundaries against the digital world—and everything that causes us wear and tear—is essential; perhaps then, we wouldn’t feel so exhausted all the time.

Four themed practices that left us with rested faces and calm souls.

To ensure the best possible experience, a specialized yoga floor was installed at the hospitable Irides Hotel. Combined with the magnificent view and the soothing sounds of the sea, we recharged our energy, making a powerful start to our summer.
