A TYPICAL DAY ON THE ISLAND

Morning 

We like to start the day with a pre-yoga snack of fruit, dried fruits, nuts, coffee and or a large selection on teas. After we convene for the morning outdoor yoga which takes place at the outdoor shala, surrounded by nature with the most magnificent sea views.

Following the morning yoga breakfast is served. Consisting of a delicious Greek retreat breakfast of yogurt, fruit salad and nuts and Lissa’s scrumptious granola! Other options include Lissa's softly folded eggs and Corne's famous banana pancakes.

Once you have filled your tummy, it is time to relax. You can book a therapeutic treatment, have some beach time, go for a swim, or explore the many walking paths of this island retreat. 

Lunch

When you hear our church bell ring its time for lunch! All our meals are family-style around our two big dining tables, indoors and outside on the terrace,

 

Afternoon

After a lazy lunch comes a lazy afternoon of utter relaxation. Find a hammock or hidden cove or have a siesta under an ancient Oak or Olive tree...time to just be. We have an art cupboard for you to raid and if you are feeling active you could circumnavigate the island on a kayak of or a SUP.

 

The afternoon yoga session is held as the sun begins to set, this class is usually a slower more meditative class.

 

Evening

 

In the evening a dinner under the stars with the sharing of stories, lots of laughter and a glass of wine if you wish around the fire pit. To end off the perfect day, climb into bed, tucked up with a book or star gazing...sleep follows soon.
