Overview
During this unique five-day, women-only retreat, you’ll nurture your feminine energy, your true source of happiness and self-esteem. The varied programme, led by two retreat leaders, is rich with practices and guidance that help you to connect more closely with the wisdom and pleasure that resides within your body. When we connect within, we activate our innate feminine state of being, which, almost by osmosis, inspires more flow, joy and intuition in our day-to-lives.

Highlights
Both Cristina and Sophie are widely loved for their unique approaches that guide women to live in tune with their innate feminine natures. While they create space for both self-reflection and laughter, they also give us guidance to dive in to the magic of our bodies and escape the thinking loops of the mind. This helps us balance our nervous system so we leave with a more grounded vitality and love for ourselves and those around us.

Location
The retreat takes place in one of our favorite property, Euphoria Retreat. The hotel is integrated into the surrounding valley of olive trees and the UNESCO heritage site. Euphoria Retreat is in a very historic area, just 2 minutes from Mystras town (where the property ends, the village starts) and overlooking the ancient town of Sparta. It’s set in a valley and has the most amazing views from wherever you are in the retreat. There is a private forest just behind the retreat. Be sure you take a wander down to the quaint, cobble-lined streets of Mystras where you can explore this traditional Greek village, it is very charming.
