Ode to Existence is an invitation to come back home, back to the core of ourselves, to the space of letting go and healing.
The practices that we propose will guide you to move inwardly, to gently allow healing to take place and to induce the profound sense of surrender. Surrendering to yourself and your inner beauty and wisdom.
Allowing your true self to emerge, you being just you, your deepest wishes to emanate back to your spirit and gradually manifest in your life.
We will wake up with a short swim in the sea, allowing the salt to clean us energetically, then continued with a yoga practice to wake up the life force.
We will have a light breakfast before diving into meditative tantric practices and the vibrations of the Gong. Shortly after noon we are going to enjoy local home made food and then have some free time during the hot hours to enjoy the beach or sleeping in the shadow. We will be closing the day with an evening practice or ceremony to end up under the starry sky and the brightness of the moon.
Greece has always been a very welcoming and nurturing land. The climate, the landscapes, the history, the food and the people bring altogether a sense of coming back home, in the roots of our civilization.
In this retreat, we invite you to gather outdoors, close to Mother Nature. All practices and activities will be held under the trees and the blue sky and we will nest close to the ground in tipi tents.
Modern times have taken us far from sleeping on the ground, living mainly indoors and far from the earth, the trees and the birds. Nowadays we rediscover the therapeutic effect of nature immersions through activities such as forest baths and walking barefoot on the earth which help us discharge tension and electrical activity of the body, literally grounding ourselves.
Living outside reminds us that we are part of nature, one with the trees, the sky, the moon, the sun and the earth. We offer ourselves the gift to be fully embraced by nature and infused by her healing frequencies.
Summer is the best period to live all day long outside, and in this retreat we use all those elements together with the intense heat to bring the body back in tune to its natural rhythm, to detox completely and to awaken the dormant fire energy that we all have inside. The energy that helps us transform our state of mind and burn away all those layers that do not allow us evolve.
Resting and sleeping on the ground, being fully received and supported by mother Nature, connected with all elements was deeply nourishing, healing and aligned with our inner journey… A real Ode to Existence in all levels.
A unique experience that we wish to renew this year with fresh ideas and more experience.
During this retreat you will…
- Get in tune with nature
- Disconnect from everything
- Dive into the essence of your existence
- Discover ancient rituals and explore their potency
- Relax completely and rejuvenate
- Connect with each other to get a taste of Oneness
- Sleep under the stars, eat Mediterranean food and enjoy the sea
- Recharge all your layers of existence

We will hold the space together with my dear friend
Fascinated by human nature, Kallia first explored existence and consciousness through a scientific approach.
After 15 years in basic research in Neuroscience, she shifted her focus from the brain to the heart and the connection between the two. She discovered Kundalini Yoga as a powerful tool for well-being in day-to-day life and as a practice that opens the door to inner wisdom.
She started teaching right after her training in 2019 techniques to calm the mind through the breath, to readjust the spine through the movement and to enter meditation bypassing the mind through mantras and sound.
A passionate kundalini yoga teacher, she received the call of the Gong to set forth the awakening process through vibration, intention and love. She was taught the art of the Gong through the kundalini lineage, to help people transcend the limited perception of existence, get a glimpse of their inner reality and of the sensation of an aligned energetic body.
Kallia now offers kundalini classes and Gong sessions in groups and in private, holds singing circles, and organizes events and retreats.
