Introduction

Let's meet on the wonderful island of Amorgos to relax, meditate, and practice yoga.
We would be honored to host you on our beautiful island. We invite you to experience and explore the best of Greece as we curate a sacred space for you to dive into your yoga practice.

During this 6-night retreat, our retreat leader, Pam Rader, will guide you through a series of teachings and lessons to provide a space for self-discovery. Throughout the retreat, you will have access to many amenities, including a pool, spa, and multiple yoga shalas with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. We will also take some time to explore the mountain range across the island with guided hikes and excursions. We intend to provide a seamless and relaxing retreat so you can explore and practice what makes you feel you again. We hope you'll join us on this unique journey of self-discovery.

Program

Arrival Day: relax, settle in, and prepare for an amazing week!
Upon your arrival to Amorgos, a hotel van (or bus) will be waiting to transfer you to the Aegialia Hotel & Spa, where you can check in, rest, swim, or read.

Each Day

Yoga
Each day, you will discover something different as Pam Rader takes us through a deep stretch into her morning and evening routines. Here is a sampling of what Pam will cover. Note: she will mix things up as needed.

Morning Inquiry: Introduction to yoga as a practice of personal discovery. Inquiry around the stories we’ve habitually told about who we are, the values we have lived into that aren’t our own, and what it would look like to seek deeper alignment with what matters most to each person. 45-60 minutes Guided group meditation- 10-15 minutes.

Asana Flow-style (all levels) class themed to bring forth our inquiry session in the physical realm. (60 minutes).

Evening: Yin / Restorative or Yoga Nidra evening practice (1 hour). We suggest that everyone bring journals so people can dive into the topics if they choose. The idea is that those who come to go deep have the option to do so, and those who want to stay on the surface can choose to. The timing of each session will be worked around the meal times.

We look forward to spending time with everyone and sharing yoga with you in such a stunning environment.
