About this activity
Held between the dates 12- 19 May 2018 and 14 - 21st October 2018 in Lefkada Greece the program designed and lead by an Indian Zen Master utilises Buddhist meditation complemented by the classical practice of Indian hatha yoga that aids greatly in physical and mental healing, through which this program guides you to go beyond realm of meditation into awakening the inner Buddha and entering the field of self-healing and healing others.
The only type of retreat in the world, it's a 50-hour learning that sequentially introduces you to Buddhist Meditation along with the powerful yet gentle practice of yoga that helps us expand our body and learn to heal through energy work. The program is quite unique in the sense that this is not just a pleasure retreat where you indulge in fun and partying all day long and practice 1 hour yoga to escape from the guilt of enjoying yourself . Instead it a powerful conscious work to help you enter your mind, understand the root of all suffering and transform through the practices taught in the mystical land of India. 
A retreat which is tailored towards small groups, it is great for beginners as well as advanced students of yoga as well as ordinary people who have never practiced Yoga before but are suffering from different kinds of problems and ailments that seem to be cyclic in nature, from depression to back pains to inability to attract the good that we wish in our lives. The size of the group helps the master give his guidance to one and all in the doses they may need.
