• Yoga, meditation and relaxation

  This Gentle Yoga Holiday is especially for people who need to be pampered for a week.

  Gentle yoga is a mild form of yoga for people with chronic complaints, pain or tension. Gentle yoga works with postures that are adapted to everyone’s possibilities. You can expect gentle movement and yoga poses that help open, stretch and strengthen the body,  calming breathing techniques to ease nerves and tension, and nourishing meditation. Together this allows you to reconnect with yourself both physically and mentally.

  You will receive massage treatments for body and mind. This and all the other activities are specially for you to just experience a relaxing holiday on a Greek island.

  Food

  Kos is the island of Hippocrates, the father of medicine who said: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food”
  We believe that eating should be a pleasure and that is why we serve delicious, nutritious food. Every morning we prepare a fresh fruit or vegetable wake up juice for you. After your wonderful 90 minutes morning yoga and meditation session, a healthy breakfast will be served in the garden. You can make your own breakfast bowl with plant-based porridge, tasty granola, various types of nuts and seeds, dried fruit and fresh fruit salad. There is oatmeal, freshly baked bread, jam and other toppings for your breakfast sandwich. You can squeeze your own fresh orange juice, try different herbal teas and we’ll be happy to make you a freshly ground coffee.

  On six evenings we serve a delicious plant-based Greek style dinner, prepared on-site by our chef. Everything fresh and we prefer to use local products. You’re welcome to bring one of your own newly discovered Greek wines. The good company and atmospheric lanterns with lights in the trees will create unforgettable evenings.

• The rest of the day

  You will have all the time to do what you like and we’ll give you recommendations for the best places to go. In the early evening you have another 60 minutes gentle relaxing Yin/Restorative yoga session with a view of the sun setting.

  Floating in Therma

  One evening after dinner we go to Therma. These are natural hot springs, which the Greeks themselves use to relax and enjoy. While the sun goes down and the stars come out, it is wonderful to float in the warm water with the sounds of the mountain goats in the background.

  Sunset meditation

  The sunset meditation at Hippocrates Altis where we take you for the last evening together will be very special. It is close to the Asklepion, the sacred place of Hippocrates, father of Medicine who was born on Kos. The unique atmosphere makes this meditation an unforgettable experience.

  Complementary massage therapies

  The massage therapies are designed to help you gently let go of tensions, reconnect with your body, release your emotions and settle your mind. By gently bringing mind and body back into balance you will be better placed to recover your health and vitality.
  Our highly professional and experienced therapist offers: massage, reflexology, energetic healing and aromatherapy.
  We hope that you will leave feeling fully nourished – mentally and physically, having taken time out for yourself, and are able to carry this with you as you go
