Palaia Epidavros, Greece
View all pictures

Summary

Seven days in a small group.
Four nights on wild beaches.
Framed by two nights in a hotel by the sea.

We begin at the Temple of Asclepius.
A sacred place of dreams and healing.
We move like nomads,
from beach to beach.
Present, listening.

No set schedule—just the rhythm of life.

Focus on what matters most.
Cooking over a fire.
Sleeping under the stars.

Sharing Circles for group reflection.
Going deeper in one-on-one sessions with me.

In touch with nature,
the landscape, and the elements.
In touch with yourself.
Working with inner wisdom, the body, and dreams.

Slowing down,
to the breath of the sea,
to the warmth of the fire,
to the embrace of the earth.

This is returning, belonging, remembering.
Not “repair.”

TESTIMONIAL
“It’s hard to put into words just how beautiful, emotional, and deeply meaningful this experience was. Olivia’s process is the heart of this retreat. It creates a safe, nurturing space where you feel free to open up, share your feelings, and take time for deep personal reflection. Olivia brings not only her knowledge but also her presence—warm, understanding, and uplifting. For me, she was a beacon of light at a time when I really needed it.”
~ Alex

WHO IS FACILITATING THE RETREAT?
Hi. I’m Olivia, and I’m looking forward to guiding you and the group on this very special journey.

I’m a depth psychology process facilitator and nature therapist specializing in dream work and unconscious communication. Since 2020, I’ve been guiding individuals and groups through embodied processes outdoors—creating safe, grounded spaces where you can reconnect with yourself and nature.

I’ll guide your discoveries with warmth, presence, and a touch of humor—without a set agenda, but with depth.

WHAT MIGHT A TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE?

> Sunday: Arrival & Welcome Dinner in Epidaurus
> Monday: Departure, Temple of Asclepius & first night outdoors
> Tuesday–Thursday: The journey unfolds
> Friday: Return to Epidaurus & retreat closing
> Saturday: Departure

There’s no rigid schedule—but there is a rhythm.

We wake up with the place.
We prepare breakfast and dinner over the fire, with lunch in between.
Sometimes we change locations.

In between, there’s time for creative exercises, group circles, individual support, as well as exploration, swimming, fun, silence, and rest.

Some days feel light.
Others feel deep.
Some simply feel very close to the essence.

We follow what the place, the group, and the moment need from us.

WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?
- Backpack (ideally 70L, so there’s still room for group gear and food)​
- Tarp & ropes (no tent)
- Sleeping bag & sleeping pad
- Seat pad
- Cutlery, plate or bowl & water bottle
- Headlamp
- Appropriate clothing (as little as possible)
- Pocket knife
- Lighter or matches
- Toiletries & wet wipes
*Equipment can also be borrowed from me. Feel free to contact me with any further questions.
