THE RETREAT:
The QIGONG seminar leader LUCY RATZEL and the landscape photographer COSTAS ZISSIS will make this seminar trip a very special experience for you.
We are both very close to nature and have made it our concept to always practise Qigong in the midst of nature. It reinforces the exercises in a natural way, because Qigong originated from the observation of nature and here we are in direct contact with the sources of power!
IN THE MORNING we practise Qigong right by the sea, then after breakfast in the shade of old olive trees.
The AFTERNOON is free to swim in the sea or in the large pool, or to linger in the popular Ina Café on the beach promenade.
On two EARLY EVENINGS we have the guided meditation "Small Energy Circuit" from Silent Qigong for an hour each.
There are also free days for excursions and letting yourself drift.
