This 4-day retreat will equip you with easy-to-use, practical tools to transform your life both on and off the mat. You will be educated on how to use your Yoga practice to uncover your blind spots and pockets of fear within you, learn from them, become wiser and heal your physical pain and process your emotional blockages.
You will be introduced to some of the basic principles of Energy Medicine. You will learn how to open sacred space, be aware of the state of your field and facilitate the right conditions for healing through mending the holes in your field. You will practically understand how Energy Medicine DOES HAVE practical applications that DO affect your physical body and the probabilities of falling for disease and depression. You will start realising that everything happens to you has the mere intention to help you evolve and grow spiritually and not as a targeted, personal assault towards you because universe doesn't like you.
About Illias Kousis
Hi, I am Ilias, a Forrest Yoga Guardian (Level 5 - handpicked by Ana Forrest & Jose Calarco), Energy Medicine Practitioner (Four Winds) and Certified Breath Coach (YogaBody & Dan Brulé). I am formally educated as Geologist and Climate Scientist (MSc), which has been a result of my early passion to study Earth and Life in general to satisfy my own thirst for knowledge as well as to serve humanity. After realising what my life’s purpose is, I decided to make a radical change: I quit my PhD 90% before completion and dedicated myself to transitioning in teaching yoga full-time. I never looked back since then and my life is full of blessings one coming after the other. I know what it feels to be scared of standing up for yourself, disobeying your fear, stepping into your own power and daring to chase after your dreams. I did it for myself, still do it and will continue doing it until I die. I can help you find the courage to dream your life into being; you know, that “life” that YOU authentically desire living, not the ones others expect you to live. Learn more about me by navigating my website and IG profile.
This retreat is for you who are interested in honing your skills of:
Speaking Truth to yourself, acknowledging where opportunities for growth lie and take responsibility for your actions, which by extension will define your life experience.
Learning how to perform on high level in all areas of life without getting overwhelmed or shallowed by intensity and become the leader of your own head.
Finding purpose in life and get excited about every little second you are alive.
This retreat is NOT for you if you:Believe the lies in your head that this work is too spiritual or too advanced for you.
Catch yourself being unhappy and bitter inside and prefer to spread negativity to others around you instead of being accountable and change your life.
Catch yourself complaining about external factors like the government, God, colleagues, strangers and deny recognising that this is a call for action to elevate your consciousness.
This retreat will provide you with tools to start handling the above challenges in an intelligent way. Whether you are attending the retreat or not, remember this: The more you evolve spiritually and unlock your gifts and talents and learn how to share them, the more you send ripples of transformation and inspiration to every creature around you. YOU become part of the SOLUTION instead of the problem. The choice is yours.
The retreat is open to practitioners of all levels, ages and pregnant women.
