Program

Five elements retreat: Therapeutic yogic practices, meditation, asana, pranayama, and bodywork with Sasy Chasomeri. In life we play out many versions of ourselves and only when we let go of our need to be defined by the boundaries and ideas of who we think we are or must be, are we the true expression of ourselves. The elements of nature exist around us and within us. We are made of earth, water, fire, air, and the ether that surrounds and holds everything – the moment we allow ourselves to explore this very nature of our true being, transformation begins. At the unique setting of Okreblue Seaside Retreat during this 7-day yoga retreat, Sasy will lead practices that are systematic, effective, and therapeutic while incorporating the framework of the 5 elements of Yoga & Ayurveda. Meditations will be held in different nature locations and each asana class will address a specific theme/topic. Through mindful therapeutic movement, techniques and sequences you will have the opportunity to explore strengths, acknowledge limitations, and learn to move beyond them. You'll be looking for true Yoga = Union, which may be found in mindful activity or moments of stillness. Join this retreat and find yourself in the most beautiful land of light, earth, water, wind, and held in the eternal ether of the fabulous Greek island Paros.

The retreat includes daily morning and evening practices with morning meditation at different nature locations around the retreat center to establish a deeper connection and understanding of the elements. Morning meditations will be followed by asana classes in order to embody the elemental state of being through our perfect vehicle which you call body. You meet again in the late afternoon for a second session that offers a variety of supportive practices such as slow therapeutic asana, partnered yogic bodywork, and more.

All practices are accessible to both those newer to yoga and more experienced practitioners/ yoga teachers. Light snacks and tea will be offered in the short break between meditation and asana class, followed by Okreblue’s sumptuous brunch buffet with homemade delicacies right after asana.

There’s lots of free time to enjoy the beaches and the island, relax at Okreblue’s beach or treat yourself with a nurturing massage, while many other options awaits you to explore. The evenings offers Okreblue’s delicious and organic rich and healthy dinner buffet.

Spa treatments

Okreblue offers a variety of massages and treatments, available at an extra cost. The famous Ayurvedic massage is one of the services available.

Ayurvedic yoga massage

Ayurvedic yoga massage combines traditional Indian deep tissue massage and yoga-based stretching therapies. This original method was developed in the early 1980s by Master Kusum Modak from Pune, India. The individual session of Ayurvedic yoga massage is given on a mattress on the floor and lasts between 75 and 90 minutes.

Gradually, a sense of openness and presence is brought to the receiver. Both hands and feet are used in the delivery of the massage. Another unique tool of this massage is the use of Calamus powder mixed with just a little oil, which brings out the toxins from the body. The scrubbing and stimulating feeling awakens the skin, blood circulation, and senses.

This massage harmonizes the flow of vital energy, indulges a deep sense of stillness and opening, stimulates breathing capacity, promotes the circulation of body fluids, releases tension in the muscles, loosens joint stiffness, stretches fascias, realigns body structure, increases the range of movement, and improves posture.

Tachyon cocoon

Tachyon is the quantum physics term defining the natural energy of the cosmos. In 1966, the quantum physicist, G. Feinberg, defined Tachyon as the energy field beyond the speed of light, the boundary of the world which is experienced with the senses. Tachyon is the primary expression of energy of the source, all that is, the bridge between the material world and the formless or infinite.

Tachyon has no color, sound, or vibration and yet it is the source of all frequencies. It also brings order out of chaos. In 1990, the American scientist D. Wagner invented a special apparatus as he was seeking for a solution to a severe personal health issue. This machine reconstructs natural materials on a sub-molecular level and turns them into permanent energy antennae.

These materials focus and enhance Tachyon and augment the body’s natural ability for self-healing and conscious evolvement. Dr. D. Wagner collaborated with Gabriel Cousens, a world accredited medical authority, who added his experience and knowledge. The outcome of this collaboration are the advanced Tachyon technologies and the Tachyon healing system.

Today, it is applied by holistic therapists, doctors, and health practitioners in more than 156 countries. Cocoon is one of the tools or applications of this advanced healing system. The cocoon strengthens and focuses the bio-field, which is all over nature, towards the body, in a similar way to a lens gathering and focusing the sunlight into a strong beam.

Given this chance, the body selects the frequencies needed at that certain moment in order to restore its balance. Tachyon cocoon creates an energy field that surrounds you and helps you to relax, detox, and charge batteries. Additionally, it has other benefits, such as promoting anti-ageing, balance, and therapy on all levels.

Traditional Thai yoga

Traditional Thai yoga massage appeared more than 2000 years ago in the temples of Thailand and was rooted in Indian yoga and Ayurvedic techniques. Its founder, Dr. Jivaka Kumar Bhacca, was Buddha’s personal physician and doctor of the monks in the monasteries of that time.

Thai massage works with palming, thumbing, and passive yoga stretching techniques. It is the only massage during which the recipient wears clothes. It takes place only on a mattress on the floor.

This massage stretches the muscles to their original size, rebuilds the joints’ flexibility, balances the meridians and the blood circulation, brings pain relief, agility, and flexibility. It also clears the mind and supports health.

Traditional Usui Reiki

Reiki is a pleasant, holistic healing method for the body, mind, and soul, originated in Japan in 1922. Dr. Mikaomi Usui, a Japanese-Tibetan monk, was inspired to create this healing method during a 21-day meditation on Mount Kurama.

It is a hand healing technique that connects you with the universal energy you consist of. Using this energy, a deep relaxation state is achieved. There, you can find peace, relief, healing, and empty space. Space that gives you the ability to see the bigger picture and the solution of the problems you face.

This healing method revitalizes the body and soul, strengthens the immune system, cleanses the body from toxins, unblocks and balances the energies of the body and mind, and broadens perception and consciousness. It is recommended for tiredness, anxiety, pain, injury, sleeping problems, and all kinds of health problems as a supportive therapy.
