Feel Alive Again at Euphoria Retreat Greece

Never more needed and never more relevant - the most progressive spa outpost in Europe, Euphoria Retreat, introduces “Feel Alive Again” – a movement, a mindset, a concentrated programme offering - which proposes an innovative pathway to negotiating a post-pandemic world with fresh energy, vigour and playfulness.

Centered on recovery and renewal, the ‘Feel Alive Again’ concept is about processing the past, releasing the negative, feeling safe and secure, reconnecting with people and harnessing both inner strength and flexibility. Whether enjoyed as an immersive scheduled programme, as an add-on to Euphoria’s other existing retreat programmes, or dipped into and absorbed by community osmosis – the Feel Alive Again movement is about walking into the future with passion, positivity, and purpose.

Throughout the year, guests can enjoy varying Feel Alive Again components, which will be held across the resort - including picnics and sunset gatherings, breathwork classes by the swimming pool and nutritional workshops. Five Elements meditations and fun and expressive dance and performance work rooted in the Greek myths and tragedies (with a whole new purpose to ‘mask’ wearing and the release of emotions) will all be on offer, as well as journaling, forest treasure hunts, music and mandalas. Feel Alive Again is for anyone looking to step into the new, feel like themselves again, reintegrate and reignite.

A more immersive and new four-night ‘Feel Alive Again’ Group Retreat, hosted and run by effervescent founder Marina and the wonderfully wise Mary Vandorou, is recommended to those who might be feeling exhausted, lethargic, lost, lonely or in need of extra support. With a maximum of 9 participants, scheduled sessions incorporate everything from emotional expression work and theatrical improvisations to creating your personal mandala incorporating a vision of your future. This is a journey designed to help guests purge and process the negative emotions that have built up, perhaps even subconsciously, during the time of the pandemic. It is a chance to reconnect and reenergise.

Feel Alive Again Group Retreats will run on select dates throughout the year. Prices for the three-day retreat start from €890pp and include a minimum of 3-hour daily sessions with two mentors each morning (accommodation and meals are extra). Participants will undergo ‘peace-of-mind’ Covid tests to ensure the safety of the group.  

From the incredible array of therapies to the extensive spa facilities (which include the legendary Sphere Pool as well as steams, saunas, yoga and pilates studios), a stay at Euphoria Retreat is all about encouraging a fresh approach to living.  Whether you opt for the full Group Retreat programme or layer just a couple of the ‘Feel Alive Again’ components into your stay, leave with your body and mind in connection, your heart open. Relight your fire!
