For some... just being by the sea, breathing the fresh air scented with wild jasmine, walking barefoot on the earth, resting in the cool shade of an olive tree and eating fresh vegetarian food is deeply nurturing to the soul.

Add... two daily Kripalu yoga classes, yoga workshops, group meditations, exquisite heart-opening chanting, yoga philosophy satsangas, a soothing massage or two, and an attitude of "nothing to do, nobody to be and nowhere to go" and you will begin to observe yourself settling into stillness.

At Alexis Zorbas Retreat Center, on the northwest coast of the Greek Island of Corfu, you are far away from the ringing phone, the emails, the constant news reports, the traffic jams and the responsibilities and routine of your life.

Here you may take rest and slow down...
slow way down. Hang out at the beach or pool, read, wander through the olive groves, practice yoga, and enjoy solitude or the company of new friends.

If you are ready for an opportunity to travel on the yogic path of self-discovery, to treat your body to deep relaxation and to feel truly alive, then this may be the perfect yoga vacation for you.

You two are awesome! Keep up the good work, and we will keep coming back for more yoga and inspiration. Dixie & Memo, Bakersfield, CA

Thank you for creating and presenting a true "Kripalu Experience" in Corfu... a beautiful gift. I feel alive, awake and restored! This has been a magnificent Global Yoga Journey, inside and out. Donna, Texarkana, TX

I liked that I was given the opportunity in a totally supportive environment to take care of myself; to go within - notice what I needed and choose. Mur, Chicago, IL

I loved the accommodation...The views are breathtaking. The island interior is a wonderful place to explore during all the quiet times. Virginia, SLC, UT

Can't say enough good things! You guys were really great, well organized, knowledgeable, helpful, really well planned and concerned about everyone's enjoyment. Julie, Germany

Outstanding -if you'd asked me at the beginning I would not have believed that I would enjoy this setting so much. Sandy, Germany
