Euphoria launches five-week virtual retreat inspired by Greek mythology
BY Megan Whitby
Holistic Greek destination spa, Euphoria, has announced the launch of a free five-week immersive virtual retreat inspired by Greek mythology and the five elements.
Each week the retreat will explore and focus on one of the five elements – water, wood, fire, earth and metal – to help people reset and focus on their energy balance, as well as understand specific organs and their emotions in relation to each element.
The experience will be conducted online via a series of healing, grounding, and uplifting wellness practices and activities.
Every week participants will be guided through two 45-minute webinars by Euphoria’s founder, Marina Efraimolgou, and Euphoria’s spiritual mentor, Mary Vandorou, at 4:00pm (GMT+1) on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Tuesday’s webinars will introduce the physical element in focus that week, discussing organs, meridians, and acupuncture points and concluding with meditation based on Taoist principles.
Friday’s calls will centre around work on the emotional and spiritual aspect of each element, designed to open people’s energy paths.
The schedule will also include a video greeting by Vandorou or Efraimolgou every Monday to set the week’s intention and summarise learning from the previous week.
Energy exercises and Qigong will be offered on Wednesdays, while Thursdays will feature pranayama yoga and yoga asanas.
Efraimolgou said: “We’re recreating the qualities of Euphoria by providing people with the tools and guidance of the Euphoria Methods that are offered during our physical retreats at home.
“We’ve based our virtual offering on our signature retreat – ‘Emotional and Physical Transformation’ – and participants can join us for just one day, one week or sign up for the full five weeks to discover the power of all the elements.”
The resort’s philosophy – The Euphoria Method – upholds that people’s physical, emotional and spiritual selves are linked, which is strongly underpinned by the Theory of the Five Elements.
The element framework is used as a way of understanding internal energy constitution according to the various characteristics encapsulated in the five main elements in nature, which can also be applied to our personality type, behavioural patterns and the choices we make.
The retreat will launch on Monday 27 April and can be viewed via this link.
