From Soul to Sea, Greece Writing Retreat

Hosted by Wide Open Writing, our retreats focus on Living Your Creative Life.  With daily morning yoga, two writing workshops per day, one-on-one sessions, and a fabulous evening salon, we offer a space that breeds creativity and transformation. We also recommend and leave time for walks, shoreline wanderings, naps, sunrises, sunsets, laughter, and nourishment of body and soul. We encourage a widening of the gap between these moments and the ones we’ve temporarily disengaged from (grocery shopping, phone calls, dental appointments, laundry), and that you sink into the experience of reconnecting with your senses and your writing.
