7 Day Retreat in Kefalonia, Greece
Escape to Kefalonia: A Retreat for Rest, Renewal & Reconnection
After a sold-out retreat in May 2024, I’m returning to our stunning venue on the Greek island of Kefalonia. Vericoco is a peaceful sanctuary designed for deep rest and rejuvenation. Nestled among olive groves, with breathtaking views of Mount Aenos and the Ionian Sea, this is a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and have room to breathe.
With a wooden deck for yoga and movement practices, two beautiful pools, and plenty of serene spots to relax in nature, our retreat space is also just a short walk from beaches where you can relax and swim (or paddle!) in the sea.
Whether you’re unwinding by the water, moving through a guided yoga practice, or enjoying nourishing meals prepared by our wonderful kitchen team, every part of this experience is designed to support your well-being.
Let me take care of the planning while you come to enjoy and relax
Led by an experienced retreat teacher with seven years of guiding retreats worldwide, this week offers a blend of yoga, movement, breath, and relaxation practices to help you cultivate balance. And with all meals lovingly prepared for you—catering to gluten-free and other dietary needs—you can fully immerse yourself in rest, knowing everything is taken care of.
Join me for a week of ease, connection, and relaxation in this peaceful village, while supporting a wonderful local business.
Daily Yoga
Each day will have a mix of flow and restorative classes. There'll also be workshops to help you deepen your Yoga practice and the opportunity to get personalised support from me. Yoga retreats allow for much more space and time to ask questions and adapt the practices to support your unique needs so you can leave with new inspiration and self-understanding.
Relax & explore
Over the course of each day there will be free time to explore the beautiful island of Kefalonia and all that its stunning landscapes and beaches can offer. Take a solo walk to reflect or team up with other participants to explore together! I’ve been to Kefalonia 3 times so I know the island and would be delighted to advise you on the best places to visit.
“Perfect combo of mindfulness, effort, creativity and fun!”
— Nathalie, guest from 2024 Kefalonia retreat
Teacher / Retreat Host
Hi, I’m Jasmine, a yoga teacher with 8 years of yoga teaching experience, passionate about making movement and rest more accessible. My journey with my own yoga practice started about 20 years ago, and it has been a key tool in learning to listen to my body, advocate for my needs, and find sustainable ways to support myself.
I completed my foundational 200-hour YTTC in India and went on to study Yoga Therapeutics, Accessible Yoga, Trauma-Informed Yoga, and the Integral Movement Method, shaping my approach to teaching with inclusivity and care at its core.
I’ve taught yoga on and guided over 15 retreats in five countries and love the transformative experience a retreat offers. There’s something truly special about stepping away from the day-to-day, immersing yourself in movement and rest, and connecting with others on the journey.
As a coeliac, I make sure dietary requirements are thoughtfully accommodated, and every retreat I run is designed with care.
Beyond yoga, I bring lived experience of neurodivergence and chronic illness, including hypermobility and related conditions, which has deepened my understanding of how to support a wide range of bodies and experiences. My aim is to create a space where you can tune in, explore movement with curiosity, and truly rest — without pressure, expectation, or comparison.
“It's amazing, you won't regret it! All you have to do is turn up and enjoy yourself, nothing else to think about it!”
— Emma, guest from 2024 Kefalonia retreat
Retreat Location - The Beautiful Island of Kefalonia
Vericoco Retreat in Kefalonia, Greece, is a space designed for creative practices and relaxation. It offers guests the chance to reconnect with nature alongside like minded people. It’s a place to stop, step back and recharge.
Vericoco was founded in 2015 by Greek-British Lena and her partner Nikos who is local to Kefalonia. I carefully select who I partner with for retreats and having already collaborated with Lena and Nikos last year, I’m so looking forward to returning to vericoco and supporting this local family run business.
Retreat Centre - A Peaceful Space
The Greek island of Kefalonia is a beautiful space that I have visited 3 times already.
With the bluest waters I’ve ever seen, Kefalonia is a sparkling island that's bound to re-ignite your creativity and sense of wonder. The island boasts beautiful landscapes, traditional villages, and stunning beaches. Furthermore, Kefalonia is not overcrowded with tourists, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of our quiet, secluded spot.
Getting there
From Cephalonia International Airport (EFL), you can take a 15-minute ride from the taxis available at the airport. If you prefer sharing a taxi with other participants, the organiser can help coordinate a taxi service depending on how people’s arrival times match up. Please send an inquiry for further information.
“Amazing location, incredible food, yoga for all levels, super nice group of people - would recommend.”
