Summer Retreat - The joy of being
August 23th - August 29th 2021
7 days - 6 nights
We invite you to a unique refreshing and healing retreat that will take place at Guesthouse Rodamos. A magical location at 1000m in the heart of the forest of Holomontas Natura protected area, which is just a few kilometers from the beautiful crystal blue beaches of Halkidiki. We will share with you the valuable experience in yoga, meditation and ThetaHealing®. The healing energy of the retreat will empower and inspire you on all levels. During the retreats we always make sure that every day is unique for you. At the end of the day you will have a wonderful sense of harmony and joy. This is a result achieved through our practices but also of the abundant energy that prevails in the location. The energy of the place keeps us holistically in the present. The alternation of mountain and sea offers us a variety of experiences. Halkidiki is well known for its countless beaches that are only a few kilometers away from each other. A cruise will be held around Mount Athos. This is for sure an once in a lifetime experience. Our goal in every retreat is to experience the abundant energy, the joy, the carefree, the calmness , the vitality, the connection with the present and with yourself.
In order to ensure you the best experience, this retreat is limited to 10 people. Contact us now to resure your place.

Practices & experiences
Yoga
Our teaching is based on Satyananda system. Satyananda is a holistic yoga system that covers all levels of our being and reciprocates the needs of contemporary society. It gradually leads to physical wellness, mental emotional and spiritual stability and self discovery. A regular class includes asana, pranayama, mantras and yoganidra.
Meditation & Mindfulness
The subject of meditation is the mind. So it is necessary to prepare our body with the asana to be able to sit quietly in a proper position for our meditation practice. We do our meditation in the setting sun, either by the beach or in the forest and many times we compline it with walks.
ThetaHealing
ThetaHealing technique is a meditation process that results in physical, psychological and spiritual healing. ThetaHealing sessions are generally individual but in our retreats we use techniques that we can work in groups.
Time for you
In your free time you can go for a walk in the forest, horse riding, swimming in the sea or in the pool or just relax in the calming environment of the hostel as we have it exclusively.
For culture lovers
Agion Oros
A cruise around Agion Oros is for sure once in a lifetime experience. An independent state, Agion Oros consists of 20 Greek Orthodox monasteries. It is inhabited by 2.000 monks and it's the only monastic state in Europe, one of very few in the world.
Aristotle's Birthplace
Stagira is known as the birthplace of Aristotle. Today, guests can visit the remaining ancient city and Aristotle's park with its interactive instruments displaying the laws of physics, as described in his books.
The story of Rodamos guesthouse by the owner
Rodamos Guesthouse was founded in 2008 through the passion of a local family.
"We unravel a homemade story which is built on two core beliefs:
- Promote the natural beauty of Halkidiki and specifically Holomontas mountain via its unique high quality local products.
- Provide warm and cozy hospitality to every guest.
The brand is launched as an extension of our home: we cook in our kitchen as we cook in our own house and we welcome you to the lobby as we would in our living room. For our family, all customers are our guests and we offer them a unique experience of relaxation an tranquility, with our best smile!
We truly respect the ecosystem that surround us! We only use what is needed of the environment and never make unnecessary use of materials."
