Following The Rhythms

My first week in Greece has come and gone…

Within 7 days the rhythms of my life have changed drastically. 5am isn’t an accidental false alarm or an unexpected bathroom run proceeded by warm covers and at least a few more hours of rest…5am is now a complete rising (sun not fully up rising). When I signed up for a 28 day yoga retreat in Greece I didn’t know what to expect, but being the adventurous soul that I am I ran full speed ahead. My life seemed to be inviting the opportunity for something different in my reality. This is what my schedule looks like for the next month…

Meditation-6:30am
Morning Yoga class- 7:15am-9am
Breakfast- 9am
Alignment class- 10:30am-1:30pm
Lunch-1:30pm
Break- 2-5pm
Philosophy & Theory- 5:30pm
Evening Yoga class-6:30pm- 8:15pm
Dinner-8:30pm

Did I really agree to this? Ha!

Fortunately…

We do get a bit of a break from the rhythms on Sunday! This past weekend we decided to explore the Heraklion, Crete City Center!

Highlights included; morning hike, fish spa pedicure, Koules Fortress, the market place for lunch, lots of gelato and plenty of laughter…

Koules Fortress (Heraklion City Center)

I have willing chosen to partake in a different rhythm of life to challenge and heal myself wholistically. Late nights, early mornings, unpredictable adventures, beautiful sunsets over the Mediterranean Sea. I breathe deeply take it all in and sit in gratitude for all life has to offer.
