8-Day Women's Only Retreat in Greece
Postponed - New Dates TBA
"Relationships are mirrors. They mirror the parts within us that still need to be healed." Cassandra Michael
This retreat is perfect for you if...
~ You identify as being an empath or highly sensitive.
~ You have a history of attracting partners who are emotionally unavailable, narcissistic or do not treat you with the love and respect you deserve.
~ You feel tired of always attracting the same type of relationship that just leaves you feeling disappointed, hurt and depleted.
~ You feel like you are walking on eggshells in your relationships and can't fully be yourself.
~ You have difficulties in identifying what your needs are and honouring them.
~ You find it hard to set healthy boundaries and try to avoid conflict at all costs.
~ You give 110% and then are left disappointed and hurt when your efforts are not reciprocated.
~ You loose yourself in relationships because you feel you have to be different or adapt, in order to be loved.
~ You find it hard to let go, trust and be vulnerable. True intimacy is challenging.
~ You feel uncomfortable in speaking your truth. You fear rejection, criticism and not being liked.
~ You engage in people pleasing , feel low on energy and depleted because you cater to the needs of others, instead of your own.

Location - Aegina Island
This 8-day Women's Only Retreat will be held on the beautiful Greek island of Aegina. Aegina is conveniently located only 40 minutes from Piraeus port with the fast boat. The port is about 45 minutes from Athens International Airport by taxi. Boats leave to Aegina every hour and tickets can be bought on the spot.
Aegina boasts a great number of sights and natural beauties, highlight of which is the famous Aphea Temple (500BC). It forms in fact an equilateral triangle with the Parthenon and the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion, the so-called “holy triangle” of the antiquity. For this reason the energy on the island is particularly special, and one of the reasons we choose this wonderful place to host our retreat.
To add to the mystical and healing energy of the island, In 1904, the miracle healer and saint Agios Nektarios relocated to Aegina and transformed an abandoned monastery into his home and place of worship. To this day, his monastery is one of the most visited sights on the island and thousands of people flock there every year to leave their healing requests. The energy present is undeniable. You will see for yourself! As part of the retreat itinerary, we will visit both these magical places. Apart from the historic sights you can enjoy beautiful beaches, majestic mountain landscapes, perfect weather and scrumptious greek food while hearing the crashing of the waves.
Accommodation - The Estate
For our retreat we have rented the gorgeous Kokkino Kastro Estate. It is set on a hill 800m from the centre of the town, nestled in pistachio and olive trees covering an area of 22.000m2. It boasts luxurious brick houses, a traditional windmill, fully equipped kitchen, a huge pool, tennis court and various outdoor spaces for our workshops and activities. The beach is only a 5 minute ride from the Estate.
Due to the size and setup of the estate, you can easily get some private time to integrate, recharge and relax. As empaths we know how important this is for you!
Testimonials
*These are from a 2 day relationship workshop I hosted recently in Bali and Thailand.
"Cassandra's workshop about breaking free from unhealthy relationship patterns was so well put together. She is so knowledgeable and professional, and at the same time, you feel very safe to share with her. She provided thought provoking questions to help us dig deeper, meditations and EFT, as well as a really safe space for us to share our challenges. I'd highly recommend working with her in a workshop or session if you get the chance to!"
Sabi from London
I was lucky enough to stumble across one of Cassandra's workshops in Ubud, right when I needed some guidance regarding my current relationship (thank you Bali magic!). We openly discussed our relationship issues and the deep-rooted causes for those issues. It was eye-opening! We meditated, we journaled, we connected. It was immensely healing and I resonated with a few of the souls there really deeply. I'd go as far as saying meeting Cassandra that day changed my life a little bit - my relationship, which I had been on the verge of ending - is now stronger than ever. Go redefine happiness with this woman!

Rim Guermazi
Holistic Wellness Coach & Yoga Teacher
You can sense my excitement for life from the moment you meet me. Yoga crossed my path and helped me develop awareness and a more loving relationship towards myself and others. My mission is to help others find peace, ease and contentment in their daily life. I truly believe we all have everything we need to transform our vision of ourselves, others and life in general. All starts from a place of self love. I help my clients pause, bring awareness to their life, question their thoughts and beliefs, trust their intuition and turn their ideas into a plan for a more aligned and fulfilling life.
I’m a certified yoga RYT400 teacher, meditation, massage, reiki, breath-work and TRE facilitator. As part of my practise, I also love incorporating sound healing and crystals, making each session a unique blend of different modalities from around the world.
