A few years ago Celeste Neelen took a group of people into the Sinai desert, to travel around in silence. Now she is going to lead a Silence Retreat on Limnisa, Methana. "The atmosphere on Limnisa is ideal" she says.
The silent retreat is for those who have a need for inner peace and renewal. For people who are in search of a more valid interpretation of their life and work. It is not necessary to have experience with meditation to take part.
The program is put together with extreme care by Celeste Neelen. Celeste has got the gift to combine her professional experience and knowledge as a consultant and psychologist with her warm nature and direct approach with people. In combination with the silence and the beautiful, supporting surroundings of Limnisa you will be inspired to take a fresh look at your own situation. This gives new energy to take future decisions with more depth and knowledge of yourself.
What participants to our last silent retreat said: "Limnisa felt like a warm bath. I felt welcome and safe. The location is superbe and you are a perfect team! I did a few more steps in the right direction towards my life goal. I have enjoyed your love and professional approach, each on their own subject."
Limnisa Centre offers single and shared accommodation for this retreat. The rooms are simple and stylish with a beautiful view over the Aegean Sea and the island of Angristri. Bathrooms and toilets are shared. You walk straight from your room, through the garden, into the sea. You can literally live with your feet in the water. Workshops take place in the garden, on the beach and on the roof terrace. The garden is dotted with tamarisk trees, orange trees, pines and shrubs, with only an old stone wall to separate it from the beach. Then it follows the line of the cliff, with rosemary, cistus and broom. A path leads to the next bay. There are plenty of sunny and shady places to sit.
Limnisa facilities: beach, library.
Nearby attractions and activities:
From here you can see the Saronic Gulf spread out all around; with five Islands including Aegina and Angistri, and the mountains of the Eastern Peloponnese with Epidavros nestling in their foothills.
A walk of 30 minutes along the picturesque road in the other direction takes you to Ag. Nikolaos, another small coastal village with tavernas on the sea front, and also a hot sulphur bath described by Pausanius nearly two thousand years ago. Or you can take a walk up the old mule paths above the centre, through a landscape of stone terraced slopes and old olive groves with views back down to the sea and out across to the islands.
Location:
Limnisa is on a little headland 20 meters from the beach.
Packages:
We start the day by waking up our bodies and minds through physical exercises and meditation. After a delicious breakfast on one of the garden terraces morning workshops will be held: body work, dancing, energy work, reflection and meditation.
After a freshly made, healthy lunch, you are free to spend the afternoon in your own way. You can choose to be quiet, or go for a swim or a walk. Each day is concluded with a meditation session.
After an introduction we will be quiet for 4 days. Afterwords we gradually build this up again. The program allow people who wish to do so, to stay quiet for a longer time.
