Renowned author and alternative medicine advocate, Dr. Chopra will host The Future of Wellbeing four-night retreat at W Costa Navarino this September. The retreat, organised by Travelgems, the leading retreat company in Europe, has announced the special partnership that offers guests the chance to connect mind, body and soul while staying at the luxury destination set in the southwest Peloponnese region of Greece.
The retreat price of £4,800 for a double occupancy room includes all sessions, breakfast, dinner and four nights at the W Costa Navarino, which will take place from September 28 to October 2, with Dr. Chopra teaching from September 29 until October 1.
Dr. Chopra is a world-renowned pioneer in integrative medicine and personal transformation, and named by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people. He is founder of The Chopra Foundation, a non-profit entity for research on wellbeing and humanitarianism, and Chopra Global, a modern-day health company at the intersection of science and spirituality.
“I am very happy to announce that I am coming to Greece to run three days of teaching on various aspects of wellbeing. I will discuss in detail the future of wellbeing, the eight limbs of yoga, the path to love and the awakened life,” said Dr. Chopra.
Dr. Chopra will lead retreaters in themes around mindfulness, meditation and spirituality across three days, holding daily sessions addressing a number of themes including human relationships, meditation, self-healing, and body and mind experiences. Dr. Chopra’s own personal yoga teacher, Sarah Platt Finger, who co-authored Dr. Chopra’s book; ‘Living in the Light: Yoga for Self-Realization’, will also be running daily yoga sessions, offering guests the chance to delve into yoga as a form of self-discovery.
Founder and CEO of Travelgems, Niki Smirni, comments: “We are delighted to be hosting our first retreat at the newly opened W Costa Navarino this year, while welcoming an esteemed wellbeing practitioner, favoured by our retreaters who want to be enlightened on their path to self-discovery during our special curated trips. Dr. Chopra is the ideal expert to show our guests how relationships are very important for our healthspan, healing and lifespan, and how spirituality is important for the future of our wellbeing.”
During their four-night stay, retreaters will also enjoy the luxury destination of W Costa Navarino, which only opened in August 2022 and is designed as a Greek coastal village. The first W Escape in Greece, W Costa Navarino, offers a truly inclusive space where guests will be able to enjoy views directly out to sea as soon as they arrive.
