Yuj in Sanskrit means “to unite.” It’s the origin of the word yoga: a physical, mental and spiritual practice.
“Yuj Healing” is a boutique yoga and healing retreat, a place where you can study tools and practices to empower your mind, body and soul - finding healing through yoga.
Join us on Mykonos Island on a passage of realisation and growth. Breathe and reconnect with nature, slow down that fast pace, decompress from city life and remind yourself about simple healthy habits.
A truly restorative journey of healing through yoga, suitable for all levels.
Why Yuj Healing Stands Out: Imagine the serenity of dwelling beside the sea, engaging in yoga, breathwork, and meditation, all while feasting your eyes on the azure expanse of the Aegean waters. The retreat's ambience, painted in nature's hues and aromas, is an invitation to dream, relax, and discover your inner calm.
Yuj Healing is not just a retreat, but a journey. Grounded in the 8-limbed philosophy of Yoga from Patanjali's sutras, we delve deep into an array of healing practices daily. From mastering meditation and breathwork, aligning postures, and indulging in restorative yoga, to experiencing the transformative power of reiki, we guide you through holistic techniques. These aren't just practices; they're essential life tools, often overshadowed in our bustling modern lives. Here, we reintroduce them, empowering you for a harmonious life.
Benefits and Reasons to Choose This Retreat:
Reconnection: Rediscover yourself after an extended period of disconnection.
Rejuvenation: Unwind, recharge, and revitalize your spirit.
Learning Opportunity: Embrace a new and enriching practice, different from your usual routine.
Focused Self-Care: Nestle in a haven designed for undistracted self-care.
Tranquillity: Immerse in peace and silence, rejuvenating both mind and body.
Natural Escape: The perfect locale to detach, surrounded by nature's beauty.
Unplug: Get a rare opportunity to disconnect from everyday life.
Holistic Living: Step away from urban chaos and reintegrate healthy habits for your mind and body.
Every day will begin with an hour of Pranayama and Meditation, followed by an hour of Vinyasa flow practice.
After the morning sessions, you will get to cool down and gather around the table for a delightful brunch and then spend the afternoon relaxing on one of the numerous turquoise water beaches of the island, wandering around the picturesque Mykonian old town, admiring some of the finest examples of Cycladic architecture, or even take a 2min walk to our beach bellow.
In the Evenings, you will get to experience our various daily workshops and ceremonies, like: Restorative styles of yoga, Yin yoga, Sun salutation workshop, Alignment of yoga posture, Arm balancing, Healing practices, Reiki and our Cacao closing ceremony of course!
Our daily family dinner is served following the workshop and the late evening is free to relax, read, process or rest before you go to bed.

The retreat is located in one of the most distinct areas of Mykonos island, in a serene landscape with unobstructed clear blue sky views, overlooking the Aegean Sea and the Cycladic Islands of Delos, Paros, and Naxos. The retreat's private beach, just a two-minute walk through a stone path, is shared between our complex and the well-known Santa Marina Resort.
Mykonos is the ultimate gem of the Aegean Sea and one of the most popular island destinations in Greece. A perfect combination of blue Aegean waters and a true celebration of life, holiday, and gastronomy. Discover the beauty of the Greek island life through sunny beach bathing, mesmerizing sunsets, and nature’s simplicity.
The architectural language of the Cycladic island complex consists of a harmonious mix of white houses, cobblestone streets, iconic island traditional windmills, and crystal blue waters.
Walking around the island you will find freshly baked bread from family-owned bakeries and a plethora of garden-fresh fruits and vegetables. There are numerous must-visit traditional and modern restaurants around as the island is very famous for its strong gastronomy.
Living by the sea, whilst practicing Yoga overlooking the view of the Aegean blue waters. The colors smell and light is the protagonists of this setup, allowing you to dream, relax and find your inner tranquillity.
We are located right at the beachfront of Agios Lazaros neighborhood, only 10 minutes’ drive from the airport, port and Mykonos Town.
