Our retreat is tucked between lush green mountains and the sparkling turquoise waters of the Turkish Riviera. Göcek offers a perfect sanctuary for those seeking stillness, reconnection, and timeless Mediterranean charm.
Known for its healing forests, crystal-clear bays, untouched beaches, olive groves, and endless sea views, Göcek invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and experience life at a softer, more soulful pace.
There are many direct flights to Dalaman airport from various European cities. More details below.
The Retreat Program
This four-day retreat is a sacred invitation to awaken the body, clear the mind, and nourish the soul – in the heart of pure, untouched nature.
We will gather for two daily sessions of yoga and meditation: one in the morning to welcome the day with breath, movement, and presence, and one in the late afternoon to unwind, release, and reconnect. All classes will be taught in English and guided by yoga teacher Yesim Yuva, whose practice is rooted in love, embodiment, and the beauty of presence.
Her style blends Vinyasa and Classical Hatha Yoga, always enriched with breathing practices and guided meditation.
We’ve designed a beautiful and intentional holistic wellness program together with our team on location – one that invites both transformation and rest.
The core of our days will revolve around morning and evening yoga and meditation sessions. In between, you’ll have the freedom to follow your own rhythm.
Here’s how your day at the retreat might look:
- 08.00 Yoga & Meditation
- 09.30 Breakfast
- 10.15 Beach / Nature Walks
- 11.00 Tai Chi
- 12.00 Pool
- 13.30 Lunch
- 14.00 Beach
- 15.00 Sound Healing
- 17.00 Yoga & Meditation
- 18.30 Sunset Ritual at the Beach

You’ll be fully supported – especially if you’re coming alone – and warmly welcomed into a like-minded community.
What You'll Take With You
The intention of this retreat is to reconnect you with your instinct, awaken your inner wisdom, and rediscover the beauty of simply being.
It is a space for letting go, for re-rooting in love, nature, and deep embodied presence.
For Yesim, yoga is a way of life – a path of connection to the self, to the universe, and to all beings. Through mindful movement, breath, and stillness, we open our senses to the subtle beauty of life, in nature, in each other, and within ourselves.
By the end of Soul of Nature, you will return home inspired – carried by the strength of your own inner light and the serene, wild beauty of the sea and earth.
Our retreat welcomes all levels of experience. Whether you are stepping onto the mat for the first time or looking to deepen your existing practice, you will be held and supported in a soulful space of presence and love.
