Yoga
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 90-minute 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 (pranayama) and guided meditation.
We’re currently putting the final touches on a beautiful daily schedule, filled with meaningful group activities and time to reconnect. You’ll be fully supported – especially if you’re coming alone – and warmly welcomed into a like-minded community.
Throughout the retreat, you will also have the freedom to create your own rhythm. In addition to our group yoga and meditation sessions, a variety of soulful activities will be offered: forest bathing, one-on-one massage sessions, spa treatments, breathwork, somatic movement, tai chi, sound healing, art therapy, and ancient ritual ceremonies. You can choose to join these offerings in community or enjoy quiet time to yourself – as your body and heart call 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.
Accommodation
For this very special retreat, we are honored to stay at AHAMA – a brand-new luxury bohemian hotel celebrating its grand opening in June 2025.
It is with deep gratitude that I have been personally invited to be one of the first yoga teachers to host a retreat in this unique and inspiring space.
Nestled between lush forests and the turquoise sea, AHAMA offers a harmonious blend of refined elegance and soulful, natural beauty. Each room is thoughtfully designed with its own character – combining luxurious comfort with bohemian spirit.
Spacious, bright, and individually styled, all accommodations provide an atmosphere of serene relaxation, ideal for resting, dreaming, and reconnecting after our daily practices.
As this is an intimate retreat experience, rooms will be assigned based on availability at the time of booking. While individual room selection is not possible, rest assured that every room offers the same beautiful attention to detail, luxurious quality, and connection to the surrounding nature.
You may choose to enjoy your own private room or to share with a friend or fellow participant. Sharing options will be available during the booking process if you wish to connect more deeply with others on this journey.
A soulful home for our days together – crafted with love, nature, and presence at its heart.
Dining At Soul Of Nature
At AHAMA, every meal is a journey – inspired by the rich traditions of the Aegean and the natural abundance of the Turkish Riviera.
Breakfast is lovingly included each morning, offering fresh and nourishing flavors to begin your day in harmony.
For lunch and dinner, you are free to explore a curated selection of à la carte restaurants within the resort – each with its own distinctive character and menu. From the vibrant tastes of Mezkla, to the refined atmosphere of Glasshouse, to the coastal influences of Êge Umi and the intimate setting of Ay, your senses will be invited on a journey of discovery.
Throughout the retreat, we will share beautiful group breakfasts and occasional dinners, celebrating connection and the art of slowing down together.
Yet, the rhythm of your day remains yours to create: whether you wish to dine with the group or savor a quiet meal in your own time.
Our retreat honors the nourishment of both body and soul – offering you the freedom to choose what feels most aligned in each moment.
