Mind of the Body™ Sensit Yoga Somatics retreats are a week-long invitation to come home to the body — gentle, grounded, and guided by Maja Zilih, systemic family psychotherapist-in-training and founder of Sensit Yoga™ Somatics, with over 20 years of teaching experience.
7–13 June 2026
A 7-day retreat at Agios Pavlos, southern Crete. Twice-daily practice of mindful somatic yoga, interoceptive awareness, and psycho-emotional self-care, guided by Maja Zilih. June offers long warm days, long evening light, and the freshness of early summer.

Through embodied intelligence, breath awareness, guided reflection, journaling, and listening to different inner parts, we explore how emotional experience is held and expressed through the body. We gently release the restriction patterns in the fascia, which calms the mind and brings a sense of relief and comfort in the body.
For twelve consecutive years, the retreat has returned to the same magical place on the southern edge of Crete: Agios Pavlos, with its 180° view of the Libyan Sea, untouched beaches, and the quiet rhythm of the coast.
An invitation to move while listening deeply to the subtle intertwining of sensation, thought, breath, and the impulse for movement — to discover what becomes possible in the meeting places between physical awareness and mental acceptance.
Maja is the founder of Sensit Yoga™ Somatics and Athens Yoga Center. She is a systemic family psychotherapist in training under supervision at Sigmund Freud University Vienna, and an E-RYT 500h Yoga Alliance registered teacher and teacher trainer with 20 years of experience.
