Journey to Greece
with Gopi Kinnicutt And Braja Kisori

Bhakti Shakti Women’s Retreat

Embracing and Coming Home to Your Shakti (Feminine) Wisdom

Your body is your greatest gift! Yet in today's society, we often find ourselves disconnected from the wisdom of our feminine essence. We possess an innate ability to heal ourselves and those around us. Harnessing your Shakti - feminine energy - Wisdom while staying aligned with Divine Shakti is key to navigating harmoniously through what seems like a masculine world.

Surrounded by a breathtaking landscape of sea and rock, Gopi and Braja, two yoga teachers, spiritual sisters and dear friends, will create a safe container where "wounded warriors" may share, be held and find a path to the heart of Divinity. We all hold traumas from the masculine imbalances woven into society and cultural conditioning. As we embrace our true nature as women and the many gifts born from our challenges, we uncover joy and a love supreme.

Healing may be revealed through understanding the Divine Feminine and how Goddess Shakti prevails throughout the universe. In the divine realm, as personified by the Goddess Sri Radha, Love is a union of the lover (Divine Feminine) and the beloved (Divine Masculine). They coexist in ultimate reality as two, though they are one. This mystery can only be revealed through Grace, the Divine Feminine.

Join Gopi and Braja on this journey. Explore your untapped feminine wisdom, reclaim your gifts and allow them to guide you to the ultimate reality of the Dance of Love.

Yoga, breathwork, movement, meditation, mantra and interactive discussion are all tools we will use to understand and embrace our sacred female bodies and their inner wisdom as we access the greater Divine Shakti power.

Our schedule will also include excursions to nearby sites to experience the beautiful gorges and archeology of Crete.
