Suncokret Dream
Your Holistic YogaRetreat on Hvar
Suncokret's Integrated Holistic Yoga Lifestyle Programs
Where every moment is an ascent to your center, and every level brings you closer to your Self and Purpose.
A Multi-Dimensional Experience
​
Suncokret's unique Integrated Holistic Yoga Lifestyle (IHYL) programs consist of a blending of our location, accommodation, meals, and Dalmatian lifestyle together with daily Yoga Sadhana, "deep-dive" meditation and journaling sessions, conceptualized outings, and dedicated free time.
This unique formula renders a masterfully transformative and deeply inspiring, multi-dimensional experience.
​
Sign up for "Balance and Bliss," our classic retreat program, which forms the foundation for all of our events, or take part in one of our theme-inspired events, such as "Yogi Explorer."
​
No matter your program choice, our unique holistic lifestyle programs are designed to restore a sense of well-being with yourself and the world around you.
Program Part 1: The Yoga Sadhana
Sadhana is a Sanskrit word that means a daily spiritual practice that connects you to Self, Source, and Purpose.
Our morning Yoga Sadhana includes a beautiful blend of mantra chanting, pranayama, yoga asanas (postures), relaxation, meditation, and holistic self-care practices that help you tune into yourself, the Divine, and the intentions you have for your life in a profound way.
The sadhana builds systematically each day of the week and will take you on a beautiful soul journey that will put you in touch with your chakras, your senses, the elements in your body, as well as your thoughts, feelings, and intuition. Its aim is to balance your body and mind while gently awakening your spirit.
The sessions last 90 - 120 minutes and will prepare you to greet the daily adventures in a state of balance and bliss.
Part 2: The Daily Deep-Dive Session
Our daily "deep-dive" sessions are designed to explore the interrelation between our senses, the elements that make up our constitution, and one of the 7 major chakras.
Through discussion, meditation, journaling, or other exploratory practices, we'll enrich our understanding of the intricate workings of our being. These sessions are customized to meet the levels and needs of our participants and are at the retreat, at the beach, or in hidden nature spots. Topics covered include the chakras, senses, and elements, as follows:
-
Day 1: Quick dive into the Chakras, Senses & Elements - Quiz & Self Assessment
-
Day 2: Grounding & Yoga for Conscious Living
-
Day 3: Creativity, Personal Power & Passion
-
Day 4: Confidence, Place & Purpose
-
Day 5: Love, Truth & Living with Integrity
-
Day 6: Inner Knowingness & Higher Consciousness
-
Day 7: Departure in a state of Balance & Bliss
During theme-based events, such as Yogi Explorer, as well as during events co-hosted by our team of teachers, the deep-dive topics and activities may vary.
For example, instead of a meditation session by the sea on Tuesday, as in Balance & Bliss, we may instead enjoy an elemental-connecting cycling experience during the Explorer program.
During co-hosted events with guest teachers, the deep-dive experiences will center around our visiting teachers' unique areas of expertise, such as exploring the power of dance, art, and other creative and/or holistic practices that help bring us closer to our true self.

"I appreciate your generosity in sharing your cultures through stories, food and excursions... This is a part of Croatia that can't be described in tour books!" - Marsha, USA
Parts 3 & 4: Daily Outings & Free Time
Off the mat, out of the retreat center, and around the island, we go!
In parts 3 and 4 of the program, we'll sweep you off on conceptualized daily outings, where you will have the chance to explore key parts of the island & the local way of life, and where you will enjoy dedicated free time to relax, reflect & rejuvenate in whatever way you choose; and yes, you can swim in our crystal clear sea every day during your dedicated free time, weather permitting!
