Overview
About this retreat
Poliana & Elena are joining hearts, skills, and inspirations to create a sacred immersion for women - held in the heart of nature. Through embodiment practices and ceremonial journeys, this retreat becomes an integrated healing experience - guided by two women with their own unique qualities, experiences, and tools, who have held hundreds of women, circles, and healing sessions, walking through transformation and awakening. This retreat unites their years of experience, woven into one field of wisdom and love. For 9 Days & 8 Nights We will explore the depths of our wild nature, sexuality, and feminine ancient wisdom, as well as dedicate time to connect with the healing power of the land. Why Bali? •Bali is a land where water is revered as sacred, carrying centuries of ritual devoted to purification and renewal. •The Balinese water temples and holy springs hold the vibration of cleansing, rebirth, and devotion to life. •Water, as a living element, mirrors the essence of our work with women, the womb, sexuality, and the restoration of harmonious flow in the body and in life. •In this special land, surrounded by nature’s beauty and the spirit of ceremony, our journey becomes both personal and collective - a remembrance of the sacred feminine through the living force of the element that nourishes all creation. We Will Dive Into • Voice, Heart, and Womb Activations • Sexual Alchemy, Boundaries & Pleasure • Healing the Instincts and Reconnecting to Wildness • Reclaiming Self-Love & Releasing Body Shaming • Sex, Power, and Social Conditioning • Womb Gates Cleansing, Healing & Blessing • Myth Decoding and Feminine Archetypes • Elemental Rituals & Sacred Ceremonies • Ritual Trance Dance, Ancient Greek & Sufi Dance She Who Remembers - The Intention There is a place inside every woman that already knows. A place where the body speaks an ancient language, where pleasure is sacred, prayer is decolonized, and joy is revolution. A journey for women ready to return to the wisdom of their soul, to reclaim their feminine power and vulnerability, To reconnect with the forces of Nature and ancient practices to walk again in rhythm with the living pulse of creation. An invitation to take off the layers of conditioning to come home to your body as temple, your pleasure as birthright, and your being as a living ceremony. A celebration of the feminine in all her forms. Feminine Rewilding We will reconnect with the instincts and rhythms that live beneath the surface, the ones silenced by social conditioning. Through body, breath, voice, and dance, we will awaken the primal intelligence that guides us to authenticity and freedom. Through rituals in nature, we will remember • Returning to our wild nature • Decolonization of the sacred • Our primordial connection to power • Shameless untamed presence • Reclaiming joy and innocence • Trust our senses and our inner cycles • Live from the truth of the heart • Elemental embodiment • Stepping fully into our vitality, honoring the unique, untamed rhythm of our being. Embodied Sexuality We journey through breastwork, de-armoring, shamanic practices, and breathwork, releasing the physical and emotional armor. Through gentle yet powerful practices, we will explore: • Sex and power - unlearn patriarchal dynamics of sexual intimacy • Touch and pleasure - awakening sensitivity and self-trust • Intimacy and boundaries - cultivating conscious connection through respect, clarity, and learning to open from a safe space • Sexual alchemy - transforming creative energy into healing and expansion • Relationship with image and body - identify and heal deep-rooted guilt and shame, encountering reverence for our unique expression • Sacred Sexual gates - connect with the sacred energetic & body gateways to awaken pleasure and release trauma. Ceremonial & Shamanic Work We will enter the realm of shamanism and element-based practices in communion with Nature - diving into their ancient magic and the animistic forces of creation. • Ritual Trance Dance, Ancient Greek & Sufi Dance - Through ancient movement rituals, we enter the mysteries of body and spirit. Guided by rhythm and breath, we dance the wisdom of the ancients, where movement is prayer. • Shamanic Drum journeys - journey with the sacred drum into the subconscious, uncovering what the soul most needs to heal and awaken. • Sweatlodge (Temazcal) - entering the warm, dark womb of the Earth, where water meets fire. A deep purification ceremony that strengthens the spirit and allows purification to reach deeper into our skin and soul. • Plant Wisdom Ceremonies - receiving the guidance of the sacred plant kingdom - the Earth’s gift of awakening, transformation and healing. Expanding consciousness, opening the heart, and freeing us from limitations so we come closer to our divine path.

About Elena & Poliana
Poliana Dimitropoulou Ameyali Ceremonial Leader · Guardian of Ancient Intelligence & Cross-Cultural Heritage · Mythweaver · Women’s Empowerment Facilitator · Holistic Healer Founder of RHEA Temple – Ritual Healing Arts and Μελίρειες – Ritual DanSing Drumming, Poliana weaves holistic healing, ritual, singing, dance, and women’s circles rooted in spiritual connection and embodied remembrance. Her path of 18 years is devoted to the synthesis of ceremony and expressive arts inspired by ancient traditions. A world traveller and student of ancestral wisdom, she has studied with teachers and shamans from Greece, India, Mexico, Brazil, and Native American tribes, bridging diverse lineages into an integrated practice. Her offerings include shamanic journeys, hypnosis, meditation, intuitive counselling, storytelling, and sacred plant integration, as well as Passage Ceremonies such as ritual weddings and baby blessings, carried with the heart of a modern priestess. Poliana spent 7 years among Native American elders, receiving direct teachings and blessings to hold traditional ceremonies. Returning to Greece brought the mythic and ceremonial ways of Ancient Greece into her practices and rituals. With her drum as a compass, she guides women through journeys of remembrance, healing, and empowerment. Poliana’s vision is rooted in Reclaiming the Sacred and nurturing an awakened life grounded in harmony and authenticity. At its heart lies the preservation of cultural heritage and the living wisdom of ancient traditions - timeless teachings that guide humanity toward remembrance and deeper connection. Through her ceremonial and artistic work, she offers her service to the restoration of grace and reverence in the world, a prayer in action for life itself. *** Elena Michalopoulou -Selene Shakti Yoga Therapist ~ Holistic Womb Practicioner ~ Somatic Shamanic Therapy ~ Ritual Embodiment Healer Elena is a guide devoted to the art of embodied healing. She studied Marketing, Interior Architecture (BA), and holds a Master’s in Design Engineering and Innovation. She studied dance and various forms of yoga (500hr), including yin, prenatal yoga, and therapeutic yoga. She is a doula and a womb yoga therapist, and has studied trauma-informed healing modalities such as trauma-informed yoga, healing touch, somatic shamanic therapy, and de-armouring therapy, in an attempt to understand and heal trauma at its root — in the body — through a holistic approach. For many years, she has studied the healing of the feminine, both as a collective energy and through the body of a woman - the womb space. Her studies include sexual healing for women, holistic womb therapy, and shamanic womb work, as well as the decolonization of archetypes and myths for women. She has dived into ritual and sacred priestess work, as a way to honour and serve the sacred feminine and the Goddess herself. For more than ten years, she has learned, taught, and explored healing modalities both ancient and modern, seeking to understand the connection between energetics, the nervous system, and the emotional body. In 2015, she created Selene Shakti in honour of the Goddess and the feminine energy, born from the understanding that this world needs collective womb healing. She holds workshops, retreats, and therapies for men and women, with the intention to heal the inner polarities of the masculine and feminine. Her work is a combination of the sacred with the somatic. She is walking her path with humility, devotion, and reverence for her teachers and mentors around the world.
