This retreat is intentionally kept small and intimate (around 7–10 people max) to allow for deeper connection, personalized support, and full presence.
It’s meant to be a space where you can feel seen, held, and supported throughout the entire journey. Which also means spots are naturally limited

Join us for a 6-night immersive retreat in Cyprus, where body-based healing meets rest, connection, laughter, and the natural rhythm of island life.
Taking place in early November, just outside Paphos (with easy access via Paphos or Larnaca airports), this experience is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with your body, and create space for real, lasting shifts — without the pressure of a ultra-packed schedule.
This is your invitation to step away from the noise, and into a space where you can soften, feel, and come back to yourself.
Gemini:
Escape the noise and land back in your body. Join us for 7 days in the quiet, sun-drenched hills of Tala for an intimate somatic healing experience designed to help you soften, release, and recharge.
This isn't just a retreat; it’s a dedicated space to bridge the gap between deep emotional work and the pure joy of being alive.
Get ready for...
...an intentionally curated space where you can drop into your body, be fully present, and leave feeling deeply nourished.
Instead of over-packed tight schedules, KEHA retreat has set its focus in creating a balanced daily flow that supports your nervous system and allows you to not only experience deep somatic shifts... but leaves also plenty of room for ease, fun, connection, and laughter.
Prepare yourself for:
deep, body-led healing in the supportive, spacious energy of Cyprus
getting out of your head and back into your body (a prerequisite for any transformation 🤌)
a nervous system that learns it’s safe to slow down, enjoy, and be fully you
moments of joy, play, and lightness (a cruicial part of emotional & inner child healing;)
time away from the constant input and output, giving you space to tune in and hear yourself clearly
connection with like-minded people
unforgettable life-long memories
and a full body exhale — returning back home feeling more connected to your body, more present in yourself, and waaaay more alive in your life 🤌
Retreat promise, vision, intention, vibe + TALK ABOUT SOMATICS?
This won’t be a ‘fully packed schedule from sunrise to sunset where you have barely time to breathe’ type-of-a-retreat. Nuh-uh.
The intention is to create a space where you can drop into your body, be fully present, experience deep healing mixed with fun for life and feeling deeply nourished.
...an intentionally created space for connection, healing, exploration, play, and rest.
The goal is simple: leave feeling connected, recharged, and alive (AF) 🤌
GPT:
This isn’t a retreat built on constant doing.
There is space here — for healing, for rest, for connection, for play.
Days unfold gently, guided by a balance of somatic work and real life enjoyment. We’ll move through deep, body-based sessions designed to support emotional release and nervous system regulation — and we’ll balance that with lightness, laughter, shared meals, and time to simply be.
Moments by the pool. Slow mornings. Music, movement, and meaningful conversations.
This is a space where you don’t have to choose between depth and joy — you get to experience both.
You’ll leave feeling more connected to your body, more present in yourself, and more alive in your life.
Gemini:
[Headline]
Deep Work Meets High Joy.
[Body] Imagine a week where the schedule isn’t "packed," but your heart is.
We don't believe in sunrise-to-sunset programming that leaves you breathless. Instead, we’ve created a flow that honors the natural rhythm of your nervous system. Here, deep somatic healing sessions are balanced with island exploration, afternoon dips in the pool, and long, slow dinners under the Mediterranean stars.
The Intention: To create a safe, grounded container where you can drop the "shoulds" and pick up yourself. We weave together:
Somatic Release: Moving through the heavy stuff to create space for the new.
Play & Exploration: Because laughter and curiosity are just as healing as tears.
True Nourishment: Feeling alive AF—connected to your body, the land, and the community around you.
Our island villa in Tala
Your private Mediterranean pearl 🐚
Nestled in the quiet hills of Tala, just above Paphos, this private villa offers space, privacy, and breathtaking views over the Mediterranean Sea.
With five bedrooms, a spacious kitchen, and multiple indoor and outdoor areas, there’s room to gather - and just as importantly, room to retreat.
Each bedroom opens up to beautiful views, while the private pool and surrounding terraces create the perfect setting for slow mornings, enjoying sunsets, and everything in between.
It’s peaceful, spacious, and intentionally chosen to support both connection and inner reflection.
About Cyprus 🇨🇾
Rooted in the Mediterranean culture, the island of Cyprus offers the perfect backdrop to look within and reconnect with the self.
The weather will be still warm and late-summery in early November with the private pool waiting and local pomegranates and grapes ready to be enjoyed. With the tourist season fading, everything becomes calmer, quieter, and more spacious. That means we get to experience the beaches, nature, and little charming villages without the crowds — exactly the kind of atmosphere that allows us to slow down, soften and really drop into the body.
Fun facts: the island has a left side traffic, uses UK plugs, speaks Greek, has Euro currency, and lots and lots of crystal blue waters with breathtaking views all around the island.
So all you got to know for now is "Kalimera!" (good morning) and "Efharisto!" (thank you) and you're good to blend in like a true local ;)

Why KEHA?
In Estonian (my native language), KEHA means "body." In Greek, it translates to SOMA.
Two languages, one ancient truth: your body is the vessel for every memory, every emotion, and every spark of transformation. The body is the site of our deepest healing.

Meet your retreat host
Gerly is a certified & trauma-informed somatic coach who is passionately dedicated to guide self-aware people (ahem, deep-feeling baddies) back into their bodies.
Through somatic work she helps you understand the deeper patterns behind your emotional responses and reconnect with your inner world.
...as an eldest sister and a neurospicy ex-overachiever, she has also studied nutrition, Reiki, mindset work, manifestation, different spiritual practices, psychedelic modalities, as well as been a fully licensed landscape architect (your girl is a cum laude civil engineer 💁♀️). Back in 2019 she did a whole 180° in her life, started her own business, solo-traveled the world for 3 years, and has finally settled on a quiet island life. All that to say - she brings a wholesome and holistic approach not only to her way of seeing the world, but to healing.
She believes strongly that healing is a reclamation of joy, not only a list of heavy lifting. She is known for her unique ability to hold the 'both/and' - meaning there is room for the full spectrum of you: the deep, messy emotional releases and the high-energy, playful celebrations.
Inside the KEHA retreat, Gerly holds a space that is both deep, easeful, and down-to-earth (and a bit woo;)) — where you’re not pushed or overwhelmed, but guided to meet yourself in a way that feels supportive, safe, and grounded.
Stepping into a room led by Gerly, you'll get a host who is fully in it with you. You can expect trauma-informed expertise, being deeply seen, lots of laughter, and a permission to be exactly who you are.
Feel the calling
This retreat is more than a destination - it’s a commitment to your nervous system and emotional wellbeing. KEHA is your space to get grounded, connect with your joyful essence, and reclaim your sense of aliveness.
Here's what's included:
trauma-informed somatic group healing sessions
yoga + movement practices
private somatic pottery class
Reiki, sound bath, and a relaxing massage
group conversations and reflection circles
time to journal, read, and relax by the pool
traditional Cypriot cuisine & Mediterranean hospitality
island exploration & snorkeling (optional)
shared meals and beautiful evenings together
and we'll be definitely carving some space for dancing! ;)
The retreat does not include:
flights and travel insurance
After years of searching the world for a place that feels like a true sanctuary, Gerly has finally found it, and she cannot wait to hold space for you here on the island of Cyprus. Your body is calling you home 🤍
See you in KEHA retreat!

What is somatic work and do I need any prior experience?
Somatic work is a body-based approach to healing. Instead of only talking or thinking things through, it works directly with the body, where stress, emotions, and past experiences are actually held and stored.
Through guided somatic practices you’ll begin to release any tension or suppressed emotions that the body still holds onto, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your whole self in a way that feels safe and natural.
You don’t need any prior experience. You’re guided every step of the way, and you’re always free to move at your own pace.
You can read more about somatic work & Gerly's approach to it here: https://gerlyto.com/
How can I best prepare myself?
Short answer? Just come as you are.
However, our journey together starts well before you arrive in Cyprus. To help you feeling grounded and ready, we provide:
• 1:1 Connection Call: A private call with Gerly to ensure you feel supported and ready to drop into the somatic work.
• Pre-Retreat Orientation Call: A group session to get acquainted, align our intentions, and answer any remaining questions.
• Preparation Guide: A detailed checklist (including weather-related tips) will be sent on your way, ensuring you have packed exactly what you need.
• Post-Retreat Integration Call: We meet again in a follow-up group session after the retreat to support you anchoring your insights and experiences back into your everyday life.
As we're keeping the the size of this retreat intentionally small (max 10 people), you can expect personal support and a space where you are truly seen from the moment you sign up 🤎
