About Shri Gaia Institute

Mission & Vision

Shri Gaia Institute aims at raising awareness through mind, body, and spirit practices. With the ancient science of Yoga at its core, Shri Gaia focuses on conscious evolution through movement and stillness. By observing the subtle and gross movements of thought, emotion, breath, and body, and our relationship to the environment that holds us, we come to recognize the profound interconnectedness, creativity, and abundance of existence. These insights are not abstract; they are lived, embodied, and consciously applied. With this understanding, we train those who feel the call to deepen, refine, and transmit. To stand as practitioners, guides, and leaders in their own right.

Paleochora, known as the gateway to the Libyan Sea, is one of the most beautiful towns in the Chania prefecture, celebrated for its warm climate, welcoming atmosphere, and exquisite local cuisine. This picturesque village lies on a small peninsula framed by two stunning beaches.
