OUR MOONHOUSE

Nestled within the tranquil landscape of the Cyclades, Moonhouse stands as a testament to our deep appreciation for natural beauty and the power of simplicity. These villas seamlessly blend modern design with the organic elements of the island’s terrain.

     Luxurious bedrooms in the main house serve as havens of comfort and style. Every detail, from the high-quality furnishings to the calming color palettes, contributes to an atmosphere of refined elegance throughout the property. On clear days, the islands of Mykonos, Delos, Riniea, Tinos, and Naxos are visible from the property.  Outside, we will enjoy the tranquil atmosphere and sea views from the terrace or the lower saltwater swimming pool.  

This retreat will be an interweaving of Kundalini Yoga and Breathwork guided by Akal Anand, rituals and practices guided by Adrienne. Rituals of tending to the body and opening to mystery and magic under the light of the moon.

OPEN TO THE ABUNDANT BLESSINGS OF LIFE AND COME INTO A RECIPROCAL RELATIONSHIP            WITH            THE EARTH.

CO-CREATIVE

  • Adrienne is a medicine woman, a messenger of the Earth, an herbalist, a guide, and a teacher. She loves nothing more than communing with the Earth + the elements and sharing their profound wisdom + gifts. Adrienne is trained in the Wise Woman Tradition of Healing, Sacred Plant Medicine, Holistic Healing, and Traditional Herbalism. Her path of study is one that explores the connection of the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual aspects of wellness in both linear + non-linear realms.

  • Akal Anand is a cosmic alchemist, a palm tree of dates in an oasis, walking barefoot on desert earth. Her service to the earth is to truth and bliss, honoring the awakening into our deathless nature through human form. With Kundalini Yoga and Breathwork as mediums, she shares her practice from a place of personal experience, simple and precious. Her engagement is with presence and elevating through heart to heart connection, fun and care.

ABOUT OUR HOST

Christiane Smit is more than just a talented ceramic artist; she is a traveler of life, a seeker of truth, and a creator who molds her experiences into timeless pieces of art. Christiane channels her life experiences and spiritual beliefs into her work with clay. She believes deeply in the power of going with the flow, allowing life’s events to guide her rather than resisting them. This philosophy is evident in her artistic process, where she creates from a place of inner stillness, letting her intuition and connection to the earth lead her hands.

     Christiane’s art is more than just objects; it is a reflection of her journey, a tangible manifestation of her spiritual and creative explorations. For her, each piece is a dialogue with nature, a conversation with the earth, and a testament to the beauty of living in harmony with one’s surroundings.

     Whether you encounter her pieces in a gallery, a quiet room, or even at Moonhouse itself, they are sure to leave an indelible mark—just as Christiane herself does on everyone she meets.
