Meditation and Yoga

Lesvos is a place of special energy and light, known since antiquity for its hot springs with therapeutic properties. The springs, combined with rich nature and enchanting landscapes, offer visitors the chance to rejuvenate body and spirit, constituting a valuable tourism resource for the island. Since the 1960s they have attracted a steady following and have become linked to a network of wellness services and internationally renowned yoga schools. Key destinations for yoga and meditation are Molyvos, Eftalou, Eresos, and Mytilene, where experienced teachers offer short seminars that help participants shed stress and find inner balance. A highlight is the Lesvos International Wellness Festival, held every September, which invites visitors from around the world to experience the island’s healing power and spiritual wealth.
