This Yoga, Wine & Painting Retreat In Greece Needs To Be Your Next Girls' Trip

by Jasmine Vaughn-Hall

There are three things that when combined together, have you setting sail for an ultimate trip to euphoria: wine, relaxation, and yoga. Wine yoga retreats are an actual thing, and before you think the two are conflicting ideas, think again. The appeal of nationwide wine yoga retreats is that you're not only getting that zen from hitting that downward dog, but you're also sipping on delicious wine that is balancing the hell out of your palate. Wine tasting is always a dope follow-up activity to anything.

These retreats provide you with a great opportunity to unwind and have some fun with your friends. You'll meet all kinds of people, including instructors who are ready to help you reach your full potential. These events happen all over, and if you're feeling super adventurous, going out of the country to any one of these retreats would be exceptionally awesome.

I mean, wine from a different country? How tasty and awesome is that? Besides, a wine retreat may not have been on your bucket list specifically, but once you attend, you're going to wonder why it wasn't scribbled in all along. Again, these retreats are up for grabs all over the place and you'd be lucky to hit that Child's Pose, glass in hand, at any of these events.
