Pelias Life in Balance: A different kind of pigeon flies over Kardiani
Pelias Life in Balance is the new holistic recreation center in Tinos. Inspired by the pigeons and dozens of pigeon houses of the area (“pelias” means pigeon in ancient Greek), it prevails over the regional road, looking like embracing the entire traditional settlement of Kardiani. The center was created so as for each one of us to find moments of serenity and spiritual uplift, which results in being truly difficult these days. In this way, he will manage to have balance in his life.
In Pelias Life in Balance, several activities which encourage the much needed creative and therapeutic expression in body and soul, take place. The experiential workshops held here help all participants, of any age, to be happier and more balanced as well as not to hesitate fostering their creative ideas. According to Ms Markella Karamaouna, owner of the holistic center, “Pelias Life in Balance is open to any visitor. There are various activities for children and adults of all ages. More thoroughly, we aim to Greeks who seek for alternative recreation ways along with foreign visitors who love the minimal beauty of Cyclades and wish to experience something different”.
When asked the reasons why she selected the specific village and not any other one from the dozens spread all over the island, she replies: “My connection to Tinos has always been profound and strong, as I originated from the island, on my grandmother’s side. Since I was a kid, I visited often the island with my family. After several years, when I was a grownup, during a journey of mine to Tinos, I remember being on the ship and looking at a village which shined of beauty. It was placed into my heart straightaway. This village is Kardiani”.
