About Ilias Kousis

Ilias Kousis is an experienced and caring advanced Forrest Yoga teacher from Oslo who hosts retreats each year at Vale de Moses. Join him for a deeply transformative and memorable experience. The journey includes Forrest Yoga physical practices, ceremony, vision quest, and workshops focused on healing injuries. Set in untouched nature, far from city noise, excessive radiation, and pollution, this environment offers pure air and clean water that can support a noticeable shift in both body and brain function.

Personal Philosophy

Forrest Yoga helped me discover my true purpose and, even more importantly, gave me the courage to pursue it. Through this practice, I came to see how fear and insecurity had been undermining my life and keeping me from speaking my truth. It feels clear to me that everything we do in life is rooted in our spiritual and emotional wellness. There is plenty of evidence that trauma and spiritual disconnection can become hidden causes of physical imbalances and chronic illness. Many of today’s health challenges, including addictive behavior, depression, anxiety, autoimmune disease, and chronic pain, stem from our separation from our spiritual nature. On a broader level, this same disconnection has led humanity to act against the harmony of the planet, even threatening the future of our species within just a few generations. Our future on this planet depends greatly on our choice to Walk in Beauty.

Mission

By sharing the tools of Forrest Yoga alongside my own insights and life lessons, I hope to help “Mend the Hoop of the people” by guiding others beyond conditioning, fear, and self-limiting beliefs so they can embody their Spirit. What I know for certain now is that human potential has no limit, and I want to help you experience just how true that is.

Mentorship

Ilias also offers a wonderful mentorship programme during the week for selected individuals.
