To live from the soul requires courage! From March 16 to 22, step into a sacred journey where truth is felt, not forced.
The retreat begins as the March Equinox and New Moon approach, aligning with Bali’s revered Nyepi period, the Balinese New Year, and Day of Silence. This is a time for renewal, planting seeds, and launching new visions.
Our gathering marks the start of an ongoing series, each one attuned to the rhythm of the Earth and the cycles of the soul. The first retreat is designed to help you reconnect with your inner truth and the quiet strength of your heart. Together, we’ll honour the traditions of Bali, share in the collective silence, and create space for deep reflection and rebirth.
The venue rests in Antagana on Bali’s West Coast, surrounded by rice fields and tropical gardens. Here, you’ll find a peaceful sanctuary immersed in the healing energy of Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. Each element supports your journey, offering grounding, inspiration, and transformation.
A Sacred Journey Aligned with Nyepi
The retreat integrates a day of connection with the local village, honoring purification and renewal rituals. During Nyepi, Bali comes to a complete standstill—no lights, no travel, only silence. We join the island in this sacred pause, experiencing the courage that arises in stillness. In this shared silence, you’ll sense the collective heartbeat of the land and its people.
The day before Nyepi, we walk to the local village to witness the Ogoh-Ogoh ceremony, in which effigies representing bhuta kala, or negative forces and evil spirits, are paraded and burned, symbolizing spiritual purification and the cleansing of negativity for the new year. The night before Nyepi, in our own fire ceremony at the Retreat, we release what is complete and step forward renewed, aligned, and soul-led. The energy of the equinox and new moon supports our intentions, helping us to plant seeds for the year ahead.
Gather in a sacred space for meditation and reflection
Retreat Setting: Sanctuary in Nature
Our venue at Antagana offers a quiet refuge where you can unwind and reconnect. The rice fields stretch out in every direction, and the gardens bloom with tropical color. Each morning, the sun rises over the landscape, bathing the retreat in gentle light. The natural beauty of Bali supports every step of your journey.
Paths wind through the gardens, inviting you to walk and reflect. Spaces for meditation and group sharing are woven into the landscape. The air carries the scent of frangipani and fresh, earthy soil. Birds call from the trees, and the rhythm of the land brings a sense of calm. You’ll feel the support of the elements as you explore your inner world.
Meals are prepared with fresh, local ingredients and fruits grown on the property, nourishing your body as you nourish your spirit. Our retreat team holds space for safety and trust, allowing you to let go of daily masks and meet yourself with honesty and compassion.
Find sanctuary in Bali’s natural beauty and spiritual energy
The retreat unfolds over seven days, offering a balance of group sessions, personal reflection, and connection with nature. Each day brings opportunities for movement, stillness, sharing, and rest. The program is designed to meet you where you are, honouring your unique path and pace.
We begin by connecting you to your dreams and visions—the desires you wish to bring into being. This foundation opens the door to deeper process work: walking your inner landscape, uncovering what’s been hidden, and awakening new aspects of self. Sharing, reflection, and feedback within the group field support your growth and integration.
In the evenings, we gather for quiet practices and rituals, allowing the day’s experiences to settle. The energy of the land and the collective intention of the group create a powerful container for transformation.
Walking Your Authentic Path of Truth
To Live from Soul Requires Courage
Many of us wear masks in daily life, hiding our true selves out of habit or fear. This retreat offers a safe space to explore and release those masks. You’ll meet and integrate the shadow, letting go of what holds you back from living in joy. Rediscover your essence—the part of you that feels free, radiant, and alive.
The group process invites honesty and vulnerability. Through guided practices, sharing circles, and time in nature, you’ll access the quiet strength within. The collective silence of Nyepi deepens this journey, making space for your soul’s truth to emerge. Each person’s experience is unique, yet we walk together, supporting one another as we step into greater alignment.
We honour the wisdom of the Balinese people and their rituals of purification and renewal. Their way of living in harmony with the land and spirit inspires us to listen more deeply and live more authentically.
The retreat program includes movement, meditation, and creative expression. These practices help you release what no longer serves and open to new possibilities. Each day, you’ll have time for personal reflection, journaling, and integration. The group field offers feedback and support, helping you see yourself more clearly.
We encourage you to bring your questions, dreams, and intentions. The retreat is a living ceremony, shaped by the energy and presence of each participant. As you walk the path of truth and stillness, you’ll discover the quiet courage that lives in your heart.
The land itself holds a gentle power. The rice fields, gardens, and sky invite you to slow down and listen. In this space, transformation happens naturally, without force or struggle.
Integration and Embodiment: Taking the Retreat Home
As the retreat draws to a close, you’ll leave with more than insight. Each participant creates a personal toolkit—a self-designed guide to help integrate and embody what you’ve experienced. This may include daily practices, affirmations, or simple rituals to maintain joy, connection, and alignment with your inner spirit.
We support you in making these tools practical and meaningful. The goal is to help you carry the courage of the soul into everyday life. Whether you return home to family, work, or new adventures, you’ll have resources to stay connected to your truth and stillness.
Ongoing support is available for those who wish to continue the journey. The retreat marks the beginning of a series, with future gatherings planned in Bali and beyond. Each one builds on the foundation of courage, truth, and renewal.
