ESSENCE OF BALI RETREAT OFFERINGS

Meditation | Yoga

The  daily schedule consists of morning and evening restorative Yoga and   guided meditation. As well as evening Yoga Nidra and Heart opening  meditation, mantra and chanting sessions. Meditations and body movement  will focus on self care and trust, deepening compassion, arousing your  inner voice and enlivening your spiritual centre.

All participation is optional as our retreat aims to promote freedom and natural personal rhythm.

Healing | Woman’s Circle

A  local spirit healing is also on offer. This involves a day trip to the  healers village and a water hole were a traditional 7 part healing will  take place in the river system. An alternative to this is the  opportunity to have a healing on the property with our Reiki Master and  host Aneesha.

Sharing and healing circles for meeting your true  nature and expression of your voice will be a daily option. These  circles are carefully considered for the healing and vulnerability that  we experience and our instructors are trained in holding space and  nurturing your deeper feelings. This is often a deeply transformation  and healing experience. Our meditation and asana practices prepare the  body and the spirit for this transformation to occur in a more gentle  and harmonious way.

Freedom dancing/movement  by candlelight (on alternate evenings).

Body Work

A daily massage will also be available by the local property body workers, (the best in town, apparently).

Ceremony | Woman’s Circle | Fire Dance

We  will also be having a sharing circle one evening or afternoon and as we  will be blessed with an auspicious (Balinese) full moon (June 3), this  will include a fire ceremony and traditional Balinese dancing

Gita by the Pool

A  dream come true! Megan will be doing Gita (Bhagavad) readings and/or  readings from Sri Aurobindo’s ‘Synthesis of Yoga’, By the pool; with  open discussion. Megan will also be doing one on one spiritual  counseling session through out the retreat. It is encouraged to use  these counseling sessions to share or move compassionately through any  deep emotions or issues that may arise as one immerses themselves in  themselves and the still environment. They also instruct on sustaining  spiritual practice in ordinary life.

The Tao and Wu Wei

We  encourage Wu Wei (Tao word meaning ‘doing nothing’) and are happy if  you want to sit and just be or wander the property or lay by the pool.  Each of us has our own healing needs, body rhythms as well as individual  psyches (or soul) and life challenges (although we are all connected)  and therefore we encourage each individual to move about the day as they  will.

Many people have busy lives or are transitioning through  intense emotional situations; being adsorbed in the stillness and  biorhythms of nature may be the healing required.

Sound or Crystal healing Yoga Barn

A  day trip to UBUD to attend the infamous Yoga barn is also included; a  crystal or sound healing may be available during this trip.The Yoga Barn  does not do booking so we will do our best to get there early.

Temple Visit

We will also be offering a trip to the temple and are hoping to organise a traditional ceremony which is rare for westerners.

Buddhist Monk Satsang

WE  are also currently trying our hardest to get a local Monk from the  Buddhist monastery to share our time and to give one or two evening or  daytime talks on ‘Loving Kindness and Compassion’ and ‘Maintaining  spiritual practice in everyday life”

Food

Vegan  and Vegetarian menus are the focus but meat is also avail. there will  be three meals per day in buffet style however if you have particular  needs we can possibly organise something with the chef. There are  kitchens provided within the houses so if you prefer to make your own  food that will be fine. You will have to source food from a market  beforehand or you can get a driver (extra cost) to take you into UBUD or  a local village. 3 daily meals per day are included in costs to make  things easy, so this would be an added personal cost.I usually like to  take some veges and rice so I can have some self cooked silent meals.

All activities, food and accommodation is included in the package.
