Yoga Retreat in Bali!
May 24 - 31, 2025
Join us for an unforgettable yoga retreat in the enchanting island paradise of Bali, from May 24th to May 31st, 2025.
Bali is more than just a destination; it's a sanctuary for the soul. With its lush landscapes, serene beaches, and rich cultural heritage, Bali offers the perfect setting for a yoga retreat and cultural experience.
Led me and Vivian Duelli, founder/owner of DRIFT, our retreat is designed to nourish your body, expand your mind, and reconnect you with your soul. Through a blend of yoga sessions, meditation practices, and cultural excursions, you'll embark on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
Highlights of our retreat include:
Yoga, Meditation, Workshop Sessions: During our retreat in Bali, we'll embark on a transformative journey through yoga sessions that promise to deepen our connection with ourselves. Each session will be meticulously crafted to harmonize body, mind, and spirit, guiding us towards inner peace and self-discovery.
Mornings will greet us with revitalizing yoga sessions, where we'll stretch, strengthen, and align our bodies, awakening our senses to the beauty of the day ahead. Led by Nancy or Vivian, these sessions will not only enhance our physical well-being but also cultivate mindfulness and presence, anchoring us in the present moment.
In the afternoons, we'll delve into the serene practice with meditation, immersing ourselves in the stillness within. Through guided meditations, we'll learn to quiet the chatter of the mind, allowing us to access deeper layers of awareness and insight. These moments of stillness will serve as gateways to self-exploration, enabling us to uncover our true essence and connect with our inner wisdom.
Our workshops will explore the philosophy behind the practices to learning practical techniques for cultivating inner peace. These workshops will empower us to integrate mindfulness into our daily lives and nurture a sense of well-being.
Visit to Sacred Temples: Bali's spiritual heritage with visits to two of the island's most revered temples. Feel the sacred energy as you explore these ancient sites and connect with the island's profound spirituality.
Gunung Kiwi / Valley of Kings: Bali’s largest ancient temple complex comprising a collection of ancient 'Candi' or shrine reliefs carved directly into the face of a rock cliff. One of the most stunningly unique archeological sites besides being an important sacred place for the Balinese.
Tirta Empul temple: One of the most famous holy spring water temples in Bali. This complex is a place of worship for the god Indra. The god Indra is the manifestation of the god Wisnu, the god of water. With three large pool sections in this temple each with several water taps. This pool is a place where you perform a ritual of self-cleansing by placing your body and head under the drainage water.
Sunrise Hike and Hot Springs: Awaken your senses with a breathtaking sunrise hike up Mount Batur, followed by a soothing dip in natural hot springs. Surrender to the healing waters and let go of stress as you bask in the beauty of Bali's natural wonders.
We start very early to hike up with our guide to witness a beautiful sunrise and enjoy a packed breakfast at the top, followed by a dip in natural hot springs.
Bike Through the Countryside: Embark on a scenic bike tour through Bali's picturesque countryside, where lush rice fields and traditional villages await. Stop for a delicious lunch at a local farm, where you'll savor the flavors of authentic Balinese cuisine and connect with the island's rich agricultural heritage.
Beach Day: Indulge in a day of relaxation and rejuvenation on Bali's pristine beach. Feel the soft sand beneath your feet as you soak up the sun, practice beach yoga, and immerse yourself in the calming rhythm of the ocean waves.
Fire Ceremony: Conclude our retreat with a powerful fire ceremony, where we'll release what no longer serves us and set intentions for the journey ahead. Experience the transformative power of fire as you let go of old patterns and welcome new beginnings.
Cultural Dinner with a traditional Balinese dance performance, learn about the Balinese way of life, the meaning of offerings, how to create offerings, and a group blessing followed by a traditional Balinese dinner. Through all of these, you’ll experience in the sights, sounds, and flavors of Bali.
In addition to our curated excursions, our retreat also offers opportunities to experience Bali's vibrant culture and savor its exquisite cuisine on the days where you can explore on your own and venture out to town.
