Retreat Highlights

  • Inner Growth & Self-Discovery - Guided experiences designed to support reflection, awareness, emotional openness, and inner alignment through conscious practices, ceremonies, and meditation.
  • Sacred Spaces & Ritual Traditions: - Visits to Bali’s sacred temples and natural sanctuaries, where ancient traditions and spiritual presence continue through ritual, prayer, and devotion. Peaceful moments in water, nature, and stillness offer space for grounding, clarity, and renewal.
  • Cultural Immersion - Connection with local artists, traditions, and daily life. Exploration of markets, crafts, music, and rituals that reflect Bali’s living spiritual culture. Opportunities for rest, relaxation, and body renewal through traditional wellness practices.
  • A Genuine Local Perspective - With decades of lived experience on the island, we offer an authentic, grounded, and intimate experience of Bali — beyond the mainstream paths — for those seeking depth, meaning, and true connection.
  • Yoga, Meditation & Inner Practices - You will experience meditation sessions to support balance, presence, and inner clarity. Breathwork, sound practices, and awareness exercises are accessible to all levels and led by experienced local practitioners.
  • A Journey of Inner Awareness & Connection - For thousands of years, plant traditions have been part of humanity’s spiritual and cultural story — used as sacred tools for inner exploration, reflection, and connection with the deeper layers of consciousness. Across cultures, these traditions have been approached with reverence, respect, and ceremony, not as substances, but as teachers of awareness, presence, and inner wisdom.
  • These experiences invite new ways of seeing, feeling, and understanding yourself and the world around you. They can gently shift perspective, soften rigid patterns of thinking, and open space for insight, clarity, and inner growth. Rather than forcing change, they create conditions where transformation can arise naturally — through awareness, presence, and self-connection.

About this Retreat

Your Guides

Details of this retreat

We invite you into a deeply empowering journey of self-discovery, inner growth, and conscious transformation — a space to reconnect with yourself, restore inner harmony, and step into a more aligned and meaningful way of living. This experience is designed to support emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual balance through gentle inner exploration, awareness practices, and conscious integration. It is a journey of remembering who you are beneath old stories, patterns, and limitations — creating space for clarity, resilience, presence, and inner peace to naturally emerge.

Step into the heart of Bali — a land where spirituality, culture, and devotion are woven into everyday life. This journey is more than travel; it is an immersion into the living soul of the island — a space where land, people, ritual, and spirit exist in harmony.

Here, life flows with gratitude, ceremony, art, music, and reverence for the sacred. The Balinese way of life reflects a deep relationship with the unseen, the natural world, and the rhythms of existence. This retreat is created for those seeking a deeper connection — far beyond the surface of tourism — and into the authentic spiritual essence of Bali.

Be the Change You Wish to See:
This journey is not just a retreat — it is an invitation into conscious living, inner responsibility, and personal evolution.
As you explore your inner world, you naturally contribute to a more conscious outer world. As you cultivate presence, you bring more peace. As you choose awareness, you create transformation.
Come with an open heart. A curious mind. And a willingness to meet yourself more deeply.
Together, we explore presence, connection, awareness, and inner light — not as something to reach for, but as something to remember.

WHAT THIS JOURNEY CAN SUPPORT

Deeper self-connection
You begin to experience a more intimate relationship with yourself — your emotions, your inner world, your body, and your inner truth. This work supports a deeper sense of presence within your own being, helping you feel more at home in yourself.

Personal healing from within
Healing is not something given by a teacher, guide, or external authority. It arises from your own inner intelligence and higher self. This journey supports your natural capacity for self-healing by creating the conditions for awareness, safety, and inner listening. The process is guided, but the healing comes from within you.

Spiritual and mystical awareness
For some, this inner work may open the door to spiritual or mystical experiences — moments of deep presence, unity, transcendence, or connection with something greater than the personal self. These experiences are not forced or sought after, but may arise naturally as part of inner openness and expanded awareness.

Awareness and clarity
Old patterns, stories, and conditioned beliefs begin to loosen, making space for new perspectives, understanding, and insight. You start to see yourself and your life with greater honesty and clarity.

Emotional balance
You learn to meet your inner world with more gentleness, patience, and compassion. Emotions become something you can hold, understand, and integrate, rather than avoid or suppress.

Creativity and inspiration
Your inner world opens, allowing fresh ideas, new visions, and renewed motivation to arise naturally. Creativity becomes a form of expression, not pressure.

Inner strength and self-trust
You reconnect with your own inner guidance, resilience, and natural wisdom. Trust begins to shift from external sources toward your own inner knowing and intuition.

Connection with others
Empathy, understanding, and presence deepen, supporting more conscious, honest, and loving relationships. As self-connection grows, connection with others becomes more authentic and grounded.

Purpose and direction
Clarity grows around what truly matters to you, what feels meaningful, and how you want to live. Direction arises from alignment rather than obligation.

Freedom from limiting patterns
Old habits, emotional responses, and unconscious patterns begin to soften, creating space for healthier, more conscious ways of being. Change happens gently, through awareness rather than force.

Transformative experience
My experience was undeniably mystical. The concept of 'I' or my ego dissolved, and I transcended into pure light energy, akin to a divine source. I learned that this physical body holds little significance and Time is a non-existent construct in the Universe. I tapped into my boundless potential as both a luminous and human being. It stands as the most profoundly transformative experience of my life. I am immensely grateful to the team.

Life-changing journey
The ceremony was a powerful and sacred experience. Under the influence of plant medicine, I ventured deep into the recesses of my mind, confronting my fears, unraveling past traumas, and embracing the beauty of my existence. It was as if the Universe had unveiled its secrets to me, and I felt an overwhelming sense of interconnectedness with all living beings. It was a truly transformational journey!

Gratitude
I used to harbor significant apprehension about psilocybin therapy. Looking back, I find it absurd that I waited so long. It's, without a doubt, one of the most valuable gifts you can bestow upon yourself. Through this journey, I've unearthed profound insights, discovered solutions, and evolved into the finest version of myself. I've partaken in four sessions with the team, which has undeniably transformed my life. I am overflowing with gratitude. - Isabella

Right words at the right moments
He choses his words wisely and guided my attention back to loving myself, loving what is.

Healing could happen when my silence and his words met in the safe space they created.

I trust him guiding me and that trust had to be earned. I don't give it to many people

Thank you🙏

Peace and serenity
Whenever I am around her I feel like everything is alright.
Her aura and presence is calming me.

She feels me and what I need during my trip. This can't be learned in some days or in a short course

6th sense and empathy with the deep wish for others to be heathy and well is the result of a life lived well.

Iili: you are my favorite cat in the whole world.:))
