BALI BALANCEa 9-day self-discovery journeyJanuary 28- Feb. 5, 2010 |
|
Inhale the wonders of Bali. Our annual retreat weaves creativity, reflection, tours, ceremonies, yoga, Spa treatments and exquisite shopping together to deliver an unforgettable life-enhancing experience. This is Aziza's most profound personal growth retreat event! Time together begins in the artisan mecca of Ubud in the centre of Bali, surrounded by lush rice fields and authentic Balinese culture. The lively bustle of the festive town of Ubud was made famous by author Elizabeth Gilbert in her book 'Eat, Pray, Love'. Our hotel is situated on a tranquil side street flanked by colourful shops, rice paddies, restaurants and school. As you linger here you find that the sights, sounds, beauty and daily Hindu rituals help you relax, unwind and open to the gifts Bali generously gives. As you explore this breathtaking island jewel she returns the favour by inspiring you to both remember and reclaim the best of who you are. Days are a balance of creativity, reflection and gentle walks through the rice fields, along peaceful paths leading to nearby Sacred sites and hidden temples. Enjoy plenty of private time for journal writing, dips in the pool, spa and exploration of Ubud's cultural feast. On the fourth day of our Bali retreat, we prepare to head northeast, touring enroute to a local Hindu High Priest to recieve a cleansing blessing. We continue through the mountains to the coast- moving from green interior to the gentle blue shores of the Bali Sea. At the sprawling, utterly relaxing beach resort Gaia-Oasis in North Bali the pool, bungalows and dining hall overlook the ever-changing waterscape. Distant Hindu temple chants serenade as palm trees dance above the lapping surf. We'll linger here for five gorgeous nights. Gaia's Spa offers rejuvenating massage, facial, pedicure, body exfoliation and other pampering treatments. You also have opportunity to join daily yoga classes, hike to nearby waterfalls, dolphin watch, learn to make offering baskets and create your own itinerary for the 7th retreat day. Retreat facilitator and Gestalt therapist, Laila Ghattas, creates an itinerary that includes the wonderful healing opportunities to be found through creative self-expression, journal writing and reflective exercises. Personal growth flows as the retreat and your healing journey unfold. Please Click here for more on Aziza's therapeutic approach. This Bali healing journey concludes with reflections on the riches these 9 days of self-discovery have brought you. You leave this gentle paradise refreshed, reawakened and reconnected.
