I’d wanted to start doing yoga for a long time, but between work, traveling, and simply never finding enough time, I kept putting it off. So I decided that a retreat would be a good way to finally give it a proper try, get into a routine, and understand yoga a little better beyond just taking an occasional class. I was pretty much a beginner, but that wasn’t a problem at all. The teachers were very attentive, helped me with the poses, and explained everything whenever I struggled with something. After a few days, I already felt much more confident, and now I really want to continue practicing at home. The only thing I found a little difficult to get used to was the food. I understand that it’s specially designed to fit the program and all the different practices, but sometimes I really wanted to eat more. And there were moments when I was honestly dreaming about cake, chips, or basically anything unhealthy. So that was a bit of a challenge for me. But overall, I really enjoyed the retreat, and most importantly, I finally started doing yoga and realized that I want to keep going.
Bali Retreat “Journey Within”
For eight full days, you can leave behind schedules, restaurant choices, trip planning, and the constant question of what to do next. Replenish “Journey Within” is a complete wellness program where every day is thoughtfully planned for you—from morning Kundalini Tantra Yoga and balanced meals to spa treatments, meditation, purification practices, and personal consultations. There is no need to organize anything yourself: simply arrive and let the program guide you through each stage of the retreat.
Throughout the eight days, different practices complement one another, focusing on both physical well-being and inner balance. You will take part in a purification ritual at a holy water temple, practice Jala Neti, discover traditional Balinese Boreh, enjoy spa treatments, walk through the village at sunrise, meditate, stretch, spend time at the ashram, and attend a personal consultation. Nutrition is also an important part of the program: all main meals are included, with healthy menus designed to complement the retreat. One of the days includes a recommendation for therapeutic fasting, with a light alternative available for those who prefer not to fast.
These eight days create a space dedicated entirely to rest, self-care, and renewal. There are no logistics to coordinate and no need to fill your days with plans. Your time is already thoughtfully balanced between practices, body treatments, nourishing meals, and rest, allowing you to simply follow the program and focus on yourself.

About the retreat practices:
Kundalini Tantra Yoga
This practice blends elements of tantra, yoga and pranayama — breathing techniques that work with the body, the breath and inner energy. Particular attention is given to the spine, the energy centres and bringing your overall state into balance.
Blessing in Kundalini Tantra Yoga
A special spiritual practice led by Master Ketut Arsana. Participants move in a shared rhythm while working with breath and energy, as the master delivers a blessing through Shiva Dwara, the crown chakra. According to the tradition of this practice, it helps awaken Kundalini energy, release energy blocks and harmonise the flow of Prana.
Jala Neti practice
One of yoga's traditional cleansing techniques — rinsing the nasal passages and sinuses with warm salted water using a special neti pot. During the retreat you'll learn the correct technique, which you can then continue to practise on your own.
Boreh scrub making workshop
You'll discover this traditional Balinese body care ritual and make your own scrub from organic spices and roots. Guests gather the necessary ingredients in the hotel garden together with the team, then learn how to prepare them and use them to create Boreh.
Travelers reviews
I really love this kind of holiday and have already been on several retreats in India and Sri Lanka. For me, it’s the best way to truly recharge and focus completely on myself. This was my first time trying a retreat in Bali, and I was very happy with the experience. I especially enjoyed the morning yoga and meditation sessions, the consultation with a Balinese healer, and the Melukat purification ritual. There were also plenty of spa treatments, and they were well spread throughout the program, so by the end of the retreat I genuinely felt rested both physically and emotionally. The location is perfect for this kind of experience. Ubud, lots of greenery, a peaceful atmosphere, and good food. In terms of organization, this retreat was every bit as good as the ones I’ve done before. I came home feeling rested and recharged, which is exactly what I came for.
