Experience the Transformation of Authentic Yoga and Live Foods Set in the Majestic Healing Power of Bali!

Your day will start with a gentle yet awakening Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga class, personalised for your needs, followed by delicious living food breakfast.

During the day there will be plenty of free time with an activity focused for each chakra where you will commune with the day’s element; Balinese earth massage, waterfall cleanse, fire ceremony, kirtan and dance.

We will have a healing food workshop where you will learn why and how plant-based food supports a healthy lifestyle, and you will receive simple recipes and preparation techniques that you can incorporate in your daily life.

Lunch will either be together at Sayuri Healing Food or you can enjoy the vast selection on offer in Ubud independently.

Then each day from 3:30 until 5pm we will come together for a yoga session specifically focused on working with the day’s chakra, including pranayama and meditation.

After sadhana we will enjoy dinner together at Sayuri Healing Food, or a group meal out  to sample some of Ubud’s finest eating places.

Come and Explore Your Inner-Self In Amazing Bali!

What are Chakras?
Chakras are energy centres in your body that provide you with incredible insight as you awaken. All yoga practices effect the chakras in some way, in this retreat we will amplify the work done in the morning Mysore class with specific yogic practices that are designed to activate each chakra in sequence.

What are Living Foods?
Living foods are an ultra clean way of eating. Absolutely delicious they will leave you feeling lighter in body, clearer in mind, and with more energy than ever!
