Making change takes action and action is required to start the ball rolling and to follow through with it. Any type of change that is somewhere in the future is simply a passing thought until there is action. Take charge, change happens now. At Bali Silent Retreat we can assist with your process of change.

Yoga, Yoga, Yoga, what it means, where and when. I keep learning how different words inspire different understandings between individuals and cultures. For example: Yoga in the west implies the ‘asana’ aspect of the tradition; various physical positions and postures of stretching and body movement. Yoga in Bali (to the Balinese) I’ve observed, means much […]

At Bali Silent Retreat we care very much about these issues of health, wholeness, environment, aesthetics (ugly plastic bottles), and also, is it really necessary? –Come on!!
