​Gentle Retreats

​With intention and purpose, travel can be a source of healing. Gentle Retreats offer experiences which encourage us to slow down our footsteps, open our hearts and engage meaningfully. Through forest bathing, we cultivate presence and a deeper relationship with nature, self and others.

​This is a regenerative travel experience. We avoid mass tourism and commercial activities to prevent further impact on areas with heavy footfall, to benefit local communities directly, and to ensure a genuine and pleasant experience.

​Retreat Overview

​Bali is known as the Island of Gods, where humans live harmoniously as one with nature and the Divine. The land is incredibly alive, offering a richness not just in the forests but in its people - they tend to the land, give generously and offer warm hospitality that makes one feel like family.

​This 4D3N trip brings us to a lesser-known village in the North of Bali called Pelaga, a charming forest valley where the waters of the sacred Lake Beratan flow. We will live and play in the forest valley and re-member ourselves as nature. With sunshine during the day and chilly air at night, we will experience nature in the most soothing way.

​Inner Nature Exploration

​'Valley of Life' - the valley is often experienced as a low point of darkness, but it is also the turning point that holds the most life and potential. As we live gently in the valley, we take time to nourish and heal, while sensing into the possibilities and paths ahead. You are safe to rest before embarking on the next climb.

​The experience will include guided journalling and reflection circles, both in silence and in words, held gently in the embrace of nature.

This journey is personal and optional; you decide which layer you'd like to meet yourself at. You are safe with us.
