DATES & LOCATION

RECONNECT WITH YOUR dIVINE FEMININE

OVERVIEW

Across seven days, during a Full Moon - in the jungles of North Bali, you will be guided through a deeply curated initiation of embodiment, ritual, reflection, and integration. Each experience is designed to support you on your personal journey of healing, with real inner change that continues long after you leave the sacred jungles of Mama Bali.

Surrounded by the symphony of the jungle, held by mountains, and witnessed in sisterhood, you will remember what freedom in the body feels like.
Grounded. Radiant. Alive.

This retreat is an invitation to soften, to shed old layers, and to emerge renewed, realigned, and deeply connected to yourself..

(In Mama Bali)

WHO IS THIS RETREAT FOR?

This retreat is for the woman who feels the call for more, who knows something within her is ready to unfold.

She's been carrying a lot—breakup, burnout, motherhood, work pressure, or simply the feeling of losing herself.

She feels tired, disconnected, or numb, and knows she needs space to slow down and breathe.She's ready to rest, reset, and reconnect with her body and inner world.

THE PAUSE

She's in a season of change, figuring out what comes next while juggling life, work, or family.

She's curious about herself and open to growth, but doesn't need all the answers yet.
She wants space to reflect, feel, and explore what's true for her now—without pressure to be anyone other than who she is.

THE IN-BETWEEN

She's ready to feel more like herself again, or step into a new version entirely. More energized, clear, and connected to what she wants.

She's seeking experiences that support real change—not escape. She wants to leave feeling grounded, supported, and recharged, with clarity and direction for her next chapter.
