a Dance Between Conscious
Movement & Stillness
In the quiet north of Bali, far from the noise of the world, there’s a path that leads you gently back to yourself. It winds between ocean, jungle and mountain, arriving in the traditional Les Village where time stretches and nature hums with presence. Here, waves kiss the shore, birdsong fills the air, and the Yeh Mempeh Waterfall flows like a whisper from the skies.
Over six days, you are invited to soften, breathe and listen. To move and be moved. To gather in ceremony and stillness. To laugh, to feel, and to remember what it means to simply be. Essence is not about luxury, it is about raw presence. A homecoming to the sacred in the everyday, and to the quiet strength of your own ESSENCE.
Cibeli Nunes, Your Soul Companion and Sacred Space Holder
Immerse yourself in the embrace of Bali's sacred beauty, where the whispers of waterfalls, the grace of ancient rituals, and the depths of your soul essence converge to ignite a journey of profound transformation and pure rediscovery of your being.
Your Essence Retreat Offering
Nature & Sacred Ritual
Let the land hold you. From waterfall purifications and jungle walks to barefoot beach moments and Balinese offerings, nature becomes both sanctuary and ceremony. Cacao ritual, temple blessing, and sunrise gazing invite you into deeper reverence.
Nourish & Rejuvenate
Be nourished from the inside out. Plant-based meals prepared with love, balinese massage, the pure air and waters of Bali, blissful mornings, and space to rest. This retreat isn’t just about transformation, it’s about integrating life, slowly, deeply, gently.
Embodied Liberation
Move what longs to move, feel what longs to be felt. Through sacred movement, nonsexual Tantra Embodiment, and emotional release practices, you’ll ground into your body and awaken your senses into deep freedom and aliveness.
Spirit & Stillness
Drop beneath the noise. Reiki meditations, sunrise silence, and transcendent moments invite spiritual clarity and the quiet reconnection with your essence. An opportunity to honour your physical body as a sacred vessel of presence.
Joy, Play & Expression
From laughter to conscious movement, from stillness to sensory exploration, joy becomes a sacred practice. Here, creativity, curiosity, and mindful practices invite you to express freely, feel deeply, and rediscover the beauty of being unapologetically you.
Community & Heart Expansion
Gather in soul circles, breathe, and remember what it feels like to be seen - by yourself. Share stories, spontaneous laughter, and quiet tears. This is a space for realness, vulnerability, and the soft power of belonging. You were never meant to walk this path alone.
Join us at the Essence Retreat and embark on a journey that will transform the way you see, feel, and experience life.
