Indonesia · 5 days · From EUR 4390 (indicative)
The retreat runs out of a private villa estate in the forest above Ubud. Each couple gets their own space: a 53 m2 Jungle Suite or Pool Terrace, or a 150 m2 one-bedroom pool villa with rice-field views. All have air conditioning, wifi, a terrace, and a stone or marble bathroom with double vanities, a rain shower and a deep soaking tub. The price is per room for double occupancy.
A typical day begins with traditional herbal elixirs and Jamu during a fasting window, then a dawn session of somatic movement, breathwork and meditation. Brunch is served at midday, once the morning session is done. Afternoons hold the private neuro-acoustic cellular resonance treatment, a full-body massage, or nothing at all. Some late afternoons have a private cultural class in traditional instrumentation or sacred arts. Dinner is a set celebration meal, followed by the twilight sound session led by a handpan player.
Three people run the programme. Ken designs the schedule and the sensory side of the week and handles the logistics. Shiva leads the sound work, playing handpan live and calibrating tempo and vibration for the session. Cipta Nugraha teaches the yoga and somatic movement, mixing alignment-based traditional yoga with somatic awareness. Sessions are pitched at beginners; no prior yoga, breathwork or meditation experience is needed.
What separates this from other Ubud wellness weeks is the privacy and the format. It is one couple per programme, so there is no shared shala and no fixed group timetable. The work is passive rather than strenuous: sound, warmth, massage and breath rather than long physical practice. The estate is alcohol-free for the duration.
The setting is the forest and rice-field country around Ubud, roughly 1.5 to 2 hours by road from Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar. Days are warm, around 26°C to 31°C, with cooler mornings and evenings up in the canopy. The dry season runs April to October; the wet season brings short afternoon showers and greener surroundings.
