Bali is consistently voted in the top best islands in the world. It is the dream destination for many, and the epitome of the tropical island idyll. Bali has it all, the hustle and bustle of the city streets combined with an array of natural and spiritual beauty.
Our beautifully appointed retreat villa is located in the heart of vibrant Canggu, with convenient access to all that this bustling beach town has to offer. The villa is completely hidden away, our own private sanctuary in the middle of it all. Inside the towering privacy walls, you will discover your own paradise oasis for the week, with its 18m pool, separate BBQ area, TV room, library, massage spa & yoga studio, it offers many wonderful spaces, nestled in every area of the estate, where you can sit, relax or mingle as the mood takes you.
Your day will start with either a movement practice or surf lesson to get you glowing from the inside out followed by a delicious breakfast for the queens you are. After breakfast, you’ll have free time to adventure out, explore, indulge in spa treatments, lounge by the pool, or do whatever your heart desires. Each afternoon we will gather for your Brain-Mind-Body workshops with Wellness Coaching, Meditation, and Restorative Yoga.
Topics to be covered in your Brain-Mind-Body journey towards wellness and empowerment include:
• Understanding how women’s brain and hormonal systems uniquely impact your life experiences and function (i.e, such as memory/cognition, behavior, and mood). This information will be presented in an accessible way to empower your future, long after the retreat.
• Learning about how stress and fear may be experienced by women specific to their brain and unique hormonal systems. Know how to use this understanding to move forward with your own hopes, dreams, and passions.
• Understanding the role of sleep and social interactions in women’s brain-mind-body wellness and how to make positive changes in these areas to enhance well-being.
• Learning why and how food, as well as exercise, can profoundly impact the women’s brain and hormonal systems.
These workshops are uniquely designed to empower women in developing their own personalized optimal brain health wellness plan with the support of Dr. Hayden & Wellness & Lifestyle Coach Lulu Agan.
Book your bliss today & get ready for an amazing week-long retreat with two dynamic women that will educate and empower you to lead your best life!
