Re:Birth - Once in a Blue Moon, Bali

A grounded renewal for the mind, body, and purpose.

Discover Your Path to Renewal

There are moments in life when we pause long enough to ask: 
Am I living with clarity, or by habit?
The Once in a Blue Moon retreat is an opportunity to reset from within  a time to step back from daily patterns and rediscover a sense of quiet purpose.
Through catharsis, meditation, yoga, and guided reflection, we reconnect to what truly matters and create space for new intention to emerge.
This is not about escaping life,  it’s about seeing it more clearly.

Held at The Yogi’s Garden in Bali, surrounded by nature and silence, this 5-day immersive experience invites you to rest deeply, release emotional residue, and realign with what gives meaning to your days.
“Once in a Blue Moon” isn’t about a celestial event  it’s about those rare moments when your inner world aligns with your outer life. 

When clarity replaces confusion, rest becomes natural, and life feels renewed.

Join us in Bali for five grounded, transformative days to rediscover that alignment within yourself.
