About this selection

The world's most iconic yoga destination — Ubud's healing energy, Canggu's modern shala scene, and Uluwatu's clifftop practice. Vipassana meditation in Bali — often conducted in silence for 7–10 days — takes on additional depth in this setting. The retreat context removes the obstacles that urban life creates for sustained insight practice. August is one of Bali's best months for retreat — Bali's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in August tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
