"We made memories that we’ll keep for a lifetime in this extraordinary part of the world.”
Bali, Indonesia
The best part about this course is that once you set foot on the grounds, you don’t have to do anything but enjoy the multitude of services provided and the deep inner (and outer) silence.
When you take a step out in the morning and feel the gentle ocean breeze flow through your hair as you enjoy your morning Yoga Asanas, you'll realize that there couldn't be a more charming inner Self experience.
The word "yoga" comes from the Sanskrit root "yuj" — meaning to unify — and honestly, that's exactly what this SELF course feels like. More and more people are discovering that stepping away from the everyday and immersing themselves in a retreat is one of the most beautiful ways to reconnect — with nature, with themselves, and with the people around them.
Whether you've been meditating for years or you're just beginning to explore what Transcendental Meditation has to offer, this retreat meets you exactly where you are.
Experience
Life has a way of filling up fast — and before you know it, the noise and busyness can start to weigh on you. That's exactly what the Self Course is designed to ease. Each day flows at a gentle, unhurried pace, weaving together morning practice of meditation, nourishing organic meals, inspiring classes, and plenty of time to laugh, connect, and simply be with the people around you.
But perhaps the best part? From the moment you arrive, you can let it all go. Everything is taken care of — all you need to do is show up and allow yourself to receive. It's a rare and wonderful thing to be held in that kind of space, where the outside world fades away and a deep, restful silence — both within and around you — finally has room to emerge.
Learn
Listen to an enriching talk, indulge in a relaxing swim, enjoy some downtime in your beautiful accommodations, share travel reminiscences with newly found friends: the options are numerous.
Imagine spending your days in a breathtaking natural setting, with the space and stillness to actually focus on you — your breath, your body, your sense of peace.
And the benefits go beyond the feeling. Research has shown that Transcendental Meditation is helpful in reducing stress, and the effects stress has on the physiology. When you're fully immersed in a structured daily practice, the benefits really start to become clear. Pair that with stunning surroundings and a group of like-minded course participants, and you've got something truly special.
Enjoy
Joining meditators (and those who will begin), from every corner of the globe to create a wave of peace and harmony is an extraordinary experience. This gathering will include a diverse group of individuals of all ages and backgrounds with the common desire to create a better world through their own growth and development. Sharing Knowledge, offering programs, and sharing information that will inspire and educate you in technologies of consciousness to make life more full and live your greater potential.
Through daily group practice of Transcendental Meditation and the TM-Sidhi program during these weeks, you will:
• Enhance your personal growth towards higher states of consciousness.
• Create greater coherence and unity in world consciousness, which scientific research has demonstrated produces more positive global trends and greater cooperation among world leaders to solve the many problems that our world faces today.
If you need one more reason to spend the week in paradise, this would be it.
