Blissful Bali Writing Retreat

July 11 – 17, 2024

With Kerstin Pilz PhD and Edwina Shaw

Unleash your wild mind and heart

& write your life back into balance

 

Join us at our Blissful Bali Writing Retreat and set your stories free! 

Get your stories out of your head and onto the page and feel the joy of creating beauty of your own in the peace and tranquility of Bali.

Whether you have an established writing practice or have always wanted to write but never had the time, this retreat is for anybody in need of some quality nurturing of their creative spirit.

  • Every day begins with gentle yoga, followed by breakfast and an inspiring writing workshop to get those creative juices flowing.
  • The afternoons are free for your own adventures and explorations, naps, or 1:1 sessions with Kerstin & Edwina, a complimentary massage and tarot reading, and a guided writing group for those who like to write in company.
  • At the end of the day, we come together again for some gentle yoga breathing exercises to help clear your mind and revitalise your energy.
  • Every evening we share incredible dinners and relax with conversation and readings.

 

All activities are optional.

This is your retreat. Our aim is to nurture your body, mind, and creative spirit so you leave feeling renewed, both as a writer and as a human being, with a whole lot of new writing, bright, exciting ideas and refreshed energy to take home with you.

The retreat is led by two published authors, experienced writing and yoga teachers.
