Have you ever experienced waking up feeling wholly demotivated? Feeling lost, drained and uninterested in your monotonous daily routine?

The overwhelming pressure from work life, personal life and academic life has sucked the life out of many of us to burn out. Consequently, the anxieties and worries that the CoVid-19 has brought us are calling us to shift our lenses to seek mental health restoration. It is time to restructure our focus and reconnect within ourselves to unlock mind, body, spiritual harmony and balance. Prepare yourselves as we embark on a new renewal, growth and healing.

Let’s take a step forward and wander into these three must-visit wellness destinations in the tropical archipelago of Indonesia!

Suppose you want to get away from the sight of the city’s busy streets. Then, let your eyes feast on the calming surrounding of this beautifully lush paradise in a jungle-like setting. Treat your lungs in this oxygen-rich retreat site located in the town of Penestanen in Ubud. Start your day here with an unforgettable breakfast served on a floating tray in their infinity pool with a beautiful setting of the greenery. The treatments offered encompasses chakra balancing (channeling seven main energy centers), psychotherapy, counselling, coaching, naturopathy, organ-specific cleansing, energy healing, meditation, and more. This wellness retreat also gives off an authentic traditional Balinese surrounding which completes the experience. If you are also looking for an authentic Balinese therapy, head to their spa and enjoy their massages, scrubs “boreh” and herbal healing baths in the retreat’s natural river rock pool.

Health will always be our most significant wealth, according to a maxim. Even a short single week of escape from the modern daily living pattern can tremendously reshape us into the better version of ourselves physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually and rediscover our creativity and passion, to find our inspiration and interest, to rebuild our motivation and recharge our batteries.

To sum it all up, these wellness destinations are incredible to those who seek solace in week-long retreats, and those who are finding “home away from home”.
