How to plan a Meditation Retreat in Ubud

If you’re looking a vacation that allows you to not only relax your body but also nurture your mind and mental wellness, doing a meditation retreat in Ubud, Bali can be the perfect getaway “reset” for you.

Whether you’re new to meditation or not, planning a retreat gives you a unique experience much different to the average vacation. That’s because to fully give yourself a break, you have to relax your mind as well.

In order to get the most out of a meditation retreat, it’s important to think about the details of how you want to do one. There are several factors that set retreats apart from one another. Here are some things to consider when planning and preparing for a meditation retreat:

CONSIDER THE TYPE OF RETREAT YOU WANT

Think about the weather, location, length, and even type of meditation you’re interested in doing. This can help you find a retreat that fits your specific preferences so you get the most out of it.

Some questions to ask yourself include:

• Do I want to be able to come as go as I please, or do I want a more remote location experience?
• How long do I want the retreat to last?
• What’s the most important benefit for me to get out of this retreat?
• Do I want a retreat that includes meditation all throughout the day, or at only certain times?

Our meditation retreat in Ubud is loved by many people for it’s great location in beautiful Bali, the three-day length, and the simple, approachable style of meditation offered.

FIND A RETREAT LOCATION AND STYLE

There are different retreats to choose from in Bali, and it helps to do some research ahead of time so you can find the one best fitting for you.

At Blue Karma in Ubud, we’re proud to offer you several retreats right from our beautiful luxury resort, and that includes our deluxe meditation retreat. These meditation retreats are led by Maireya, who has been practicing meditation for 20 years and has experience from some of the great Indian Masters on the subject.

Maireya’s workshops and retreats are truly one-of-a-kind, and loved by many for their simplicity. You’ll be lead through different Indian Master-inspired meditations that include both passive meditation styles as well as those that include dance, movement, and even music and laughter!

It’s also helpful to think about where you want to sleep during your retreat. Are you more interested in roughing it, such as camping out, or would you like a more pampering location?

For example, our retreat includes:

• three nights’ stay in our Superior Garden Suite
• free WiFi throughout our hotel
• a complimentary rice paddies walk (complete with a fresh coconut drink)
• and other extra perks

We make sure you’re feeling relaxed and taken care of through the entire stay.
