The Art of Self-Empowerment with Friederike Kleinert

The Art of Self-Empowerment: Yoga, Breath, Meditation & Sound

Get away from the everyday hustle to Bali, the island of gods. During this retreat you will embark on a journey of slowing down, creating self-awareness and cultivating presence. Our time together is fully dedicated to rediscover the power that lies deep within each one of us – the power to transform the way we live.

You will move with intention, enjoy nourishing vegan food and share laughter and tears with other like-minded women from across the world. Together we will sit in powerful meditation and breathwork sessions, open our hearts through journaling and experience deep relaxation through Yoga Nidra and Sound Baths.

Vision

In a world that constantly tries to convince you that you are not whole and lack something external, the time has come to take your power back and connect back with yourself. We all hold the power to transform our life according to our most authentic self – it just seem that we have forgotten how to access and utilize this ever present force. The retreat embraces the vision to bring people closer together and create spaces where you can show up authentically, without the fear of being judged. During our guided classes, interactive workshops and sharing circles, we will explore presence, authenticity and embodiment, following this vision.

The Art of Self-Empowerment follows a holistic approach that includes all aspects of human being: body, mind & soul. We will tap into the power of movement, breath, meditation, sound and self-awareness practices – all with the intention to connect with ourselves and become fully present. We will create space for joy, inspiration and truth by building mind-body connection and learning mindfulness practices.

After this retreat you will feel emotionally balanced, grounded, inspired to live your desires and have made new beautiful friendships with women from across the world.

Yoga & Mindfulness

Through mindfulness and embodiment practices you will learn tools and rituals that bring more joy and sacredness into your daily life. The daily morning yoga classes are grounded in more slow-paced and mindful movements. Thereby a mixture of hatha and vinyasa yoga that is not about moving your body in complicated ways will be teached. You will rather move intentionally, guided by the breath and connected with your body.

Besides our movement classes, we will also practice various breathwork techniques and sit in different types of meditation daily. Additionally, you will experience the healing power of sound and mindful listening. Through intuitive or guided journaling you will tap into the voice of your heart.

You will be introduced to a variety of intentionally selected techniques and practices that cultivate presence, relaxation and self-awareness. To provide you with a range of experiences, different workshops on the topics: mindfulness and meditation, the power of breath, journaling from the heart or how to manage your energy will be held.

No experience whether in yoga, breathwork or meditation is required. Just come open-hearted and open-minded. You are invited to let go of any expectations or pressure you might normally put on yourself and embrace playfulness as well as curiosity about your inner landscape.

Nourishment

Imagine to have the choice from blueberry smoothie bowls and sweet potato waffles to vegetable pad thai with organic tempeh and tropical salad with homemade bread. All melas are cooked free of refined sugar and any preservatives.

We will enjoy two vegan buffets daily (brunch + dinner) and snacks in from of protein bars, energy ball etc. and fresh fruits are provided in-between.

All meals are plant-based, wholesome and organic and will be provided by Motion Fitness Food – local catering company. Including a variety of different dishes, all meals are served buffet style. All ingredients are carefully selected to ensure balanced vegan meals. Please note that this retreat doesn’t follow a strict and complex detox diet program.

How a day COULD look like on retreat

Please note that our time together is not another week of strict meetings and deadlines. Instead we welcome flow and ease in our life. To let go of any expectations and allow yourself to be fully present, no schedule in detail will be shared before the retreat. There will be a well thought balance of teachings, guided sessions, sharings and interactive workshops as well as enough free time for yourself.

To give you a glimpse of insight: we start every day with a breathwork and yoga session, followed by a plant-based brunch. The afternoon will consist of a mix between interactive workshops and free time to rest, read or explore. We meet again before dinner for guided meditation, a relaxing sound bath or a sharing circle. Together we share a vegan buffet style dinner in the evening.
