Tips for Making the Most of Your Bali Retreat
Take a few days before your retreat to unwind, set personal intentions, and open yourself to new experiences, this helps you get the most out of your yoga, meditation, and reflection practices.
Consider arriving a day or two early to settle in, recover from your flight, and give yourself time to adjust to the island’s pace before the retreat begins.
Bali has a tropical climate, and visiting during the dry season (Mid May–Beginning of November) makes outdoor yoga, beach time, and nature excursions more enjoyable.
Pack light and bring essentials: Most items are easy to get in Bali, and we provide a goody bag with all your yoga essentials. Bring comfortable yoga clothes, sunscreen, and any personal items you prefer (like female hygiene products, which can be more expensive locally). Everything can be washed locally, so travel light, everything else is affordable and easy to buy on the island.

Een intense ervaring die ik voor altijd meedraag in mijn hart: de schoonheid van het gevarieerd landschap, de culturele momenten en tradities, het Balinees eten, de yogasessies, en de gemoedelijke gesprekken in de groep. Rustgevend, leerrijk, smakelijk, connecterend en diepgaand. Met dank aan Liza die deze reis begeleidt en een omgeving schept waarin iedereen zichzelf kan zijn.Posted on Google Viviane MelisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ik heb de Bali Zen reis gedaan en Liza heeft deze reis helemaal tip top verzorgd. Ze hield rekening met de noden van de groep en paste aan waar nodig. Verder kon je altijd terecht bij haar voor alles. Ze had niet alleen oog voor de groep maar ook individueel. Wat heel fijn en veilig voelde. Het was niet alleen een super mooie ervaring waar je ondergedompeld werd door cultuur en tradities, maar het was ook een mooie Spirituele reis om meer verbinding in jezelf te vinden en met anderen. Zeker een aanrader!!Posted on Google sylvie brTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Five stars can’t begin to express my feeling of wonder and gratitude for this journey. The amazing places you picked for us, all the wonderfull experiences, getting to know Bali, the Balinese religion and myself. It has been incredibly healing, sometimes going a little bit out of my comfortzone but always feeling safe with your gentle soul by our side. I’m going home feeling renewed and gratefull for this magical journey and the wonderfull people I got to know along the way and who have become true friends.

Alles werd tot in de puntjes verzorgd op de meest unieke locaties. Zowel eten, excursies, problemen oplossen en er gewoon zijn als je haar nodig had. De yoga sessies, breathworks, ze heeft pakken ervaring en ik ben blij dat ik de eerste stappen met haar kon zetten. Mocht ik opnieuw een retraite doen, dan zowiezo met haar ❤️Posted on Google Sarah ScheerlinckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can only recommend going on a retreat with Liza. Her warm and gentle approach make you feel at ease and peace. She creates the environment to guide you through your emotional or spiritual process, however that may look like. Besides that, she has a great organizing talent, making sure everything is meticulously planned.Posted on Google SarahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wat ben ik dankbaar dat ik deze Bali Zen-reis heb mogen beleven. Ik ging vooral om even tot rust te komen, maar ik heb zoveel meer gekregen dan dat. De yoga, de deelcirkels en de gesprekken hebben me echt geraakt. Er ontstonden mooie connecties en ik voelde me vanaf dag één helemaal op mijn gemak. Liza heeft deze reis op een heel warme en fijne manier begeleid. Ze voelde perfect aan wat de groep nodig had en creëerde een veilige sfeer waarin iedereen zichzelf kon zijn. Ik kijk terug op een reis vol mooie herinneringen, nieuwe inzichten en momenten die me nog lang zullen bijblijven. Twijfel je om mee te gaan? Gewoon doen. Het is echt een cadeautje aan jezelf. ❤️Posted on Google Caroline Van der HeijdenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This yoga retreat in Morocco was so much more than just a trip — it was a deeply touching, almost magical experience that will stay with me for a very long time. From the very first moment, you could feel how much love, dedication, and heart Liza and Maylu put into every single detail. Everything was incredibly well organized, which made it so easy to fully let go, relax, and simply be present in the moment. The atmosphere was filled with warmth, lightness, and a very special kind of energy that is hard to put into words. Between the beautiful yoga sessions, inspiring conversations, shared laughter, and the breathtaking scenery of Morocco, a space was created where true connection became possible — both with yourself and with others. The entire group also made this retreat something truly special. Every single participant was so open-hearted, kind, and genuine in their own unique way. From day one, there was this beautiful feeling of trust and community that made everything feel so natural and comforting. It never felt like being surrounded by strangers, but rather like meeting people who were meant to cross paths at exactly the right moment. Liza and Maylu created something truly unique: a safe, loving space filled with mindfulness, beauty, and genuine warmth. I came back home with an open heart, renewed energy, and so much gratitude. An absolutely magical experience that I can recommend from the bottom of my heart. ❤️✨🙏🧘♀️🏜Posted on Google Nicole PalmaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dear Liza and Maylu 🤍 A heartfelt thank you again and again for the beautiful space you created for all of us. This Morocco Retreat was my third retreat, and it has been such a wonderful and insightful experience to witness my own growth within the transformative container you both held with so much authenticity, warmth and care. From the authentic relating exercises, meditations, mantras, cacao ceremony, journaling, breathwork, massages and self-care practices, to the delicious nourishing food and the spacious, beautiful accommodation… everything felt thoughtfully curated to support healing, connection and continuous inner growth. What touched me most was not only everything we experienced, but the way I was able to reconnect with myself in such a gentle and honest way. I left feeling softer, lighter, more present and deeply inspired for the journey that continues from here. Thank you for your presence, your guidance and your hearts. This retreat was truly special, and I will carry it with me for a long time. ✨ With love and gratitude, RalucaPosted on Google Raluca ChioreanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was in Morocco with Your Soul Treats - Yoga Retreats. And I am absolutely in love with this time and experience. This Retreat was so well organized and structured. Liza put all of her heart and energy into it. I found honest and deep connections to everyone in the group. They felt like family from the first day on. All the Yoga classes, all the workshops and circles, felt healing and beautiful. Liza supported us through it all with a great sense of empathy, love and light. I learned a lot, also about myself. I was able to relax and recharge fully. We had great accomodations, delicious food and also enough free time to wander around Morocco and the desert or be with ourselves. I am very fulfilled and will definitely join the Retreat program again. ❤️Posted on Google Sophie RohrVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
