The Intention
There are few places we’ve been where the embodiment of reciprocity is as beautifully and tangibly felt as in Bali. This sacred dance of giving and receiving is truly heart opening to experience — and we can’t wait to explore that dance with everyone joining us on the island of gods this September.
In Tantra, divinity isn’t something outside of you — it’s within you, and it’s all around you. The body, the breath, the elements, sensation, emotion, stillness. Tantra invites us to meet the divine through lived experience, through presence, through embodiment.
We created Divine Essence for those who feel the pull to journey inward, while also connecting outward with the surroundings and sacred land of Bali.
An exploration into yoga, tantra, and embodiment practices to guide you toward a deeper connection with the wisdom of your body and heart.
The Space
Shala ;- the Sanskrit word for home.
The Shala Bali will be our sanctuary during our Bali immersion, which was lovingly created as a home for people from around the world to learn, share and preserve the ancient practices of Yoga and to experience the benefits of integrated well-being.
Nestled in the breathtaking beauty of Ubud, this retreat is grounded in the ancient wisdom of Balinese and Indian philosophy.
The retreat is also home to Darshana Veda Spa, where you can experience the renewing power of Mother Nature. With the soothing energy of Bali, you will be gently guided into a state of balance and presence.
Their philosophy is built on the belief that nature holds everything needed to heal the body. You can enjoy authentic treatments and natural products, crafted with love and care, honoring the ancient healing traditions of Indian and Balinese medicine.
We invite you to find your peace amid lush greenery, flickering candles, and the calming sound of flowing water.
This retreat is for women who are ready to drop deeper — beneath the surface, beyond the stories — into the truth of their bodies and their hearts. Through the ancient pathways of yoga and Tantra, we invite more presence, more feeling, more intentional living.
This isn’t about escaping life — it’s about learning to meet it with open arms.
Together, in Bali’s sacred beauty and supported by sisterhood, we’ll soften, awaken, and remember what’s always been within us.

What you loved said last time.
“Varsana is wonderful at creating a space with the perfect balance of yoga, time for reflection and rest and activities. My time on the retreat really has set me up for a journey of personal growth with more confidence and clarity. I loved every single minute of every single day.”
“I have been on three retreats with Varsana and every time I think it can’t get any better yet my expectations are exceeded every time. So much love and heart is so deeply rooted in each experience, different and healing and unique in their own magnificent ways. The connections built on these spaces is so unique, sometimes arriving not knowing anyone and complete strangers, and leaving becoming true soul sisters, with the most magical memories. Love love love!”
“It is so hard to put how wonderful these retreats are into words. This is my second Varsana Hart retreat and it most certainly will not be my last! These retreats are so much more than a vacation-it is a fully immersed experience of healing, connecting, growing, and relaxing all bundled into one.”
“Where do I begin? This retreat was so beautifully curated. Every single aspect was oozing with intention, love and just pure magic. I couldn’t have imagined how special it would be.”
