Capturing the magic of the Island of the gods 🌅
Such a wonderful night in our Wellness Retreat learning about Balinese traditions, culture, stories and spending time with people who went from strangers, to friends and at Namaste Fitness, friends are FAMILY.
On the 4th day in Bali, our guests got to experience a beautiful night immersing themselves in Balinese energy from the food on the table to the music, the dances, the cultural show and their religious/sacred practices of making offerings in gratitude to the world around them.
The Canang Sari is a daily Balinese Hindu offering made of a woven palm-leaf tray filled with colorful flowers, rice, and a lit incense stick. Placed on doorsteps, shrines, and street corners, it expresses gratitude, honors the gods, and maintains spiritual balance in everyday life.
Balinese people don’t have to go to a temple or to a special designated place of offerings or prayer to honor and express love for life and the universe around them.
In their offering, they focus on purity, energy, prosperity, balance and reverence to the divine. All of this wrapped in the intention of GRATITUDE and done several times a day. They give thanks for peace in the world through actions of self-sacrifice and hard work.
We invite you to take time to reflect on your offerings to yourself and to the world around you; how can you center yourself today and give thanks for the blessings you have received today, this week, this year…
How can you find more peace in your life with what you have and how can you continue on a path of self-awareness to make peace a permanent state in your life…
If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery to incorporate new practices that will enrich your life and make it brighter, more full and more peaceful, meet us at our next Retreat or simply start by showing up on your mat for daily intentional practice. We’re more than just a Yoga or Fitness studio where you come to move, sweat and feel strong, we are a space for healing and we will give you as many tools as we can offer so you can achieve that. Namaste.
