A Sanctuary for Personal Transformation and Deep Healing in Bali

Our Story & Vision

Giri Sunyata Retreat is a private, family-led sanctuary rooted in Balinese spiritual lineage. Here, transformation is not an event, it is a lived experience, shaped with care, guided by tradition, and personalized to the unique journey of each guest.


This is a place where the sacred and the personal meet, where ancient practices support modern lives, and where transformation is both gentle and profound.

Who We Serve

  • Conscious leaders seeking clarity, renewal, and alignment with purpose


  • Creators replenishing the inner well from which authentic inspiration flows


  • Spiritual seekers drawn to authentic practice rooted in lived tradition


  • Those in transition standing at life's crossroads, ready for deeper guidance

  • Feeling drained or disconnected from themselves
  • Standing at a crossroads without a clear way forward
  • Seeking spiritual growth rooted in authentic practice
  • Looking for guidance that is both trustworthy and experienced
  • Wanting to experience the real Bali, not its commercialized version

Guests often leave with:

  • Clarity of mind and renewed sense of direction
  • A deeper connection to self, nature, and spirit
  • Practical tools for integrating inner work into daily life
  • A felt sense of belonging and family
  • Lasting transformation that continues to unfold

Name Origin & Philosophy

 A name carries intention. Giri Sunyata is a path we walk. 

GIRI

In Sanskrit and Balinese, Giri means "mountain", symbolizing stability, strength and the spiritual ascent to a higher perspective, deeper purpose and truth.  

SUNYATA

Sunyata is a Buddhist concept meaning "emptiness" or infinite potential. It reflects clarity, openness and the liberation that comes from releasing attachments and illusions.

RETREAT

A “retreat” is a journey inward for healing, renewal, and transformation. It’s a sacred pause to reflect, reconnect and align with your true self in a nurturing and peaceful environment. 

A JOURNEY INWARD

“Giri Sunyata Retreat” represents a sacred journey to inner transformation. Like a mountain “Giri”, it provides stability and strength, guiding you toward higher truths. Rooted in “Sunyata”, it offers the clarity and openness of infinite potential. As a “Retreat”, it is a nurturing sanctuary for reflection, healing, and realignment with your true self.


Our Essence

Our Essence

Our Essence

 Giri Sunyata is a sacred container for personal transformation and embodied wisdom. Rooted in Balinese spirituality and universal healing principles, it bridges the traditional and the contemporary, the sacred and the practical.

This is not about spiritual trends or surface wellness, but about soul remembrance, a return to the quiet truth that has always been within. Through sacred rituals, deep counseling, and honoring ancestral presence, we invite each guest to pause, realign, and walk a deeper path in life.

Our Vision

Our Essence

Our Essence

 To be a living temple of remembrance, where ancestral wisdom, sacred presence, and embodied transformation guide each person home to their true nature. We envision a world where healing is relational, not transactional, where tradition is not forgotten but lived. 


 "We are here to serve those who long to remember, and to preserve the sacred for those yet to come." 

Our Mission

Giri means "mountain" in Sanskrit and Balinese, symbolizing stability and spiritual ascent. Sunyata is a Buddhist concept meaning "emptiness" or infinite potential. Together, the name represents a stable sanctuary for inner transformation where you can release what no longer serves and discover your true nature. 


Unlike commercial retreat centers, we are a family of temple keepers and healers living our practice. You stay in our actual home and temple, receiving personalized care as family, not clients. We integrate authentic Balinese spiritual traditions with modern healing modalities, creating transformation that is both sacred and practical. 


Our Pay It Forward model is a form of karmic reciprocity where paid retreats fund subsidized healing programs for local Balinese community members. When you invest in your transformation, you directly support cultural preservation and make healing accessible to those who cannot afford it. 


 Our retreats are fully customized to your needs, typically ranging from 3-14 days. We also offer single-day healing sessions and half-day programs for those not ready for full retreat immersion. The duration depends on your goals and the depth of transformation you're seeking.
