the pause is a quiet, deeply restorative escape for the woman who has been holding everything together for far too long.
each day includes a gentle guided practice to settle your system and help you return to yourself. there is no push, no expectation and no rush. you can choose conversation or quiet, movement or stillness, solitude or connection. everything adapts to what you need most.
your wooden villa sits among rice fields and gardens. cooler air drifts through open spaces. mornings begin with birdsong. nights are silent and grounding. nature holds you in a way that reminds your body it is safe to rest.
you will experience soft cultural moments without the hurry of typical tourism. a village walk. a welcome ceremony. simple offerings. malas you create with intention. slow glimpses of life that remind you how presence feels.
this is for the woman who:
longs for rest that reaches the parts of her she has ignored
finds clarity only when she finally stops doing
needs permission to exist without roles or expectations
craves the feeling of being looked after, fully and completely
yearns for space to reconnect with the woman beneath the burnout
a note from jodi
i created the pause because i know this kind of tired. i have lived it. and i know how life changes when you finally give yourself the kind of rest you never allow. you do not have to earn this break. you only have to arrive.
JOURNEY INCLUSIONS
here, you are held from the moment you arrive. every detail dissolves from your mind so your body and spirit can finally soften.
-
from the moment you land, you’re held. a warm welcome will be waiting, and you’ll be brought safely to and from your haven in the jungle without having to organise a thing.
if your flight is delayed, we’ll be watching and your driver will be there to meet you.
ease begins the moment you arrive.
-
your own private wooden villa, nestled among gardens and rice fields.
the cooler air means there’s no need for air-conditioning—fresh breezes drift through at night and the sounds of nature hold you close. bird song in the mornings, the occasional gecko in the evenings, and the gentle hum of village life beyond the trees.
with an outdoor bathroom open to the sky, even showering feels like part of the pause.
no monkeys here - only the quiet, grounding presence of nature.
-
every meal, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, is lovingly prepared. fresh, wholesome, and full of flavour. menus draw on traditional balinese cooking, gently infused with lighter international favourites.
food is cooked fresh onsite, served with daily juices, unlimited balinese coffee, tea, and filtered water.
nothing to plan, nothing to prepare—just sit down and be nourished.
-
a gentle welcome ceremony to honour the land that holds us.
a cultural day out, not rushed or busy, but moving at a softer pace: noticing the details, meeting the people, letting the experience remind you what it feels like to be fully present.
bicycles to wander through nearby villages and rice terraces, not for exercise but for the joy of moving slowly.
mala bead making: a meditative practice of threading each bead with intention. a keepsake that carries spiritual meaning. a reminder of the stillness and clarity you touched here.
-
each day begins with a gentle guided practice: a breath, a moment of stillness, a way to land in yourself before the day unfolds. you won’t be doing this alone.
i’ll be there every day—for conversation, for clarity, or for quiet presence. not to push you harder, but to remind you it’s safe to stop. this is the most intimate way to be supported by me, just 4 women, with my steady presence close each day.
-
a full hour of traditional balinese massage, offered in the comfort and privacy of your villa.
a simple touch of care that softens the body, rests the mind, and reminds you there is nowhere else you need to be.
-
there is no rush here, no decisions to make. you are guided gently to your haven in nature and even if your flight is delayed, nothing shifts. the welcome stays soft and steady. the retreat space is ours alone, held quietly by staff who care in the background so you never have to think about a thing. before you leave, your laundry is washed and folded so you return home with clean clothes, a clear mind and a little more space to breathe.
-
international flights to and from bali, entry permits, visas, and the tourist levy are your responsibility.
travel insurance is also required to journey with us.
you may choose to bring spending money for personal shopping or extras not listed in the inclusions.
if you’d like to leave a personal tip for the staff or housekeeping, that is always appreciated, but never expected.
everything else, from transfers and meals to your villa, massage, cultural experiences, and even your laundry - is already cared for.
this experience is offered for four women only, and the entire tranquil haven is reserved just for us. the gardens. the pool. the pathways. the morning air. all quiet, all ours. there’s a tenderness in a place this private… a sense that you can finally stop because nothing is demanded of you here.
this is why the pause feels different. no crowds. no shops. no traffic. just spaciousness, nature, and the restfulness your body has been craving.
burnout asks for room to breathe. the pause gives you that, fully.
