Juliet Lever2 weeks ago, 12 women joined me at the Jiwa Demai Organic Permaculture Farm in Ubud, Bali for a life-changing week of self-discovery at the inaugural Relaunch My Life Women’s Retreat.
The friendships and bonds I have come away with from this retreat will last a life time. It gave me clarity, self-love and confidence in my potential at a time when I most needed it. Thank you! Geli
This was something I dreamed of doing just 2 years ago when I was in Bali, trying to ‘find myself’ after my failed marriage.
I still can’t believe I did it! And it far surpassed my wildest imagination.
And for all of you who couldn’t be with us this time, I am excited to announce that ONE LUCKY PERSON WILL WIN A FREE TICKET TO MY NEXT BALI RETREAT – all you need to do to enter the chance to win a free place at my retreat is purchase a ticket to one of my nation-wide live events in May or my 6 step ‘Discover Yourself’ online program (and to win 3 entries in the competition, do both!).
The links are available for you here:

I just finished my first step and I am so excited to keep exploring my internal world and grateful to know you will be by my side to do so. Self education really is the key to happiness! Lots of love – Nadine

Now, for the retreat wrap up, here is a taste of what we experienced on the retreat!
Day 1 – WELCOME TO THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
The guests were given their retreat t-shirts, explained about the ‘love letters’ tradition Juliet always has at her retreats and were given a tour of our home for the next 6 days (the organic permaculture farm).
We had our first “Relaunch My Life” Workshop which was around seeing one another’s potential and seeing our own potential in each other.
This was profound as the women felt instantly connected to one another and saw what each other were capable of.
We all had a beautiful vegetarian organic meal and then some of the group went to a local ‘Ecstatic Dance’ evening.
A fantastic experience to get in touch with your soul, heal from within, and meet a beautiful tribe of likeminded women. Brooke
Day 2 – SHADOWS, SHOPPING AND RAW DESSERTS
After morning yoga and breakfast, we had the second “Relaunch My Life” workshop where the guests worked on their ‘Shadows’ and things they judge in other people (which when embraced, actually sets us free…).
In the afternoon, the group enjoyed a shopping trip to Ubud where the guests had the opportunity to barter at markets and explore the community of Ubud.
We then all enjoyed dinner at Clear Café in Ubud and delighted in delicious organic food and raw desserts.
At night Juliet led an evening meditation which progressed into the start of the 24 hours of silence.
Juliet explained her personal lifechanging experience of a silent day at a retreat in Bali several years earlier.
I was hesitant about signing up for the retreat at first because it seemed kind of self-indulgent. But I’m eternally grateful that I did. It was a life changing and inspiring experience. Give yourself permission – do it!
Day 3 – LISTENING TO THE SOUND OF YOUR SOUL
The group enjoyed massages, yoga and organic meals in silence.
The guests wrote, reflected, meditated, listened to the sounds of nature and listened to the silent calls of their own souls and intuition.
After dinner, Juliet broke the silence with a meditation where the guests all established a deep sense of connection within themselves that was found on the day of silence, so they can carry this connection forward in their lives always.
The group then shared their experiences with the day of silence.
This retreat was exactly what I needed, Juliet provided a safe space in which to share our stories and explore our potential. This experience is something I will never forget and the Silent Day was simply amazing. If this is something you are considering doing for yourself, I would highly recommend one of Juliet’s retreats. – Sharyn
Day 4 – PALM READINGS AND RELAUNCH MY LIFE PLANNING
The guests each had one on one sessions with Juliet and shared their hopes and dreams for the future. Juliet reminded the guests what she had noticed about them during the week, gave them a symbolic gift to serve as a reminder of this strength and thanked them for their individual grace, presence and self-awareness.
On this day, all the guests also visited a local Palm Reader’s house, which is adorned with beautiful flowers and they received very clear and accurate readings on their lives and future paths.
In the evening, the group got dressed up and enjoyed a ‘White and Light’ themed dinner where they shared funny stories, did henna and even sang ‘Lean on Me’ acoustic (thanks Geli, this was a VERY memorable moment for me!).
I had an enlightening and insightful trip and I am totally amazed at the strength and love found in our beautiful group!!! I smiled and laughed sooo much and it was truly a Soul healing journey ❤️ Sharon
Day 5 – WATERFALLS, PERMACULTURE AND LETTING GO
On day 5, half of the group went back into Ubud for more shopping whilst the other half experienced a Permaculture Workshop run by Dr Margret Rueffler (founder of Jiwa Demai) where the group realised that how they are in nature is how they are with themselves.
After lunch, the group went to local waterfall (Tegunungan) and marvelled at the natural, spiritual and cleansing beauty of this place.
In the evening, there was a bonfire lit and each of the guests burned the things they were ready to ‘let go of’ emotionally in their lives.
After dinner, Juliet ran a final group meditation about stepping into our future and stepping into their most powerful lives.
“Juliet is amazing, it was THE best 6 days I have ever given myself for myself. Robyn Smith xx “
Day 6 –FAREWELL LIFELONG FRIENDS
On this final morning, the group enjoyed a traditional prayer and offering ceremony with one of the locals. The group had the opportunity to place offerings around the retreat center as the final farewell.
As the women disembarked, it was clear to see how much each and every one of them had grown, changed and connected over the week.
This retreat opened up new doors for me. I found myself and realised that we have the answers within. – Anna Q.
If you want to join me on the February 2017 retreat and are not currently a client of mine, then I highly encourage you to start your journey of self-discovery by joining my online program or attending a live event if you are in Australia (or better yet, do both!).

Fair call to say that Juliet has changed my life for the good. A warm and caring soul – lots of knowledge and positive energy. Juliet is an amazing Teacher. Highly recommend her in everything she does. – Anita
I look forward to walking alongside you on the journey of reaching your highest potential and I hope to see you in Bali!
Lots of love,
