I went to Paradise with a wounded heart and an open mind; by the end of the first full day, I knew that I had made a great decision...
For me, the week at this Holistic Retreat was a wonderful journey of deep reflection, new learning, thoughtful conversation and, ultimately, much needed emotional release.
Mitch has skillfully crafted and coordinated an effective program, utilizing the strengths of a variety of healing practitioners who are
knowledgeable, compassionate, and caring. They worked with each of us individually, creating a safe environment within which we were encouraged to explore our feelings, face our fears and recognize the connections between our physical and emotional pain and wellbeing.
A wonderfully surprising element was the bonding which occurred within our group.... the women who went through this experience with me became my confidantes and my friends, making the entire experience even more special!
Thank you, Mitch, for providing me with the opportunity to engage in such a rich experience; thank you Ibu Made for your nurturing and delicious cooking; thank you to all of our ‘healers’ for facilitating the ‘work’, and thank you, my Girls (Sarah, Karen, Meagan, Bridget, (and Indah too!)), for the beautiful gift of your friendship. ❤️

Mitch has created a very special environment with a wonderful team of people to restore heart, body, mind and soul. My experience was of being nurtured, inspired and stretched within a supportive group of women who were willing to laugh, cry and dance salsa! I loved all the input and have new knowledge and a stronger connection with myself and my own unique energy.

Thank you to Mitch, Made and the team for a fantastic experience.
Made your food is for the soul and truly wonderful and thank you for the hospitality.
I arrived at the villa and instantly became relaxed and enjoyed the serenity and the location.
The retreat is so much more than words it is a catalyst to your spiritual journey empowered by a wonderful group of healers and experiences.
The Retreat was made richer by my fellow travellers who descended from different places in the world and the beautiful Balinese people.
For anyone wanting to have an experience of a life time I would recommend you start here on your journey.

I still can’t think of a perfect word to describe this out of this world experience.
For me, each healer knew exactly what to do for me and helped me find out things about myself I didn’t know. The villa is stunning and the whole experience will just have you on a high.
Made I miss your soul food and will never forget it, I’m trying to recreate your perfect teas!!
Nothing I can say can do this experience enough justice. Just phenomenal. Thank you all so so so much.

Mitch, your retreat was truly a magical experience. I needed to heal, and Villa Paradise and all those involved, allowed me to heal in a safe and loving environment. You, Mitch, are amazing and the healers that you had working with us are second to none!
Monique and Nancy, you are amazing healing partners!
Thank you Mitch for the love and safe environment you have given me. This experience has changed my life forever!
With Love, Marilyn

Thanks to Mitch, Monica and all the wonderful people linked to the retreat. The things I saw, spoke about, heard, experienced, shifted and have learnt are certainly life changing. It may sound cliche, but I have returned to Australia with a greater awareness of myself, others, the world and the life I want to lead, I am 100% in the driver's seat! I have shifted many "things" that I felt held me back, but I now see these as learning opportunities and teachings to move me to where I need and want to be in this life. Every therapist/healer I met with, connected with me on some level, were completely honest, compassionate and professional, allowing me to feel comfortable to leave nothing in the tank to get maximal results. I feel alive, vibrant, energised, proud and humble all in one. The food was amazing every day, as were the facilities. No better way to start my 2018, and the rest of my life! Thanks team x

If you are reading this testimonial because you like what you’ve seen on this site so far, but need reassurance that this all really is as good as it sounds, BOOK IT NOW. Trust your instincts. I went into it thinking it would be at least interesting and give me some good stories to share back home, and if I was lucky, maybe... possibly... it might even change my life a little. If you bring an open mind (skepticism is allowed), it will deliver in all of those ways and more. The changes to your life can be as small as you want them to be, but there’s nothing small about what you will take away.
Mitch, who is an excellent facilitator, host, and human being, is doing this for the right reasons. He sincerely just wants to make it easier for people to find the healing and growth they are looking for. To that end, he has thoughtfully put together an experience like I’ve seen nowhere else, and never thought to imagine.
You will meet with healers who have compelling levels of knowledge, perception, and insight, even if it’s in areas you know little about when you arrive. Though western cultures don’t treat their expertise as mainstream, I found these healers to be credible, down to earth, compassionate, attuned to the unique needs of each guest, and able to offer practical guidance and tools for improving your life. Listen thoughtfully, and you can learn more about yourself in one week than in months or even years of therapy. Not all healers resonate equally with all guests, but the variety of healing modalities guarantees everyone will have important take-aways.
On top of the high impact sessions with the healers, you will also nurture your body through yoga, tai chi, massage, and great food, lovingly prepared by the outstanding Made and Iluh at the villa. It is a truly holistic experience.
If that weren’t enough, you’ll also learn from and about your fellow guests, as you debrief the sessions with the healers and share stories from “real life.” We had several rich discussions about our beliefs, including the belief that the unique collection of people gathered for our week together was no accident. We could hold up mirrors for each other, challenge assumptions (without challenging the person), share insights and resources, and offer encouragement and support for the journey ahead.
This retreat is by far the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.I am still integrating all the great insights I picked up while there, and will continue for who knows how long. I am still in Bali as I write this, but I’m confident that I will go home better equipped to care for myself, to navigate what life throws my way, and to set myself up for success. If any of this resonates with you, I can’t see how you would regret it!
I can’t thank you enough Mitch, Made, Iluh, Monica, Kadek, and all the healers, for this amazing experience.
Alex 12/1/2017 02:49:55 pm
My journey with the Holistic Retreat Bali was what I needed. What attracted me the most? Verities of treatments and activities very well balanced. Everyone was so kind and helpful. My suggestion is going in with an open mind and let the experience just flow. Whatever happens let it happen, you will be amazed the work you will be able to accomplish and the healing you will do. Thank you to everyone who made this experience so amazing and memorable.
Katie Stevenson 11/8/2017 07:45:53 pm
I just want to say what an incredible experience from start to finish. I was on the retreat on the 22nd October and it was really a life changing experience. Not only did I meet a bunch of ladies who I shall stay in contact with for a very long time but Mitch and the team were all wonderful and catered for every aspect.
I loved every single treatment I received, we had a range everyday - along with some fabulous days out expereincing true Balinese healing at its best.
I would highly recommend this amazing retreat to anyone who is wanting to change their lives in a more positive way & open their eyes to new ways of thinking....
Loved every minute of it!
Thanks,
Katie
Caroline 10/9/2017 06:37:03 pm
Wow, Wow, Wow, what an absolutely amazing week spent with Mitch and the team at the retreat. The Universe sent me here, and I had a totally open mind, not really knowing what to expect but embracing and enjoying every minute of it.
From arriving at the airport to leaving everything was planned and arranged for the whole week, all you need to do is relax and go with the flow, there is no pressure and plenty of time to have "ME" time, as well as soak up the chilled atmosphere and enjoy the sessions.
3 hearty, healthy meals a day prepared with love by Made and Olu, who could not do more for you, always with Big Happy Smiles and Laughs to go with it.
All the healers and therapists are extremely friendly, understanding and listen and take interest in you, and are more than happy to chat after your sessions. Mitch is something else... it takes someone very very special to facilitate a retreat, and he certainly has that, always has a story/joke to tell, and his "Man Cave" is always open for a chat at anytime.
The accommodation and the Villa itself is so peaceful, and clean, there is nothing I could find fault with, it's perfect.
I won't go into details about the sessions, visiting the healers and the Temple, because I don't want to spoil it for you, just go with an open heart and mind and you will be truly rewarded in ways you never knew possible.
One week later, I'm still revelling in the whole experience, and meeting my new friends, Adam, Lucie and Joan, the 4 of us were definately kindred spirits, brought together by the Universe and Mitch, to share an unbelievable, amazing week.
I left full of love, light and Big Smiles and a renewed spirit, thank you to all of you, you will always be in my heart and prayers.
Peace and Blessings
Adam 10/4/2017 02:16:29 pm
A life changing experience. I believe in things now that I never would have. I have filled a dark hole within that is now a strong light in my heart and my head. I felt truly happy. A gift that was shared by my fellow seekers. My friends. Mitch and his amazing team have left a legacy that is priceless. You can't afford not to do this. Just keep an open mind and you'll walk away with a full spirit and a Bali smile.
Lucie Gearing 10/4/2017 03:29:38 am
Hi all. I am beyond happy for choosing the Holistic Retreat Bali. It was meant to be!!
It's been an eye (s) opening and life changing (my job now to put things into practise) experience!!
It's been very intense and yet so relaxed. We got to see many healers, practised yoga, tai chi, morning meditations, massages and went through the cleansing ceremony at the Tampaksiring temple.
We got to eat beautiful and healthy food cooked by lovely Madie and Ilu at the villa. Villa itself was amazing. It felt like home!! If you are a private person, there is enough of space for you to chill and soak it all up. You can wonder off to the market, go to the beach or have an extra massage outside the retreat if you wish to do so.
There were four of us at the retreat: myself, Caroline, Joan and Adam. We had a lot in common and found it easy to talk to each other. It's amazing to think that we all come from different parts of the world and met at the retreat to go through "same experience" ! Friends forever :-)
I only wish now that the retreat was two weeks long :-)
Mitch is an amazing individual. His sense of humour is unbelievable (in a good way). Him and Adam were the two main entertainers at meal times :-)) ...obviously the Australian blood :-)
I am really grateful for this wonderful experience. I would do it all over again without the doubt!!
I will treasure those moments forever.
I strongly recommend this retreat for your personal growth and self discovery. Love to you all xx

Jennie 12/15/2017 02:28:55 am
I had a truly wonderful week. I felt "heavy" when I went away - you know how things in life just build up - and I felt drained. By the end of the week I felt calm, strong, healthy and well rested - although leaving was a bit of a wrench!
I loved everything about the experience - I loved being looked after and not having to think - all the (yummy) food and experiences are simply brought to you and I looked forward to every day to see what would unfold. I particularly loved the daily meditations, new yoga techniques you simply can't get down the gym in the West and meeting all the healers and practitioners was thrilling, interesting and intriguing.
You also feel "safe" in the hands of Mitch, Made and Ilu - the feeling of friendship and family is immediate. As for our group, well we had intensity, amazing conversations, a relaxed atmosphere and many many comedy moments which keep me giggling now. so if you are reading this and thinking of booking, and it feels right, that's because it is...book. Thank you for having me Mitch and Bali, I loved it x
Kerri 9/27/2017 11:47:13 pm
I went there with an open heart and an open mind and left with so much more than I ever expected. Thank you so much to Mitch for your guidance and open minded attitude and your great sense of humour which had me constantly laughing. Thank you to beautiful Maday who made the most amazing yummy healthy meals for us, to the rest of the staff and to the amazing healers. You truly have the gift of healing. And how could I forget the 4 wonderful guests who took this journey with me. Thanks for the laughs and the memories :)
Beth Leodler 9/27/2017 04:53:45 am
Mitch is not your typical "guru," but I found his "open-minded skepticism" to be exactly what I needed. He has truly found experts in their field from traditional Balinese healers to people from around the world in reiki etc. This is SO much more than the yoga retreats in the rest of Bali. If I choose to let in what I learned at this retreat, it truly will be life-changing. I couldn't recommend it all more highly!
Trev zander 9/20/2017 09:23:27 pm
This was the best experience I have ever had, it was more than what expected from the healers and all the wonderful staff, thanks Mitch
Christine 9/14/2017 06:05:35 pm
Hi Mitch,
Thank you so much for an amazing week! I wasn't in a good place when I arrived, suffering depression, anxiety and various other emotional and mental issues. As a facilitator you pulled together a well thought out schedule for each person and you gently guided us through the journey give support, advice and sometimes a shoulder or ear. Each of the sessions provided a different approach but they all complimented each other.
I came away from this retreat feeling like my old bubbly happy self, knowing I was on the right path and moving forward to a better mental state. My friends and family and work colleagues have all noticed the positive change and commented me about it.
Thanks again Mitch and the team, you were all amazing!
I would highly recommend this retreat!
Thanks
Chrissy
Christine 9/14/2017 06:09:52 pm
I forgot to mention that the food was amazing! I was so impressed with the uncomplicated way in which you and Mayday were able to cater for my various dietary requirements of gluten, dairy and egg free. Above and beyond, thank you x
Marisa 9/3/2017 04:14:30 pmHi Mitch,
I would like to thank you for a fabulous retreat experience. I came along with no preconceived expectations as to outcome and found myself fully revitalised and energised by the varied retreat activities on offer.
Your relaxed and non judgemental facilitator style made it easy to take away with me what I was open to receive and felt welcomed and appreciated throughout the "home stay" like environment of your villa facilities.
I would thoroughly recommend your retreat to anyone wanting a place to stay in Bali which truly enables contact with the healing qualities of Balinese lifestyle.
Lots of love to you all

Laura 8/28/2017 12:05:30 pm
I have worked in the "healing" world for most of my adult life. From my early 20's I have "worked" on myself...attending workshops, intensives, retreats etc. Now at the age of 54 yrs, I began hitting a cross roads. I was looking for something that could help push the "re-set" button. With all of the "knowledge" that I had acquired through years of personal development, studying and working with clients, I became discouraged about finding something that could actually help me see myself, others and the world in a new light. On July 2nd I began searching for a retreat to attend. I knew that I did not want to go to anything that involved psychological inner child work, intense yoga, or raw food cleansing etc. I wanted to reconnect with Source...the divine Power without and my Power and Beauty within. I quickly found "An Inner Voyage" and emailed the Director, Mitch. Within the first prompt response that I received, my answer was YES. Three and a half weeks later, I was on a plain flying alone Toronto, Canada to Bali (approximately 27 hours). What unfolded at the retreat is difficult to put into words...which is quite new for me:) What I can attest to, is that saying YES to attend An Inner Voyage Retreat, was the best decision that I have made for myself, to date. I accomplished my initial intention and so much more. Since returning, I am resting in a much more quiet state of reflection, presence and a renewed sense of inspiration. The Gratitude that I am in touch with now...fills my heart...THANK YOU to Mich for creating this space and bringing in such beautiful and powerful healers to work with us. For the first time, I returned with tangible and simple tools to continue and enhance my renewed state of being. If anyone out there is searching the the "RESET" in your own life...say YES and you will not be disappointed. To date, going was the best decision that I have made for myself...and it goes without saying, the best money that I have spent on myself:):)...
Heather 8/20/2017 05:36:07 am
My thanks to Mitch for having the foresight to recognise the real need for an authentic healing retreat and put together individual healing timetables for each and every one of our group. We all agreed that each type of healing was perfectly timed over our 6 days.
I particularly mention Bridget for her intuitive kinesiology sessions, and her follow through reports of the healings, which I have received since returning home. Bridget is indeed one of a kind 🦋 And has given me insight into my way forward both physically and spiritually.
Michele, so unique - thank you so much for all the indepth work you did with me, you have truly lifted and cut out negative patterns, for which I had no personal control, but have now been set free.
I am truly blessed to have connected with four other women in our group and I know we will remain close and supportive of each other in our ways forward.
Lindi 8/17/2017 05:26:02 pm

Lindi .
Justine 8/15/2017 01:19:02 am
A big thankyou to Mitch for my amazing experience at the retreat, everyday included something special.
For me, each healing brought forward something profound which left me speechless every time. The true gift that each person involved with this retreat has, is truly remarkable.
Made and Elu looked after us so well, nothing was ever too much trouble and every meal was absolutely delicious.
Hand on heart, I got so much out of this retreat, more than i ever thought possible. For me, it was raw and personal, but so supportive with lots of laughter to keep the spirits high. I have never felt more balanced, positive and excited to move forward.
Once again, thankyou thankyou thankyou! :) xx
Jackie 8/5/2017 05:04:53 pm
Each day of the retreat was well organised with a balance of meditation, yoga, healings and quiet time.
I left the retreat with a profound sense of deep inner peace and many skills to use back home.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
Kate . S 6/29/2017 12:27:04 am

A spiritual retreat done in such a unique way..i will highly recommended to everyone.
Mandee S. 6/28/2017 10:03:30 am
When I made the decision to attend this retreat people thought I had lost my mind. The truth is I did lose my mind but I found my soul. Bali is exactly what I needed and this retreat was perfect. The healers combined with the amazing food was exactly what I needed. I would recommend this retreat to anyone who is looking to find healing and their authentic self. Mitch has created a perfect blend of healers, who really show up in such a loving way.
Catrina 7/10/2017 10:06:49 am
We all came from different backgrounds, with different stories and different reasons for being here. But we all were joined by our passion and determination to live our lives to the fullest again, to relight the flame that had faded away, and to improve ourselves and to learn. This retreat gave me more than I ever imagined. It opened my mind up to so many things. The healers were incredible and every single one of them gave me something valuable which I will never forget. They are some of the most understanding and inspiring people I have ever met, and I would come back to Bali in a heartbeat. Going to this retreat was really one of the best decisions I made. It has been 6 weeks now since the retreat and it still is very much a strong part of my every day life. Friends are seeing a positive change in me - in my actions, nutritional intake, even this retreat managed to get me out of negative addictions and got me addicted to the gym would you believe! Not only did the retreat more than exceed my expectations, but it gave me some amazing friends who I could talk to about anything, and I still chat with them and remain close with them which is amazing :) Many people may be sceptical about the idea of a retreat, and to be honest I was at first! But I promise you if you are already thinking to go it is 100% worth it. Thankyou Mitch and everyone for the life changing experience, hope to see you all again one day :)
Shaun M 6/2/2017 09:09:05 pm
So what can I say that hasn't already been said because every word of it is true. I guess my own journey was one of being completely lost with not knowing where to turn or who to turn too. All our answers are within us but with all the hustle and bustle of daily life it's often hard to gain entry to our own inner stillness to find out what's best for us and without it the darkness and negativity can easily overcome our true nature. So this is to all those beautiful souls that have or seem to of lost their way but desperately seeking the light, to all those that feel they just want to end it all because of the heaviness of life and all it contains. I promise you if you go on this journey with an open heart for change, change will come for you!
On this retreat I have seen and experienced things I never thought possible, it has honestly and truly been mind altering for me or should I say mind expanding because that is exactly what it has done for me. I havnt got the words to express my deep deep gratitude for this experience and inner voyage.
If you pray to your God, Lord, supreme soul, universal energy or whatever name you call your creator for help to relieve you from your darkness, maybe he/she has lead you here as it did me because this retreat may of just saved my life my friend. It is certainly not like me to post this on the web but if it helps guild you to your own peace then it's worth it ! I need you to know that your not alone and these amazing healers that Mitch has put together understand completely and only have your best interest at heart, they really can help you release your burdens and help your heart smile from within.
A big massive thank you to everyone of the healers but with special thanks to Graham and Michele and the beautiful caring heart of mad'e who cared and cooked for us on this journey.
None of this was possible without the amazing soul called Mitch, his one of a kind with an insight that very few people gain. A true Gent and a very funny man all the way through this experience but also serious, deep and thought provoking when you need that also.
This has changed my outlook on life and if your reading this I believe it can for you my friend!
You are not alone and the fact of the matter is ALL IS ONE !
Thanks again Mitch, it's been incredible!
Robin George 5/30/2017 10:47:55 pm
This Bali holistic retreat is truely life changing. Mitch is fantastic and really down to earth and has lots of little gems to give you along the way. We laughed we cried and some of us even screamed but I think we all walked away with an experience we will never forget.The healers are amazing and the lovely Marde looked after us like a mother hen. Thank you Mitch and all your amazing healers you are associated with. I would have no hesitation in recommending this fabulous experience.
Robin
Sue Dyck 5/31/2017 07:48:21 pm
I was both excited and apprehensive in attending the Holistic retreat in April. It was a lot of money for me and a lot of time out of my holiday. I was not disappointed. Mitch has done an excellent job of choosing an interesting group of individuals with varied gifts to spend time with. Quality, meaningful time. Each experience was unique and now very much treasured. The week was full but not too busy. Very comfortable and casual. My very favorites were Graham, who specialized in reiki and counsel and Rani treated us all royally with all her extra touches. A beautiful soul. Thank you all again and maybe our paths will cross again. Sue
Meagan 4/25/2017 07:48:06 pm
I am so thankful to Mitch for organizing what I can only describe as an incredible experience, as well as to the villa staff for taking such great care of us, the healers for their amazing gifts and abilities, and the other retreat guests for going through this with me and sharing their stories and experiences. I wasn't really sure how things would actually play out once I booked the retreat, but I'm so glad I found this and did it. Mitch has really put together a great group of people, from the healers to the villa staff and himself included, and I've gained so much knowledge and insight from this week. Truly, Mitch and all, thank you so much.
Christina 3/26/2017 03:21:42 pm
Does something keep drawing you back to Bali Holistic Retreat's website? Then follow your intuition and go. Mitch paints an accurate picture of what you'll find, and it's so much more. It was one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
You are surrounded by beautiful, genuine and authentic people - in a truly tranquil setting - as you go on a journey of discovery, and take the time to invest in yourself. Lee, Lucy, Marjolein and Rob: thank you for your friendship, warmth and humour. Mitch, thank you for your openness, care and conversation. You have created something special and unique. I hope that many more people get to experience this in the years to come.
Lee McNab 3/17/2017 11:49:36 pm
As one of the members of the March 2017 retreat I wish to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mitch for an amazinmg opportunity to be part of your retreat.

Marjolein, Lucy, Christina and Rob thank you for your friendship and especially to the girls your support and late night counselling sessions were greatly appreciated. A truly enlightening experience. Highly recommended. Love and laughter.

A truly incredible experience! Every day of the retreat I woke up and literally felt a big hug to my soul. Mitch, his staff and all the healers have created a safe, loving and nurturing environment where you can be on your own inner journey and know you are not alone. Everything about this retreat is genuine and balanced and there are no egos involved. Upon arriving home I thought I'd have a huge come down from the retreat, but in fact I have felt stronger, lighter, more hopeful and more energised than ever. Beautiful energies, support and friendship from Ruby, Wendy, Chantelle and Penny made my experience even more special. Mitch, a huge thank you to you and all the beautiful people in your fold. x

Chantelle ( No email )
2/20/2017 02:34:59 amWhere do I start! I looked through many options for a retreat that would tick the box for some ME time and to focus on my self development. I didn't want to go somewhere that was overly spirtitual or formal and I am so glad I came across this retreat. This was a life changing experience for me. Mitch is a wonderful host and so relatable to everyone. The Indonesian cuisine was amazing. Your every need is catered for. I felt so at home and safe and can gladly call everyone my family. I would highly recommend this to anyone who may be stuck in a rut and looking to take their own inner voyage. Thank you again to Mitch and the gang for making me feel so a thing home and giving me the experience and tools I can take home to make myself an even better me X
Penny ( penny.flere@me.com )
2/20/2017 12:27:52 amThankyou so much to yourself and all the beautiful people we worked with, Mitch! To anyone reading this, I cannot recommend this experience enough! You learn so many things about yourself and get a myriad of tools to integrate your newfound enlightenment into your life. It all happens in a beautiful, nurturing and positive environment and the villa is such a peaceful slice of heaven. I could go on for so much longer but all I'll say is that my life has been enriched, my eyes have been opened and my heart is incredibly happy and content.

I researched retreats for a while and when this one came up I knew it was the one instantly. I went in with an open mind and I wasn't disappointed. If your sitting there wondering if this might be the right Retreat ? I'd say stop overthinking it, you won't be disappointed booking this Retreat. I learnt so much and found an inner strength and clarity I didn't know I had. The food was amazing, the accomodation was great and having everything booked and taken care of for you was a huge bonus. A big thank you to all the wonderful staff and amazing healers. This was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. A big thanks to Mitch and all the work that goes into making it the wonderful experience that it was.

I went to Paradise with a wounded heart and an open mind; by the end of the first full day, I knew that I had made a great decision...
For me, the week at this Holistic Retreat was a wonderful journey of deep reflection, new learning, thoughtful conversation and, ultimately, much needed emotional release.
Mitch has skillfully crafted and coordinated an effective program, utilizing the strengths of a variety of healing practitioners who are
knowledgeable, compassionate, and caring. They worked with each of us individually, creating a safe environment within which we were encouraged to explore our feelings, face our fears and recognize the connections between our physical and emotional pain and wellbeing.
A wonderfully surprising element was the bonding which occurred within our group.... the women who went through this experience with me became my confidantes and my friends, making the entire experience even more special!
Thank you, Mitch, for providing me with the opportunity to engage in such a rich experience; thank you Ibu Made for your nurturing and delicious cooking; thank you to all of our ‘healers’ for facilitating the ‘work’, and thank you, my Girls (Sarah, Karen, Meagan, Bridget, (and Indah too!)), for the beautiful gift of your friendship. ❤️

Mitch has created a very special environment with a wonderful team of people to restore heart, body, mind and soul. My experience was of being nurtured, inspired and stretched within a supportive group of women who were willing to laugh, cry and dance salsa! I loved all the input and have new knowledge and a stronger connection with myself and my own unique energy.

Thank you to Mitch, Made and the team for a fantastic experience.
Made your food is for the soul and truly wonderful and thank you for the hospitality.
I arrived at the villa and instantly became relaxed and enjoyed the serenity and the location.
The retreat is so much more than words it is a catalyst to your spiritual journey empowered by a wonderful group of healers and experiences.
The Retreat was made richer by my fellow travellers who descended from different places in the world and the beautiful Balinese people.
For anyone wanting to have an experience of a life time I would recommend you start here on your journey.

I still can’t think of a perfect word to describe this out of this world experience.
For me, each healer knew exactly what to do for me and helped me find out things about myself I didn’t know. The villa is stunning and the whole experience will just have you on a high.
Made I miss your soul food and will never forget it, I’m trying to recreate your perfect teas!!
Nothing I can say can do this experience enough justice. Just phenomenal. Thank you all so so so much.

Dear Mitch,
There is nothing I can add to Marilyns experience, the week I spend at Vila Paradies was great in all aspects.
I enjoyed every moment of it and still feel the effects of the experinced sessions now I am home and back into every day life.
I am missing out on Made cooking but will try to eat as helty as I can for I physically I feel better then for a long time. Thank you all !!
Marilyn deRooy 3/13/2018 01:52:16 am
Mitch, your retreat was truly a magical experience. I needed to heal, and Villa Paradise and all those involved, allowed me to heal in a safe and loving environment. You, Mitch, are amazing and the healers that you had working with us are second to none!
Monique and Nancy, you are amazing healing partners!
Thank you Mitch for the love and safe environment you have given me. This experience has changed my life forever!
With Love, Marilyn

Thanks to Mitch, Monica and all the wonderful people linked to the retreat. The things I saw, spoke about, heard, experienced, shifted and have learnt are certainly life changing. It may sound cliche, but I have returned to Australia with a greater awareness of myself, others, the world and the life I want to lead, I am 100% in the driver's seat! I have shifted many "things" that I felt held me back, but I now see these as learning opportunities and teachings to move me to where I need and want to be in this life. Every therapist/healer I met with, connected with me on some level, were completely honest, compassionate and professional, allowing me to feel comfortable to leave nothing in the tank to get maximal results. I feel alive, vibrant, energised, proud and humble all in one. The food was amazing every day, as were the facilities. No better way to start my 2018, and the rest of my life! Thanks team x

If you are reading this testimonial because you like what you’ve seen on this site so far, but need reassurance that this all really is as good as it sounds, BOOK IT NOW. Trust your instincts. I went into it thinking it would be at least interesting and give me some good stories to share back home, and if I was lucky, maybe... possibly... it might even change my life a little. If you bring an open mind (skepticism is allowed), it will deliver in all of those ways and more. The changes to your life can be as small as you want them to be, but there’s nothing small about what you will take away.
Mitch, who is an excellent facilitator, host, and human being, is doing this for the right reasons. He sincerely just wants to make it easier for people to find the healing and growth they are looking for. To that end, he has thoughtfully put together an experience like I’ve seen nowhere else, and never thought to imagine.
You will meet with healers who have compelling levels of knowledge, perception, and insight, even if it’s in areas you know little about when you arrive. Though western cultures don’t treat their expertise as mainstream, I found these healers to be credible, down to earth, compassionate, attuned to the unique needs of each guest, and able to offer practical guidance and tools for improving your life. Listen thoughtfully, and you can learn more about yourself in one week than in months or even years of therapy. Not all healers resonate equally with all guests, but the variety of healing modalities guarantees everyone will have important take-aways.
On top of the high impact sessions with the healers, you will also nurture your body through yoga, tai chi, massage, and great food, lovingly prepared by the outstanding Made and Iluh at the villa. It is a truly holistic experience.
If that weren’t enough, you’ll also learn from and about your fellow guests, as you debrief the sessions with the healers and share stories from “real life.” We had several rich discussions about our beliefs, including the belief that the unique collection of people gathered for our week together was no accident. We could hold up mirrors for each other, challenge assumptions (without challenging the person), share insights and resources, and offer encouragement and support for the journey ahead.
This retreat is by far the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.I am still integrating all the great insights I picked up while there, and will continue for who knows how long. I am still in Bali as I write this, but I’m confident that I will go home better equipped to care for myself, to navigate what life throws my way, and to set myself up for success. If any of this resonates with you, I can’t see how you would regret it!
I can’t thank you enough Mitch, Made, Iluh, Monica, Kadek, and all the healers, for this amazing experience.
Alex 12/1/2017 02:49:55 pm
My journey with the Holistic Retreat Bali was what I needed. What attracted me the most? Verities of treatments and activities very well balanced. Everyone was so kind and helpful. My suggestion is going in with an open mind and let the experience just flow. Whatever happens let it happen, you will be amazed the work you will be able to accomplish and the healing you will do. Thank you to everyone who made this experience so amazing and memorable.
Katie Stevenson 11/8/2017 07:45:53 pm
I just want to say what an incredible experience from start to finish. I was on the retreat on the 22nd October and it was really a life changing experience. Not only did I meet a bunch of ladies who I shall stay in contact with for a very long time but Mitch and the team were all wonderful and catered for every aspect.
I loved every single treatment I received, we had a range everyday - along with some fabulous days out expereincing true Balinese healing at its best.
I would highly recommend this amazing retreat to anyone who is wanting to change their lives in a more positive way & open their eyes to new ways of thinking....
Loved every minute of it!
Thanks,
Katie
Caroline 10/9/2017 06:37:03 pm
Wow, Wow, Wow, what an absolutely amazing week spent with Mitch and the team at the retreat. The Universe sent me here, and I had a totally open mind, not really knowing what to expect but embracing and enjoying every minute of it.
From arriving at the airport to leaving everything was planned and arranged for the whole week, all you need to do is relax and go with the flow, there is no pressure and plenty of time to have "ME" time, as well as soak up the chilled atmosphere and enjoy the sessions.
3 hearty, healthy meals a day prepared with love by Made and Olu, who could not do more for you, always with Big Happy Smiles and Laughs to go with it.
All the healers and therapists are extremely friendly, understanding and listen and take interest in you, and are more than happy to chat after your sessions. Mitch is something else... it takes someone very very special to facilitate a retreat, and he certainly has that, always has a story/joke to tell, and his "Man Cave" is always open for a chat at anytime.
The accommodation and the Villa itself is so peaceful, and clean, there is nothing I could find fault with, it's perfect.
I won't go into details about the sessions, visiting the healers and the Temple, because I don't want to spoil it for you, just go with an open heart and mind and you will be truly rewarded in ways you never knew possible.
One week later, I'm still revelling in the whole experience, and meeting my new friends, Adam, Lucie and Joan, the 4 of us were definately kindred spirits, brought together by the Universe and Mitch, to share an unbelievable, amazing week.
I left full of love, light and Big Smiles and a renewed spirit, thank you to all of you, you will always be in my heart and prayers.
Peace and Blessings
Adam 10/4/2017 02:16:29 pm
A life changing experience. I believe in things now that I never would have. I have filled a dark hole within that is now a strong light in my heart and my head. I felt truly happy. A gift that was shared by my fellow seekers. My friends. Mitch and his amazing team have left a legacy that is priceless. You can't afford not to do this. Just keep an open mind and you'll walk away with a full spirit and a Bali smile.
Lucie Gearing 10/4/2017 03:29:38 am
Hi all. I am beyond happy for choosing the Holistic Retreat Bali. It was meant to be!!
It's been an eye (s) opening and life changing (my job now to put things into practise) experience!!
It's been very intense and yet so relaxed. We got to see many healers, practised yoga, tai chi, morning meditations, massages and went through the cleansing ceremony at the Tampaksiring temple.
We got to eat beautiful and healthy food cooked by lovely Madie and Ilu at the villa. Villa itself was amazing. It felt like home!! If you are a private person, there is enough of space for you to chill and soak it all up. You can wonder off to the market, go to the beach or have an extra massage outside the retreat if you wish to do so.
There were four of us at the retreat: myself, Caroline, Joan and Adam. We had a lot in common and found it easy to talk to each other. It's amazing to think that we all come from different parts of the world and met at the retreat to go through "same experience" ! Friends forever :-)
I only wish now that the retreat was two weeks long :-)
Mitch is an amazing individual. His sense of humour is unbelievable (in a good way). Him and Adam were the two main entertainers at meal times :-)) ...obviously the Australian blood :-)
I am really grateful for this wonderful experience. I would do it all over again without the doubt!!
I will treasure those moments forever.
I strongly recommend this retreat for your personal growth and self discovery. Love to you all xx

Jennie 12/15/2017 02:28:55 am
I had a truly wonderful week. I felt "heavy" when I went away - you know how things in life just build up - and I felt drained. By the end of the week I felt calm, strong, healthy and well rested - although leaving was a bit of a wrench!
I loved everything about the experience - I loved being looked after and not having to think - all the (yummy) food and experiences are simply brought to you and I looked forward to every day to see what would unfold. I particularly loved the daily meditations, new yoga techniques you simply can't get down the gym in the West and meeting all the healers and practitioners was thrilling, interesting and intriguing.
You also feel "safe" in the hands of Mitch, Made and Ilu - the feeling of friendship and family is immediate. As for our group, well we had intensity, amazing conversations, a relaxed atmosphere and many many comedy moments which keep me giggling now. so if you are reading this and thinking of booking, and it feels right, that's because it is...book. Thank you for having me Mitch and Bali, I loved it x
Kerri 9/27/2017 11:47:13 pm
I went there with an open heart and an open mind and left with so much more than I ever expected. Thank you so much to Mitch for your guidance and open minded attitude and your great sense of humour which had me constantly laughing. Thank you to beautiful Maday who made the most amazing yummy healthy meals for us, to the rest of the staff and to the amazing healers. You truly have the gift of healing. And how could I forget the 4 wonderful guests who took this journey with me. Thanks for the laughs and the memories :)
Beth Leodler 9/27/2017 04:53:45 am
Mitch is not your typical "guru," but I found his "open-minded skepticism" to be exactly what I needed. He has truly found experts in their field from traditional Balinese healers to people from around the world in reiki etc. This is SO much more than the yoga retreats in the rest of Bali. If I choose to let in what I learned at this retreat, it truly will be life-changing. I couldn't recommend it all more highly!
Trev zander 9/20/2017 09:23:27 pm
This was the best experience I have ever had, it was more than what expected from the healers and all the wonderful staff, thanks Mitch
Christine 9/14/2017 06:05:35 pm
Hi Mitch,
Thank you so much for an amazing week! I wasn't in a good place when I arrived, suffering depression, anxiety and various other emotional and mental issues. As a facilitator you pulled together a well thought out schedule for each person and you gently guided us through the journey give support, advice and sometimes a shoulder or ear. Each of the sessions provided a different approach but they all complimented each other.
I came away from this retreat feeling like my old bubbly happy self, knowing I was on the right path and moving forward to a better mental state. My friends and family and work colleagues have all noticed the positive change and commented me about it.
Thanks again Mitch and the team, you were all amazing!
I would highly recommend this retreat!
Thanks
Chrissy
Christine 9/14/2017 06:09:52 pm
I forgot to mention that the food was amazing! I was so impressed with the uncomplicated way in which you and Mayday were able to cater for my various dietary requirements of gluten, dairy and egg free. Above and beyond, thank you x
Marisa 9/3/2017 04:14:30 pmHi Mitch,
I would like to thank you for a fabulous retreat experience. I came along with no preconceived expectations as to outcome and found myself fully revitalised and energised by the varied retreat activities on offer.
Your relaxed and non judgemental facilitator style made it easy to take away with me what I was open to receive and felt welcomed and appreciated throughout the "home stay" like environment of your villa facilities.
I would thoroughly recommend your retreat to anyone wanting a place to stay in Bali which truly enables contact with the healing qualities of Balinese lifestyle.
Lots of love to you all

Laura 8/28/2017 12:05:30 pm
I have worked in the "healing" world for most of my adult life. From my early 20's I have "worked" on myself...attending workshops, intensives, retreats etc. Now at the age of 54 yrs, I began hitting a cross roads. I was looking for something that could help push the "re-set" button. With all of the "knowledge" that I had acquired through years of personal development, studying and working with clients, I became discouraged about finding something that could actually help me see myself, others and the world in a new light. On July 2nd I began searching for a retreat to attend. I knew that I did not want to go to anything that involved psychological inner child work, intense yoga, or raw food cleansing etc. I wanted to reconnect with Source...the divine Power without and my Power and Beauty within. I quickly found "An Inner Voyage" and emailed the Director, Mitch. Within the first prompt response that I received, my answer was YES. Three and a half weeks later, I was on a plain flying alone Toronto, Canada to Bali (approximately 27 hours). What unfolded at the retreat is difficult to put into words...which is quite new for me:) What I can attest to, is that saying YES to attend An Inner Voyage Retreat, was the best decision that I have made for myself, to date. I accomplished my initial intention and so much more. Since returning, I am resting in a much more quiet state of reflection, presence and a renewed sense of inspiration. The Gratitude that I am in touch with now...fills my heart...THANK YOU to Mich for creating this space and bringing in such beautiful and powerful healers to work with us. For the first time, I returned with tangible and simple tools to continue and enhance my renewed state of being. If anyone out there is searching the the "RESET" in your own life...say YES and you will not be disappointed. To date, going was the best decision that I have made for myself...and it goes without saying, the best money that I have spent on myself:):)...
Heather 8/20/2017 05:36:07 am
My thanks to Mitch for having the foresight to recognise the real need for an authentic healing retreat and put together individual healing timetables for each and every one of our group. We all agreed that each type of healing was perfectly timed over our 6 days.
I particularly mention Bridget for her intuitive kinesiology sessions, and her follow through reports of the healings, which I have received since returning home. Bridget is indeed one of a kind 🦋 And has given me insight into my way forward both physically and spiritually.
Michele, so unique - thank you so much for all the indepth work you did with me, you have truly lifted and cut out negative patterns, for which I had no personal control, but have now been set free.
I am truly blessed to have connected with four other women in our group and I know we will remain close and supportive of each other in our ways forward.
Lindi 8/17/2017 05:26:02 pm
A big thank you to Mitch for my amazing experience at the retreat, everyday included same thing very special for me.The true gift that each person involved with this retreat is truly remarkable.To the girls thanks for every meals we're delicious.Mitch has really put together a great group of healers.I could go on for so much longer but .All I can say my life has been enriched and my heart is happy at long last. Lindi .
Justine 8/15/2017 01:19:02 am
A big thankyou to Mitch for my amazing experience at the retreat, everyday included something special.
For me, each healing brought forward something profound which left me speechless every time. The true gift that each person involved with this retreat has, is truly remarkable.
Made and Elu looked after us so well, nothing was ever too much trouble and every meal was absolutely delicious.
Hand on heart, I got so much out of this retreat, more than i ever thought possible. For me, it was raw and personal, but so supportive with lots of laughter to keep the spirits high. I have never felt more balanced, positive and excited to move forward.
Once again, thankyou thankyou thankyou! :) xx
Jackie 8/5/2017 05:04:53 pm
Each day of the retreat was well organised with a balance of meditation, yoga, healings and quiet time.
I left the retreat with a profound sense of deep inner peace and many skills to use back home.
Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
Kate . S 6/29/2017 12:27:04 am
When i heard about this retreat, it sounded like everything id been searching for... and it didn't fail to deliver. .. an enjoyable enlightening journey to a calmer more complete self... daily meditation, yoga and healing accompanied by dealious nourishing food nestled away in Sanur.. it was our own private oasis. . A spiritual retreat done in such a unique way..i will highly recommended to everyone.
Mandee S. 6/28/2017 10:03:30 am
When I made the decision to attend this retreat people thought I had lost my mind. The truth is I did lose my mind but I found my soul. Bali is exactly what I needed and this retreat was perfect. The healers combined with the amazing food was exactly what I needed. I would recommend this retreat to anyone who is looking to find healing and their authentic self. Mitch has created a perfect blend of healers, who really show up in such a loving way.
Catrina 7/10/2017 10:06:49 am
We all came from different backgrounds, with different stories and different reasons for being here. But we all were joined by our passion and determination to live our lives to the fullest again, to relight the flame that had faded away, and to improve ourselves and to learn. This retreat gave me more than I ever imagined. It opened my mind up to so many things. The healers were incredible and every single one of them gave me something valuable which I will never forget. They are some of the most understanding and inspiring people I have ever met, and I would come back to Bali in a heartbeat. Going to this retreat was really one of the best decisions I made. It has been 6 weeks now since the retreat and it still is very much a strong part of my every day life. Friends are seeing a positive change in me - in my actions, nutritional intake, even this retreat managed to get me out of negative addictions and got me addicted to the gym would you believe! Not only did the retreat more than exceed my expectations, but it gave me some amazing friends who I could talk to about anything, and I still chat with them and remain close with them which is amazing :) Many people may be sceptical about the idea of a retreat, and to be honest I was at first! But I promise you if you are already thinking to go it is 100% worth it. Thankyou Mitch and everyone for the life changing experience, hope to see you all again one day :)
Shaun M 6/2/2017 09:09:05 pm
So what can I say that hasn't already been said because every word of it is true. I guess my own journey was one of being completely lost with not knowing where to turn or who to turn too. All our answers are within us but with all the hustle and bustle of daily life it's often hard to gain entry to our own inner stillness to find out what's best for us and without it the darkness and negativity can easily overcome our true nature. So this is to all those beautiful souls that have or seem to of lost their way but desperately seeking the light, to all those that feel they just want to end it all because of the heaviness of life and all it contains. I promise you if you go on this journey with an open heart for change, change will come for you!
On this retreat I have seen and experienced things I never thought possible, it has honestly and truly been mind altering for me or should I say mind expanding because that is exactly what it has done for me. I havnt got the words to express my deep deep gratitude for this experience and inner voyage.
If you pray to your God, Lord, supreme soul, universal energy or whatever name you call your creator for help to relieve you from your darkness, maybe he/she has lead you here as it did me because this retreat may of just saved my life my friend. It is certainly not like me to post this on the web but if it helps guild you to your own peace then it's worth it ! I need you to know that your not alone and these amazing healers that Mitch has put together understand completely and only have your best interest at heart, they really can help you release your burdens and help your heart smile from within.
A big massive thank you to everyone of the healers but with special thanks to Graham and Michele and the beautiful caring heart of mad'e who cared and cooked for us on this journey.
None of this was possible without the amazing soul called Mitch, his one of a kind with an insight that very few people gain. A true Gent and a very funny man all the way through this experience but also serious, deep and thought provoking when you need that also.
This has changed my outlook on life and if your reading this I believe it can for you my friend!
You are not alone and the fact of the matter is ALL IS ONE !
Thanks again Mitch, it's been incredible!
Robin George 5/30/2017 10:47:55 pm
This Bali holistic retreat is truely life changing. Mitch is fantastic and really down to earth and has lots of little gems to give you along the way. We laughed we cried and some of us even screamed but I think we all walked away with an experience we will never forget.The healers are amazing and the lovely Marde looked after us like a mother hen. Thank you Mitch and all your amazing healers you are associated with. I would have no hesitation in recommending this fabulous experience.

Sue Dyck 5/31/2017 07:48:21 pm
I was both excited and apprehensive in attending the Holistic retreat in April. It was a lot of money for me and a lot of time out of my holiday. I was not disappointed. Mitch has done an excellent job of choosing an interesting group of individuals with varied gifts to spend time with. Quality, meaningful time. Each experience was unique and now very much treasured. The week was full but not too busy. Very comfortable and casual. My very favorites were Graham, who specialized in reiki and counsel and Rani treated us all royally with all her extra touches. A beautiful soul. Thank you all again and maybe our paths will cross again. Sue
Meagan 4/25/2017 07:48:06 pm
I am so thankful to Mitch for organizing what I can only describe as an incredible experience, as well as to the villa staff for taking such great care of us, the healers for their amazing gifts and abilities, and the other retreat guests for going through this with me and sharing their stories and experiences. I wasn't really sure how things would actually play out once I booked the retreat, but I'm so glad I found this and did it. Mitch has really put together a great group of people, from the healers to the villa staff and himself included, and I've gained so much knowledge and insight from this week. Truly, Mitch and all, thank you so much.
Christina 3/26/2017 03:21:42 pm
Does something keep drawing you back to Bali Holistic Retreat's website? Then follow your intuition and go. Mitch paints an accurate picture of what you'll find, and it's so much more. It was one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
You are surrounded by beautiful, genuine and authentic people - in a truly tranquil setting - as you go on a journey of discovery, and take the time to invest in yourself. Lee, Lucy, Marjolein and Rob: thank you for your friendship, warmth and humour. Mitch, thank you for your openness, care and conversation. You have created something special and unique. I hope that many more people get to experience this in the years to come.
Lee McNab 3/17/2017 11:49:36 pm
As one of the members of the March 2017 retreat I wish to extend my heartfelt thanks to Mitch for an amazinmg opportunity to be part of your retreat. The itinerary ticked all the boxes as did the personnel chosen to conduct the sessions involved. A great bunch of professionals. Marjolein, Lucy, Christina and Rob thank you for your friendship and especially to the girls your support and late night counselling sessions were greatly appreciated. A truly enlightening experience. Highly recommended. Love and laughter.

A truly incredible experience! Every day of the retreat I woke up and literally felt a big hug to my soul. Mitch, his staff and all the healers have created a safe, loving and nurturing environment where you can be on your own inner journey and know you are not alone. Everything about this retreat is genuine and balanced and there are no egos involved. Upon arriving home I thought I'd have a huge come down from the retreat, but in fact I have felt stronger, lighter, more hopeful and more energised than ever. Beautiful energies, support and friendship from Ruby, Wendy, Chantelle and Penny made my experience even more special. Mitch, a huge thank you to you and all the beautiful people in your fold. x

Chantelle ( No email )
2/20/2017 02:34:59 amWhere do I start! I looked through many options for a retreat that would tick the box for some ME time and to focus on my self development. I didn't want to go somewhere that was overly spirtitual or formal and I am so glad I came across this retreat. This was a life changing experience for me. Mitch is a wonderful host and so relatable to everyone. The Indonesian cuisine was amazing. Your every need is catered for. I felt so at home and safe and can gladly call everyone my family. I would highly recommend this to anyone who may be stuck in a rut and looking to take their own inner voyage. Thank you again to Mitch and the gang for making me feel so a thing home and giving me the experience and tools I can take home to make myself an even better me X
Penny ( penny.flere@me.com )
2/20/2017 12:27:52 amThankyou so much to yourself and all the beautiful people we worked with, Mitch! To anyone reading this, I cannot recommend this experience enough! You learn so many things about yourself and get a myriad of tools to integrate your newfound enlightenment into your life. It all happens in a beautiful, nurturing and positive environment and the villa is such a peaceful slice of heaven. I could go on for so much longer but all I'll say is that my life has been enriched, my eyes have been opened and my heart is incredibly happy and content.

I researched retreats for a while and when this one came up I knew it was the one instantly. I went in with an open mind and I wasn't disappointed. If your sitting there wondering if this might be the right Retreat ? I'd say stop overthinking it, you won't be disappointed booking this Retreat. I learnt so much and found an inner strength and clarity I didn't know I had. The food was amazing, the accomodation was great and having everything booked and taken care of for you was a huge bonus. A big thank you to all the wonderful staff and amazing healers. This was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. A big thanks to Mitch and all the work that goes into making it the wonderful experience that it was.
