Uluwatu Empress Retreat
Join Us In Bali
The Uluwatu Empress Retreat is an invitation to return to your essence, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and embody the feminine power that lives within you. Set on a clifftop sanctuary, this immersive experience blends ancient practices with modern somatic work to support genuine transformation.
This is not about learning more. It is about feeling, integrating, and shifting what has been held in your system for too long. Through breath, movement, ritual, and collective connection, you will be supported to release old layers, restore your centre, and step into the next expression of yourself.
The Location on an Energetic Lay Line
The Uluwatu Empress Retreat is held on one of Bali’s most potent energetic points, where powerful ley lines meet and the currents of Shiva and Shakti move through the land. You can feel it as soon as you arrive. The air is different. Your system shifts without effort.
This clifftop space has a way of pulling you back into yourself. It softens what has been tense, amplifies what is true, and invites you into a depth you cannot access in everyday life. It is a place that asks something of you and gives something in return.
It is not just beautiful. It is charged. And that charge changes you.
Favourite time of our year
Join for our third womens retreat
This is our favourite time of year because Uluwatu always uplevels us, recentres us, and calls in the next version of who we are becoming. It stretches us in the ways we resist and expands us in the ways we crave, which is why we keep returning for the third year running.
Welcome to the Uluwatu Empress Retreat, a space devoted to your awakening. Created by Rachael Seymour and The Energy Studio, this work centres on expanding consciousness through Kundalini Yoga, breathwork, somatic healing, and feminine energy practices. Everything we offer is designed to reconnect you with your true self, clear the patterns that dim your power, and open the next chapter of your evolution
A Retreat that moves you
This is not an ordinary retreat. It is a transmission. Over five days you move through energetic, emotional, and somatic practices designed to dissolve fear, release outdated patterns, and reconnect you with your true self.
A Portal to Your Next Self
Depth with space to integrate
Each day is curated with a rhythm that honours your system. You experience profound inner work alongside rest, nourishment, and the spaciousness to simply be. Expansion happens through resonance, not force.

Ibu Jero Healing
During the retreat, you have the option to receive a private healing with Ibu Jero, a fifth-generation Balinese high priestess and healer known for the depth of her work. She works closely with Rachael, and together they create a powerful field for clearing and recalibration.
In her sacred space in Jimbaran Bay, Ibu Jero guides you through a traditional shamanic water cleanse blended with intuitive bodywork and energetic release. This process helps dissolve stored emotion, inherited residue, and fear-based patterns that sit beneath conscious awareness.
This is not a spa treatment. It is a rare opportunity to receive direct healing from one of Bali’s most respected elders, a profound reset that restores balance, opens the energy body, and invites you into a steadier, clearer version of yourself.
Our Core Practices
Breathwork
The breath is the bridge between body and energy, used to clear stagnation, awaken life force, and expand awareness.
Kundalini Yoga
A sacred technology combining movement, mantra, and breath to strengthen the nervous system and awaken consciousness.
Meditation
A practice of stillness and presence that trains the mind to return to truth and opens connection with higher awareness.
Energy Work
A transmission-based experience that recalibrates frequency, clears interference, and restores harmony to the energetic body.
Somatic Awareness
An embodied process that brings emotion and memory held in the body into movement, release, and integration.
Reflection and Integration
Gentle journaling and discussion sessions that anchor insight into daily awareness and lived experience.
The Power of Two Generations
Mothers and daughters often attend this retreat together, including Rachael and her own daughters. There is something remarkable that happens when two generations sit in this work side by side.
The mother line carries emotional and energetic imprinting across many generations, and when a mother and daughter choose to heal, expand, and rise together, the whole lineage feels it. Patterns soften. Connection deepens. A new kind of openness becomes possible.
If your daughter is over the age of 18, please chat to Rachael directly.
We have twin rooms available, or you can share a king suite if you prefer.
