Bali Babymoon. A Pregnancy & Hypnobirthing Retreat
RETREAT DETAILS
There is something absolutely vital about taking time out in your pregnancy to relax and enjoy one last intimate getaway with your partner before baby arrives. So often, we don’t make space for ourselves because we feel consumed by all the obligations and expectations that we, and others, place on us.
Here, you dance with your baby during a fluid, prenatal yoga class in an open-air sanctuary with views of the Indian Ocean. Your confidence and knowledge surrounding birth expands during Hypnobirthing Australia™ classes and you both release any worries, fears, or tension. You honour your baby and your pregnancy during sacred ceremonies and daily rituals.
Each retreat welcomes an intimate group of couples, in a normal pregnancy, to indulge in the oasis of Eastern Bali. Far from the bustle of tourists in Ubud and from the worries of life, here you will be able to fill your cup and drink in the deliciousness of positive vibes.
For once, let yourself be on the receiving end. Enjoy a retreat created just for you and your birth partner in a place where you can get ready to embrace all the changes that lie ahead.

The Joy Professionals
Quick to smile and easy to laugh, the Balinese are experts at living a life of joy and fulfillment. They live in the moment, neither regretting past events nor vexing on what has yet to happen.
Perhaps nowhere else on Earth lives a better example of truly living in a joyful state than in Bali. Life here is interwoven with spirituality, delight in daily rituals and appreciation for all surrounding them.
We live, work, play and grow in harmony with our local community, the people of Sukawati village. Their support and encouragement for Floating Leaf was a driving force in our development and we involve the community in deciding exactly which philanthropic efforts will be of most help and interest to them.
