A pause isn’t a break from life; it’s a way of returning to it. When we stop moving long enough to feel ourselves again, something shifts. The breath deepens. The mind unclenches. The body remembers its own quiet intelligence. In that small opening, your choices become clearer, your pace becomes truer, and the world meets you with a little more softness.

UNFOLD was created for this kind of recalibration.

A week in the mountains of Bali to step out of the rush and back into rhythm—your rhythm. Slow mornings, nourishing movement, communal rest, and the kind of stillness that helps you hear what you’ve been carrying beneath the noise.

If your system has been whispering for space, for breath, for a gentler way of being… consider this your invitation to pause with us.

Unfold Retreat • May 10–17, 2026 • Mount Batukaru, Bali

A soft landing. A remembering. A return.

12/19/2025

There comes a point when pushing through stops working. When the body’s quiet pleas for ease get harder to ignore. When the pace of life feels just a little too tight for who you’re becoming.

UNFOLD was created for that moment.

For the person who senses they need a different kind of space—one that invites breath back into the places that have been holding, one that softens the edges from the inside out. This isn’t about achieving more. It’s about remembering how to be with yourself in a way that feels honest and unhurried.

For seven nights in the mountains of Bali, we’ll explore that softer rhythm together. Slow morning practices, nourishing meals, inquiry woven with rest, sunset movement, silence, stargazing… space that actually feels like space.
No rushing. No performing. Just an invitation to meet your life with more presence and less bracing.

Our home for the week is Batukaru Coffee Estate, tucked into the lush slopes of Mount Batukaru—sacred land, jungle air, birdsong, and the kind of stillness that helps you hear your own inner voice again.

UNFOLD is a week to step out of the noise and back into yourself. Not to achieve, not to perfect, not to collect moments for anyone else — but to soften, breathe, and remember what it feels like to be held by slower time.

Together, we’ll create an analog space that asks nothing of you except presence. A place where the mind can quiet, the heart can open, and the spirit can rest. A space to move gently, listen deeply, and feel the steadiness that rises when you stop bracing against life.

If you’ve been longing for pause… this is your doorway back to what nourishes you.

“Sometimes the most radical thing we can do is choose to slow down long enough to hear our own life again.”

A week held in the lush mountains of Bali, created for those craving rest, softening, and the simple truth of being human without hurry. Seven nights to rediscover inner rhythms, communal ease, and the kind of quiet that clears space for something new.

If your body has been whispering for pause… this is your invitation to listen.

Wow!

❄️ Ice flowers field in Norway — an incredibly rare winter phenomenon.

These crystal formations bloom only when freezing mist meets ultra-cold surfaces, creating fragile, flower-like clusters that last just minutes in the right conditions. A fleeting glimpse of nature’s cold-weather artistry.

You are the vessel.

The bridge between vibration and silence, sound and soul.

In the rhythm of these five days, you’ll remember what your body already knows how to listen deeply, how to hold with presence, how to return to yourself.

This is not about learning more. It’s about remembering the wisdom that was never lost.

Join us in Bali, where sound becomes ceremony and stillness becomes your teacher.

Some teachings are not learned—they’re remembered.

The Sound & Yin Immersion in Bali is one of those rare experiences that invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and remember the language of your own body. Through vibration, stillness, and presence, you’ll reconnect with the wisdom that lives beneath thought, the kind that can only be felt.

Guided by Eduardo Ballesteros & I, this 50-hour training weaves sound healing, yin yoga, and somatic practice into a journey of personal and professional transformation.

This isn’t about adding more to your life.
It’s about softening into what’s already within you.

Enroll through the link in my bio. We’d love to have you there.

Hey friends, Gia here.

Brenda and I created The You Project because we both saw something missing in the healing world...spaces that bring together the best of both East and West.

Brenda works with the nervous system and Western psychology in a way that makes healing feel grounded and real. My background is rooted in Eastern wisdom...movement, breath, energy, presence. Together, we bridge those worlds so transformation can happen in both the mind and the body.

If you’ve been craving something deeper than talk, but more grounded than spiritual bypassing… this might be your place.

Feel free to reach out to us for more information. You may also visit the links in our bio to learn more about The You Project: Austin.

What if five days could change the way you listen—to yourself, to others, to the world?

In Bali this December, we’ll gather for a Sound & Yin Immersion unlike any other. It’s not about performance or perfection, it’s about attunement. About learning to move from stillness, to guide from presence, to create from the inside out.

Each day unfolds as a dialogue between vibration and silence, movement and rest. You’ll practice, listen, release, and reimagine what it means to truly hold space for yourself and for those you serve.

If your intuition has been whispering that it’s time to deepen your work, this is your invitation.
