Why Small, Intimate Retreats Create Deeper Healing

We’ve all seen the big retreats—huge groups, massive shalas, tight schedules, and facilitators with headset mics like they're hosting a wellness version of Coachella.

But here’s the thing: healing is intimate work.
You can’t rush it. You can’t mass-produce it.
And you definitely can’t hold it in a crowd of 50 where no one remembers your name.

At Jax, we believe the deepest healing happens in small, intentional groups—where you’re not just a participant, but part of a deeply-held container of transformation. Whether you’re joining us for a kundalini retreat in Bali or one of our Kundalini energy activation sessions around the world, our focus remains the same:

Real connection. Real safety. Real healing.

Healing Needs Safety—and Safety Requires Space

When you're doing deep work—trauma release, grief integration, nervous system repair—the last thing your body needs is a room full of strangers and a rushed schedule.

Smaller retreats allow for:

  • Deep trust and connection to build within the group

  • Facilitators to track and support each individual’s process

  • A regulated container where the nervous system can soften into safety

Trauma doesn’t heal through intensity. It heals through attunement—and that’s nearly impossible in a crowd.

Every retreat at Jax is application-only. Why? Because we hold energetic integrity like it’s gold (because it is). We don’t just let anyone in. We carefully craft each container to ensure every participant is held with care, and every facilitator is trauma-informed and seasoned in this work.

Whether it’s your first time exploring energy healing therapy or you're already deep in your journey, this kind of attuned space is where emotional and spiritual healing can finally take root.

The Power of Being Truly Held

At a Jax retreat, you’re not just another face in a sea of yoga mats. You’re met as a whole person.

We blend modalities that speak to both the body and the energy field, including:

  • Kundalini energy activation

  • Somatic release and movement therapy

  • Breathwork and bodywork

  • Spiritual healing techniques and ritual

  • And most importantly, trauma-informed support woven through it all

This isn’t just a wellness retreat in Bali. It’s a carefully held experience where your grief, your truth, your rage, and your joy are all welcome.

And no, we’re not here to awaken you. That’s not the point. You’re already whole. We’re simply supporting your return to yourself—through embodied practices, nervous system regulation, and trauma-informed care. Kundalini energy is one of the many pathways we use to help shift stagnant patterns and support integration.

We work with people navigating healing from grief, chronic dysregulation, burnout, heartbreak, and life transitions. No forced vulnerability. No guru complex. Just real humans doing real healing, together.

A Global Network of Trauma-Informed Healing

Our intimate retreat model doesn’t mean you only get support while you’re in Bali. The Jax community is expansive—and growing.

We’ve trained facilitators across the globe in our trauma-informed approach to Kundalini activation, energy healing techniques, and somatic work. Whether you join us online or in person, you’re stepping into a field of healing held by practitioners who get it.

This means:

  • Continued support after your retreat

  • Access to integration calls and online sessions

  • A community that doesn't end when you go home

So even when you leave our Bali retreat centre, you're not left trying to figure it out on your own. Your healing process is held. Ongoing. Evolving.

Why We’ll Always Keep It Small

Because healing isn’t linear. It’s intimate. Messy. Sacred. It needs the kind of space where you're safe to unravel and rebuild.

At Jax, our small group sizes allow for real connection—not only with our facilitators, but with yourself. We don’t promise quick fixes or instant breakthroughs. What we offer is something far more meaningful:

🌀 A space to feel again
🌀 A chance to unwind what’s been held for too long
🌀 And a method that honours the body, the energy, and the pace of your healing
