Most people travel to Bali with the intention of healing. Whether it’s for the mind, body, soul or a combination of these three, the island seems to have a magnetic pull that attracts people who seek healing.
For those who are unaware, there are plenty of healing practices found in Bali. From meditation to traditional medicine, there is a broad selection of what the island has to offer. If you seem to be at a loss on where to begin, here are three ways on how to get started on your Bali healing journey.
Start with some self-reflection
Looking within is one of the foundations to begin healing. It may sound simple, but sometimes, it does get difficult to quiet and discipline the mind. There are plenty of distractions around and it can be challenging to turn down the noise and listen to your inner voice.
However, the thoughts, emotions and voice within are the windows that help in understanding the needs we might have. Having some quiet time with nothing but thoughts can help with your reflection, and can lead you to some clarity of some things you want to address within.
Bali is a haven for healing for the tranquility it provides. The lush greens, tropic views, cultural foundations, and positive spiritual vibrations offer the perfect space for self-reflection.
Practice Kindness
The inner voice is not always kind. Therefore, it can be overwhelming to actively become more aware of thoughts and emotions happening within. Some thought patterns can get loud and can be critical at times.
It is important to be kind to yourself, first and foremost. Understand that everyone goes through different things and some negative thoughts and emotions can be rooted from something much deeper that needs to be addressed. Know that this awareness is the process of healing.
This is why it is important to find people who know how to guide you through your healing journey. There are plenty of resources you can find in Bali. There are places and people that offer consultation so you know exactly what you need to address.
Again, the important thing is to be kind to yourself. Giving yourself the grace and humility to acknowledge your humanity will help you become a kind person to others as well.
Seek help
Whether it's through self-reading or finding an expert that you can consult with, there are plenty of resources for you to turn to when you are ready. Starting your healing journey in Bali can be beneficial as there are different ways you can address some issues. Whether its healing the inner child or looking through your past life, there’s a path of healing specific to your needs.
