The Melukat ceremony is one of Bali's most profound spiritual practices — a water purification ritual believed to cleanse body, mind and spirit. Led by a local Balinese priest right at Poinciana, participants are guided through prayers and blessed with holy water in a gentle, deeply moving ceremony. A powerful opening or closing ritual for any retreat.

Begin your retreat with a traditional Balinese welcome ceremony on our beach. Led by a local Balinese priest, this gentle, heartfelt blessing sets a sacred intention for the days ahead and helps your group arrive not just physically, but energetically. A beautiful way to honor the beginning of your journey together.

Visit the 15th-century Ponjok Batu temple perched dramatically on the northern coastline. This sacred sea temple is dedicated to protecting fishermen and travelers. Your group will participate in a traditional blessing ceremony led by a Balinese priest, who will guide you through prayers and rituals while offering insights into Balinese spiritual practices.

This immersive experience combines the art of creating traditional Balinese offerings (Canang Sari) with a sacred temple blessing. First, learn to craft beautiful offerings using flowers, leaves, and incense under the guidance of local experts. Then, bring your handmade offerings to the Ponjok Batu temple for a meaningful blessing ceremony with a Balinese priest.

Create a powerful group experience with this evening gathering on the beachfront lawn. A beautifully prepared bonfire is set within a handcrafted flower mandala made from fresh tropical blooms. The sound of waves and flickering flames create a magical backdrop for sharing, fire rituals, dancing, or closing ceremonies - one of the most popular activities among retreat leaders.

Enhance your workshop space with a stunning flower mandala created by our Poinciana team. Using vibrant tropical flowers and leaves, these intricate designs transform your teaching space and set a beautiful intention for the day's program - whether it's yoga, breathwork, meditation, dance or any other practice. Also perfect for ceremonies, special gatherings, or as a focal point for group rituals.
