A Return to Balance

wellness

Guided by the yogic philosophy of Right Living, Yama invites a slower rhythm — one that honors presence, simplicity, and care.

Our wellness rituals are designed to restore balance through contrast and stillness: heat and cold, movement and rest, water and silence.

Each experience becomes an invitation to listen — to your breath, to your body, to what feels quietly alive beneath the surface. It’s not about doing more, but about feeling more. A gentle return to your own natural rhythm, again and again.

Yoga

At Yama, yoga is not just movement, it’s a return to presence.

Our shala, rests at the heart of Yama. Each class unfolds with the sunrise and closes with silence, allowing the body to awaken and the mind to soften. Guided by local and international teachers, our daily sessions blend stillness, awareness, and flow — a way to come home to your breath, and to yourself.

Meditation

Meditation at Yama is a return to stillness.

Guided or self-led, each session invites a gentle slowing down, creating space to observe, release, and reconnect. In the quiet rhythm of breath and presence, clarity emerges naturally, without effort.

Breathwork

Breathwork at Yama is an invitation to explore the body’s own intelligence.

Through conscious breathing techniques, energy begins to move, emotions soften, and the nervous system recalibrates. What feels held or unspoken can gently surface, creating space for release, clarity, and renewal.

Sauna

A space to awaken the senses and release what feels heavy.

Inside the wooden warmth, heat becomes medicine — a slow, purifying ritual that grounds the body and clears the mind. As the breath deepens, tension dissolves and calm rises. This is a quiet practice of presence, where warmth softens what feels tense and stillness follows every exhale.

Ice bath

Ice Bath at Yama is an invitation to meet intensity with presence.

Immersed in cold water, the body awakens instantly, breath sharpens, and the mind clears. In surrendering to the sensation rather than resisting it, resilience grows, focus deepens, and a steady calm begins to take root.

Riverside Spa

Riverside Spa Massages at Yama offer a deeply grounding experience shaped by sound and touch.

Set beside the flowing water, each treatment is guided by skilled hands and the steady rhythm of the river. Natural oils, intuitive techniques, and the surrounding stillness invite the body to soften, release tension, and return to balance.

Paddle board

Paddle boarding on the Balian River is an immersion into stillness.

As you glide through its calm waters, the jungle leans in, the sounds soften, and the river reveals its slow, steady pulse. It’s a gentle journey inland. Peaceful, grounding, and guided by the quiet spirit of Balian.

Surf

Surf in Balian is both movement and meditation.

Long, rolling waves break over volcanic sand, offering space to ride, fall, and begin again. Whether experienced or new to the board, the ocean invites presence, patience, and a quiet dialogue with something larger than yourself.
