“After experiencing the magic of Soulshine in person, I knew immediately it would be the perfect place to host my first Vibrant Life retreat."
I wrote my book “The Vibrant Life” to share my learnings on a variety of topics I’ve studied to improve my personal well-being, including the importance of cooking and eating the right ingredients; practicing yoga, meditation and breathwork; finding more time to spend in nature; prioritizing sleep; and understanding the importance of laughter and joy in our lives. We’ll spend time exploring all of these topics during our week together.
Sara and Michael Franti’s property in Bali is the perfect spot to unwind and focus on your own well-being for a week. Nestled into the rice fields and tropical landscape of the island, their resort is the perfect home base for exploring Ubud and its surroundings. Besides spending plenty of time enjoying the pool, gorgeous spa, live entertainment, and assortment of classes we’ll be offering throughout the week on property, you can explore the nature of Ubud and its surroundings. Outside of the field trips we’ve got planned, you can take a bike ride through the rice fields, hike the incredible volcano to watch the sunrise, river raft, or take a trip to the beach.
I can’t wait to share this beautiful, vibrant place with all of you!”
Amanda will host you for 7 nights and 8 days here at Soulshine Bali. You will also learn about Balinese culture, experience a purification ceremony, enjoy a Balinese massage and more. Hailey Lott who contributed to The Vibrant Life will be a guest host. Each morning we will start our mornings with meditation, breath work and gentle movement. All things that have supported Amanda on her journey of healing.
This week will be a transformative one, showing you that wellness is a holistic experience and that most importantly it can be fun.

ABOUT SOULSHINE
SOULSHINE BALI
WE ARE SOULSHINE, WE CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE WHERE LIFE’S ALCHEMY CAN TAKE PLACE. WHERE THE ORDINARY IS TRANSFORMED INTO THE EXTRAORDINARY.
Soulshine is a boutique sound + wellness resort, located in the tropical paradise of Bali’s cultural hub, Ubud. Rooted in barefoot luxury and Rock & Roll, at Soulshine we believe it is just as important to connect to your heart on a yoga mat, as it is to let your soul soar on the dance floor, or spend time enjoying farm to table food grown right on location.
Owners International recording artist Michael Franti and former Emergency Room Nurse turned Entrepreneur Sara Agah Franti built Soulshine around the idea of ‘the joy of wellness’. A magical and open-hearted place where one can hit life’s reset button through the practice of inward and outward expressions of joy. We are a place of creativity where there is music and artwork around every corner. We want people to feel inspired to create, to express who they truly are and to be their best self.
We are dedicated to gathering people to share in the joy of wellness, music, incredible food and most importantly good vibes. Whether your purpose of travel to Bali, is to find something or let something go, to create, to transform, to soak in the sun in the day and rock out at night, it can be found at Soulshine.
