Spring 2023

LUXLIFE MAGAZINE | 23 Spring 2023 retreat helps families that are struggling to have a healthy dynamic but want to. Jean-Claude and his team of experts offer a wide range of choices to support each person in their journey to self-discovery and personal growth. They do this by combining psychotherapy and various forms of yoga practices, with complimenting therapies such as: integrative therapy, Atsu, deep tissue matrix healing, therapeutic face massage, Japanese acupuncture, osteopathic treatment, Rolfing structural integration, Dan Tien rejuvenation, Esalen massage and bodywork, medical qigong, tantra yoga, nutritional therapy, and full-spectrum breathing. The methods that enable Jean-Claude and his team to help so many people come from the philosophy that the health of your body also includes mental health. Often people obsess about eating healthy and exercising, while disregarding the thought patterns that they are experiencing. Our brain is wired to protect us from threats to be able to survive, hence why we often focus on the negative and we get consumed by it. This natural response, together with painful or traumatic experiences mean that fear-driven thoughts influence our decisions, directly affecting how we perceive the world and our position in it. This leads to not being able to function to the best of our abilities, making life heavy and hard to navigate alone. Some signs of this are fear, low self-esteem, anxiety, The subject of mental health is not as taboo as it used to be. Many experience the challenges of struggling with something that cannot be seen by others. The pandemic meant that, as a collective, we experienced trauma, the unexpected happened, the unknown ignited fear, and life stresses intensified due to the state of the world at the time. This saw an increase in the amount of people struggling with mental health issues, but not many know what to do to overcome the battles that are hard to explain and not easy to see. Not knowing how to process pain, sadness, anger, frustration, and many other emotions that aren’t pleasant to feel, can take a toll on one’s mental wellbeing in the long-term. JeanClaude Chalmet is aware of this and aims to support people in their journey through life. This is why he opened The Place Retreats – a healing centre where the main focuses are emotional recovery, self-discovery, and habit building for personal growth. The right atmosphere is important as it helps to create a space where those who visit feel safe and at ease. The vision for The Place was a luxurious English country style, to create a welcoming and homely space, with added details of European and Asian antiques, alongside relaxing art. As it is situated in Seminyak, the resort is completely private, surrounded by beautiful tropical trees, and there is a variety of areas to relax in, as well as three swimming pools and spa treatments to enjoy in between inner work. The Place holds space for individuals looking to heal their past, overcome fears, and become who they were born to be. This is as well as the offering of couple retreats for those who may feel that their relationship needs saving or may want to reconnect and understand each other better. In addition, the food issues, depression, and addiction. The team of experts understand and will support your journey towards improving your inner world which will have a positive impact in your outer world as a response. The Place offers long stay retreats which range between 21 to 90 days and this package is available all year around. Some of the things this include are meals prepared by a chef, guest suite with en-suite bathroom, VIP meet and greet for arrival and departure at Bali Airport, laundry and dry cleaning, and much more. Another package is the tailor-made retreats; this one is a minimum of 10 days dedicated to working directly on a specific issue.

Jean-Claude and his team are devoted to helping those that come to them, to guide them towards a better relationship with themselves and those around them.
