In a way, the Bali Spirit Festival can function as a great warm-up practice for Hari Raya Nyepi. It’ll be a week chock-full of soul-soothing activities—from yoga classes, song workshops, healing centers, to breathfest—that are all designed based on Balinese Hindu teachings to harmonize ourselves with our spiritual, social, and natural environment. But it’s gonna be fun, too! Especially with the lively Bhakti Night featuring the rhythms of Africa and the eclectic One World Stage Concert where artists like Xavier Rudd, Chugge Khan, and Amber Lily will make an appearance. The 10th Bali Spirit Festival will take place on March 19 – 26 in two outdoor venues (Bhanuswari Resort and Arma Museum & Resort). For more info, visit www.balispiritfestival.com.
