Returning to Your Whole and Authentic Self

Have you ever felt lost even as you keep moving forward? In the midst of busyness and life’s many demands, we often forget to pause for a moment, look within, and ask ourselves: Am I still connected to my true self?

Based on this awareness, Karuna Bali Foundation through Capung Melajah organized a training program entitled “Unlock Your Best Self: Returning to Essence,” a reflective and transformative learning space that invited participants to reconnect with themselves.

This training was held on July 18-20, 2025, at the Karuna Bali Foundation Building, attended by 8 participants from the general public. Over the course of three days, participants were guided to explore their inner selves through reflection, meditation, and connection with others. The goal was simple yet profound: to help each individual reconnect with their true essence, release emotional burdens that hold them back, and open the path to becoming their best selves.

A Safe Space to Grow and Rediscover Yourself

This training was designed as a safe space for participants to be fully present, feel, express themselves, and share without fear of judgment. Through a reflective and in-depth approach, participants learned to recognize thoughts and emotions that are often overlooked in their daily routines.

Based on the feedback provided by participants, many of them described the impact they felt with words such as “relieved, reborn, better, and a new version of myself”. They felt more aware of themselves, more able to accept their weaknesses and strengths, and even rediscovered their love for themselves. For some participants, this training also became a turning moment when they realized that true happiness begins with acceptance and love that grows from within.

A Space for Expression that Awakens New Awareness

The strength of emotional and personal involvement in the training was also evident from the feedback provided by participants. Many felt that they had found new energy, peace, and relief after participating in the process. The sense of togetherness that was built during the activity also had a special meaning for participants, as they felt seen, accepted, and heard.

One of the most memorable things for participants was the opportunity to express themselves completely, both through words and body movements. This training opened their eyes to new insights about inner dynamics that they had not been aware of before. The materials provided also helped participants understand that self-discovery is not the final destination, but rather an ongoing journey.

First Steps in a Values Based Self Development Journey

As its inaugural training program, Unlock Your Best Self: Returning to Essence became an important milestone for Capung Melajah in presenting a values-based self-development program that touches on the cognitive and emotional aspects of participants.

Capung Melajah believes that when someone is able to reconnect with their essence, they will live more consciously, lightly, and lovingly towards themselves and those around them.
