His healing arts background is extensive, with an

emphasis on energy healing, Chi Nei Tsang, and aquatic bodywork. He owes much of this to three years spent living in India, and to the one-year residential Diploma in Advanced Yogic Studies at the Bihar School of Yoga. His background lends itself to leading workshops and retreats, and he has spent the majority of the last 10 years working for resorts and health retreats, including The Oriental Bangkok, Chivasom Thailand, The Bale, Ritz Carlton Bali, Golden Door Elysia in Australia. In 2009 he collaborated with the creator of Healing Dance, Alexander George, to develop the first aquatic bodywork training designed for spas.

My guided meditation is being featured today on Insight Timer!

Have a lie down and a listen whenever you need some restorative time...

Lying down, be guided easily into a state of deep relaxation. Practice in stressful times to be rejuvenated, in distressful times to regain peace and clarity.

Somebody over at Insight Timer really likes my guided meditations!

My “Bliss Body” yoga nidra style lying meditation is featured again today, this time as one of the favorite meditations for sleep.

Friends and students often say that my voice lulls them to sleep...
I’m going with the story that it’s because my voice is so soothing...😂

Have a listen and let me know....

Canggu friends,
This evening I’ll be leading a mindfulness session at Samadi Bali.
7pm-8:15pm

Ever since my Indian ashram days 20 years ago, mindfulness has been an anchor for me in challenging times and in joyful times.
The simple but profound invitation to be present with what we experience moment -by-moment leads to a richer life and better relationships.

Tonight we’ll explore how.

“The Gentle Power of Mindfulness”
Samadi Bali (Canggu)
7-8:15pm

“The gentlest thing in the world overcomes the hardest thing in the world.”
Tao Te Ching

Mindfulness is intrinsically a “yin” approach. The practice awakens our receptivity and openness to experience. Essentially it asks us to bring love, unconditional awareness, to the conditions in which we find ourselves. This possibility to accept even what we normally are repelled by, like discomfort or fear, provides us with a great strength to face ourselves and our predicament.
Even when are tempted to reject ourselves or another person, we can shine a light of curiosity and compassion.
This possibility brings a transformative power which we could never achieve by force.

In this session, we’ll explore how we can use mindfulness as a tool for growth and change, through acceptance and appreciation instead of force.

For friends in Bali, friends and I are leading a unique retreat in April.
We’ve combined our most inspiring and nourishing offerings in one retreat.

April 9 - 13
A journey of reflection, restoration, connection, and healing
Led by Michael Watsu & friends

In this 4-day getaway we’ll float in bliss in crystal clear ocean waters, still the mind in meditation, sing our hearts with sacred kirtan chants, free the body with gentle movement/dance and more…
All set within a remote secret Gili Island, where we can also enjoy the island’s snorkeling, hiking, kayaking and the beachfront eco resort’s spa and amazing restaurant.

Friends, my yoga nidra style guided meditation has been featured once again on Insight Timer!

Yoga nidra is one of the yoga/meditation practices that brought me back to life after years of chronic fatigue.
When I studied at the Bihar School of Yoga way back in 1999, we learned that yoga nidra (lying meditation) was basically good for treating any stress related health condition (which means pretty much everything 😉)

Have a listen when you need a meditation to rest deeply or for healing.✨

And for Bali friends who still have a CD player, I’ve got a physical CD with this track and a bonus meditation.
I’d be happy to give you a copy.

Lying down, be guided easily into a state of deep relaxation. Practice in stressful times to be rejuvenated, in distressful times to regain peace and clarity.
