1. The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work
A six-week, one-to-one course for couples who want a stronger, more resilient relationship — not by changing who they are, but by understanding how they relate.Using the Gottman Institute’s research-backed 7 Principles, we work privately and at your pace, either in person in Bali or online, to make sense of the patterns that shape your day-to-day connection.This is not therapy or counselling. It’s structured, practical relationship work — grounded in decades of research and designed to support real conversations, not diagnoses.Through guided conversation, reflection, and simple tools, you’ll learn how to communicate more clearly, navigate tension without damage, and find your way back to each other more easily when life gets busy or hard.Thoughtful, considered work that supports trust, closeness, and a steadier sense of “us” — in everyday moments, not just the good ones.

What you gain
Why It Matters
Stepping away together creates a pause. A moment to breathe. It’s in this space that you can:
Notice how far you’ve come
Simply enjoy each other’s company with nothing expected
Talk about the things that matter (without distraction)
Share laughter, tenderness, even silence
Make small but meaningful plans for the future
It’s not about grand gestures or fixing something that’s broken. It’s about giving your relationship the care it deserves, so you can return home feeling closer, lighter, and more on the same page.

Guest Reviews
“ We really appreciated the private nature of the experience: everything felt safe and just between us as a couple. Jit’s warmth made us feel very welcome, and the different activities he introduced, with various guest contributors, were both original and surprising.Through these experiences, we were able to meet each other again in new ways, whether in a creative space or in a more introspective one. It was truly enriching for our relationship, and we’re thankful for the opportunity.”

The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work
A private six-week course for couplesThis six-week, one-to-one course is for couples who want to understand how they relate — how they connect, disagree, repair, and find their way back to each other — with more ease and awareness.Grounded in the Gottman Institute’s decades of relationship research, the course offers a calm, structured space to slow things down and look at what’s really happening between you. Not to fix each other, but to understand yourselves — together.We meet weekly, privately, with time between sessions to practise, notice patterns in real life, and return with what’s true.
WHO IS THIS FOR
This course is for couples who:
Care about their relationship and want to invest in it intentionally
Feel generally “okay” but sense there’s more depth, ease, or understanding available
Are navigating recurring tensions, miscommunication, or emotional distance
Want structure and guidance without entering long-term therapy
Value privacy, discretion, and thoughtful facilitation
You don’t need to be in crisis. You just need to be willing to show up honestly.
Why Do This Work
Most couples don’t struggle because they don’t love each other.
They struggle because they don’t understand what’s happening beneath the surface.This course helps you:
● Recognise the patterns you fall into — especially under stress
● Understand how past experiences shape present reactions
● Learn how to argue without damaging trust
● Repair more quickly after disconnection
● Stay emotionally connected even when life feels busy or heavyIt’s about building a relationship that can hold real life — not one that avoids it.

✚ Less reactivity and more understanding during conflict
✚ Greater emotional closeness and appreciation
✚ Practical tools they can return to long after the course ends
✚ A shared language for navigating challenges togetherThe impact isn’t dramatic or performative — it’s felt quietly, day to day, in how you speak, listen, and reconnect.

Leadership Retreat
Clarity.
Direction.
Realignment.
Clarity doesn’t come from pushing harder — it comes from space, honesty, and the courage to listen to what’s shifting inside you.This retreat is designed for people who feel a change coming but can’t yet name it. Leaders who sense they’re entering a new chapter, but need room to understand what they want, why it matters, and how to move toward it with confidence.Across four days, you'll:
make sense of the inner signals you’ve been ignoring
reconnect with your intuition and decision-making clarity
learn how to steady your system so choices feel grounded, not reactive
explore what the next phase of life and leadership could look like
You’ll leave with direction that feels true, and the first steps to begin.This isn’t motivation.
This isn’t training.
This is clarity — for leaders ready to understand what’s changing and why.
Breathe in Bhutan
HIGHLIGHTSA cultural, yoga and nature-rich journey through the The Land of the Thunder Dragon.Bhutan isn’t a place you simply visit — it’s a place you feel. The air is crisp, the pace is unhurried, and life is measured in something more meaningful than time.

You’ll walk through forests where prayer flags catch the wind, sit quietly in monasteries with chanting monks, and hike trails that end in views that silence a crowd.It’s not a checklist. It’s a rhythm — mornings that begin with yoga or meditation, afternoons filled with culture and stories, evenings of rest in boutique lodges tucked into valleys
