Get ‘Sacred Nap’ by a Buddhist nun at this upscale resort in Bali

Do you remember the last time when you slept like a ‘baby’? In today’s busy and noisy life, we barely get to experience that peaceful, sound, and rejuvenating goodnight’s sleep. Our mornings pass quickly, afternoons go by working on the laptops, and on most nights, we turn insomniacs. This a common thing the current generation is going through, and it’s quite evident by the fact that the super luxurious Four Seasons Resorts in Bali has come up with a super special and till-date unheard of service where a Buddhist nun rocks you to sleep!
Yes, you read that absolutely correct. Because sound sleep is one of the best ways to rejuvenate, relax and recharge, the resort has come up with this idea. This Buddhist nun at the Bali resort puts exhausted adults to sound sleep, which is considered the best medicine for relaxation. She’ll take you back to your childhood days, where your mother would sing a lullaby for you.

The surroundings and the set up

Situated in the gorgeous Sayan Valley of Bali, the resort enjoys a perfect location where one can sleep and forget all their worries for some time. Imagine being surrounded by greenery, and no sound of motor vehicles to disturb you and nature sings you a lullaby.

When it comes to the set up, it draws inspiration from a concept that is prevalent in Bali. So in Bali, mothers wrap their toddlers in a sarong and hang it at the most peaceful spot of the house where babies are rocked to sleep. The same concept applies here also.

If you book the ‘sacred sleep’ service, you’ll be first taken under a wooden roof made using bamboo. There you’ll see a pretty purple hammock hanging right at the centre. After you climb into the hammock, you’ll be transported back in time, when you were a baby and sleep was your best friend. Inside this purple silk cocoon, you’ll feel completely relaxed.

Then the nun begins her aromatherapy mask using essential oils that she puts over your eyes, which relaxes your mind, body and soul. Then begins the guided meditation, where nun asks guests to imagine themselves in the womb, where life began.

This might be one of the costliest sleeps but it’s all worth it!
