Episode 6 - Bali: Into the Vortex. Conversations with Jacqueline Jai, Ole Ukena, and Nev Hyman of Nev House

“I didn’t come to Bali with a plan. I certainly didn’t imagine spending 8 weeks in the wash and rinse cycle of its vortex, being schooled. But as I overheard some guy in an Ubud café say to a new arrival, ‘When you come to Bali, chuck your plan. Bali has a plan for you.’ ”

“When did dancing together around a fire become outdated? Scorned? When did we become above it? And how’s that working out for us? For the bodies you see walking around an airport, a Western city, or rather hunched over phones or fast food? How healthy do most of those bodies feel? How connected? How alive? When, and why, did we become civil instead of communal? ”
