You don't have to be super spiritual to appreciate the beauty of the human spirit in Bali. Bali is humble in its charm, and the opportunities to connect with local women and learn various traditional trades are abundant. Batik painting is an authentic art with Balinese roots and plenty of workshops to try your hand at it. Just like coloring as a kid (or adult) was therapeutic and relaxing, the art of Batik painting can have the same effect. Or, sign up for a ceramics class and let clay inspire you in a tropical island setting.
