The Real Housewives of Dubai are embarking on one truly un-Bali-vable healing journey.

The Bravo costars attempt to cleanse themselves of their personal drama and emotional baggage during the group trip to Indonesia in E! News' exclusive sneak peek at the Aug. 6 episode.

The preview begins with Chanel Ayan, Lesa Milan, Sara Al Madani, Caroline Brooks and Taleen Marie getting drenched while trepidatiously climbing up a mountainside under a waterfall in Bali as part of a spiritual group therapy exercise.

"I feel like I'm letting go of everything I've ever been through," Brooks admits in a confessional. "My childhood trauma, all of things that hurt me."

Al Madani echoed her costar as she reflected in her own confessional, "This is exactly what I needed. Even though I've done healing, it's helping me take out any suppressed anger that I've had from a past relationship and I'm just projecting it out of my body."

As the ladies literally expel their pain by screaming under the cleansing water in the middle of the jungle, Milan gets candid about the death of her brother Gio.

"I keep myself busy, but I think that a lot of it is to suppress the grief that I'm going through," she shares in a confessional. "I lost my brother a few years ago and I decided in this moment to literally just let go."

As for Ayan—who shared last season she survived forced genital mutilation as a child growing up in Africa—the activity is extremely cathartic.

"I wanted to heal the littler inner girl in me," the model says. "Everything disappoint me, betrayals, sadness, everything. I just was getting it out of my system."

However, one cast member is noticeably absent from the bonding exercise: Caroline Stanbury, who refuses to participate and instead waits at the bottom of the waterfall after refusing to participate.

"Stanbury, to me, is always miserable," Milan suggests in a snarky confessional. "And the vibe here is so good that I'm not even focused or worried about that one."

The Real Housewives of Dubai airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
