My Trip to Bali 🌸 Announcing FullyRaw Retreats 2025 + What I Ate Vlog, Animal Rescue & Vegan Meetups

Hi my friends, Christina here and I am so happy to be joining you today from beautiful Bali. I've been here for a few weeks now planning my upcoming 2025 Fully Raw Retreat and I've had the most incredible and magical time being back here. It has been unbelievably special, filled with community, incredible raw vegan food, nature, healing and so much more. I am elated to share with you that I will be hosting a Fully Raw Retreat here at the 5 Elements Bali in 2025 and we have been working to make this the best experience of your life. I flew here not only to plan this upcoming retreat but to meet with the 5 Elements team to make sure that we put together the most unbelievable itinerary and healing experience for you. It won't just be a raw food retreat, it will be a complete wellness experience with physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. While I have not launched the official sign-ups for this retreat, I do have a waiting list for those of you who are interested to be added. Simply email and let us know that you'd like to be added to the waitlist for this retreat when sign-ups launch so that you can get a personal email from me letting you know when, where, all the details, and more. I've included that link and the email in the description below for you so you can email us and when the time is right you can hopefully sign up and join us. In the time that I've been here, I have experienced so many special surprise moments and I can't wait to share all of them with you. So without further ado, I have a very fun Bali vlog that I'd like to share with you that includes not only a little taste of what you will get to experience if you attend one of my Fully Raw retreats but also some of the fun that I've been having here in Bali as well. I am so happy to be hosting and working with 5 Elements to host my upcoming 2025 retreat. It's such an incredibly special place. Not only is it a healing and wellness resort, but it's what I call the epitome and essence of natural luxury. The entire resort is sustainably built from natural materials such as bamboo and real stone, is thoughtfully created with nature, and did I mention it's a completely plant-based resort with its own garden and spa? My words simply cannot do it justice. It's a place that evokes every emotion. It's a safe haven with all types of nourishment. I hope you get to experience it with me. The priest at the resort did a fire blessing for me. It was one of the most memorable experiences I've had in Bali. Not only did we bless our past fears, but also we welcomed the beautiful retreat group I will be bringing and our experiences to come. Something else that happened this week is I rescued a dog who had been hit and left on the side of the road. I couldn't look away. About 15 meters nearby, another dog had also just been hit and struck dead. The other dog lay mangled on the side of the street. It was a horrible thing to witness and I will never get that image out of my head. I pulled over and jumped out to first see if this dog was still alive. He was curled up just as you see here, unable to move for a while. His leg was clearly broken. I reached out to Little Steps Matter and they came immediately to help me get him off the road and to help me get him into a crate so that I could rush him to the vet. Without their help, I wouldn't have been able to get him to the vet. He was so traumatized and scared. I named him Bear because he looks like a cuddly bear and I soon discovered he is absolutely the sweetest soul. I took him to Sunset Vet and they were incredible. They cared for him for over three days, helping him to recover just enough for me to come back and pick him up. I'm so grateful for their compassion and love for animals. After this, the most magical series of events happened. Not only did I meet the sweetest Ira at a raw vegan meetup who offered to foster him back to health in the time window needed, but also Rescue Dog Ballet Squad is willing to allow Bear to live the rest of his elderly life at their sanctuary. Bear is not only in the best of care, but also he has a beautiful, safe, nourished, and loving future ahead of him. I'm eternally grateful for everyone who made it possible for me to rescue this dog on the side of the road. I share this in hopes of showing you what's possible, that one small act of kindness can save a life. If more people would show compassion with a touch of action, what a different world this would be. I absolutely love animals and my hope is that one day every single living being will be loved, respected, and cherished. In the midst of planning my retreat with Five Elements, I made sure to include my daily workouts and proper nutrition. Surprisingly, two different raw vegan meetups were happening in Bali while I was there, and it was wonderful to connect with other like-minded souls who love eating raw and vegan and who love eating fruit. I even got to see Dr. Graham. It's been years since I've seen him, so it was a wonderful synchronicity to be able to give him a hug. Please welcome Dr. Graham! Guys, tell us, this morning you went and you found these, right? You basically went and found them. So me and Ben got up a little early, drove a couple hours. Hi Ben. Hi! We went up the mountains and we found the bounty. I enjoyed durian and fruit parties galore. It was amazing. On top of that, Bali has the best raw vegan food and cuisine. Every meal and every bite is an experience you cherish. I won't give away too much for now, but I'll just say it's the kind of healthy food you dream of. These are all just little tastes of what I will be sharing and offering at my upcoming Fully Raw Retreat in Bali. I hope to have you join me. Welcome back! I'm so happy to be here! Best raw food restaurant in the world, peace of life right here. Oh, I'm so happy. We are so happy to welcome you to the Fully Raw Retreat at Five Elements, and we hope to see you there.
