Reset Your Metabolism!
Release what’s weighing you down, inside and out.
This is not about crash diets or deprivation. It’s about rewiring your metabolism, balancing blood sugar, and building a healthy relationship with food and your body. Through energizing workouts, nutrient-rich meals, mindset coaching, and hormone-balancing protocols, you’ll discover how to lose weight in a sustainable, loving way.
And because true transformation requires joy as well as discipline, you’ll move beyond the villa walls to dance barefoot into Bali’s adventure. A surprise excursion, sunrise hike, and shamanic journey will remind you what it feels like to be free, alive, and fully at home in your body.

Each of our retreats offers not only deep healing experiences, but also the option to personalize your journey with advanced functional medicine lab testing. These add-ons are not required but for many participants, they are the missing puzzle pieces that explain why symptoms persist and how the body can best be supported. Whether it’s uncovering hormone imbalances, mapping your gut health, measuring biological age, assessing nutrient status, or identifying hidden environmental stressors, these labs give us precise data to guide your long-term wellness strategy. By combining retreat immersion with cutting-edge testing, you leave not just feeling renewed but equipped with clarity, direction, and a personalized blueprint for lasting transformation.
Please note: the lab add-ons include testing only. Consultations to review your results and create a personalized treatment plan are not included in the retreat package but can be scheduled once your results are back. This ensures you get one-on-one time with Dr. Marina (or your practitioner) to translate your results into actionable, customized next steps for your health journey.
