Food

Ubud is a melting pot of different cuisines from all over the world. If you are trying to stay on a plant based diet (vegan, vegetarian or pescatarian) here are some of your options:

Alchemy

Alchemy is worth the visit for their raw menu. Their vegan sushi will not disappoint in terms of flavor if you are craving for the taste of sushi. The salad bar is also a big hit as you create your own choice of veggies and dressing

 

Clear Cafe

The team at Clear Cafe combines passion for food and healthy living. Eating healthy has been elevated to provide tasty meals that intertwine enjoyment, fun and health. Their menu caters to vegan, vegetarian and pescatarian lifestyles and their motto is to offer not just good food but food that’s good for you. Positive and warm vibes permeate the premises to ensure patrons have a great time eating good and healthy food.

 

Juice Bars for Detox

Bali has become the center stage to balanced and healthy living. Many see it as the rebooting Mecca of Asia, especially Ubud. The positive vibe and tropical setting makes it ideal for detoxifying from stress and unhealthy habits. A great way to cleanse, invigorate and provide proper nourishment for the body are drinking juices made from natural sources.

 

In the Raw

If your focus is to cleanse the body from toxins and unhealthy foods, In the Raw is the place to visit in Ubud. It specializes in raw, cold pressed juices and was established and founded by Mark Baker, a pioneer in cold press juicing in the US. He brought the principle of improving health and wellbeing through juice detox to Bali. For him, it is all about what you eat and drink and a juice cleansing program actually retrains the mind and body to stay away from processed foods and toxins.

 

Juice and Shine

Juice and Shine follows a special program for detoxification, starting with an alkaline water infusion with cucumber and lemon to jumpstart the immune system, followed by seven colorful bottles of various juices with the aim of flushing out toxins, hydrating and nourishing every cell in your the body. The seven bottles are relatively small and can be paired with herbal teas. Their “green wave” made with celery, parsley, romaine, spinach, cucumber, lime and ginger and “sunrise” made with carrot, pumpkin, ginger and lime are worth trying out.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Not to Miss Activities in Bali

Bali is known for different fun and memorable activities. And the highlight of the visit to the island of the Gods is rekindling the spiritual connection to you. Balance, harmony and peace are greatly reflected by the different spiritual practices of Balinese priests and healers. Respect and honor to both light and dark are part of many ceremonies to find balance.

 

Balinese Water Purification Ceremony

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”3171″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Purification rituals are important to Balinese spiritual traditions to cleanse the body, mind, soul and spirit of impurities accumulated throughout certain periods. Melukat, or water purification ritual, at the Sebatu holy spring is a cleansing of the body, mind and soul with the goal of preventing illnesses and misfortune. This provides a deeper understanding of Balinese Hindu culture and spirituality.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”3172″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Water is an element that carries the life force with the properties of purification, rejuvenation and connection to one’s spirit. The holy spring is located close to two ancient temples: Dalem Pingit and Kusti, a 25-minute drive north of Ubud. It is considered one of the most ancient and holy places in Bali for spiritual purification. The Water Purification Ceremonies provide a mystical and spiritual experience that you don’t want to miss.

 

Connect with a Traditional Balinese Healer

[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”3176″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Balinese healers are a part of both Hindu culture and the island’s indigenous traditions. As they’ve been exposed to western philosophies and ideology, they are able to adapt and combine Eastern and Western wisdom. Ibu Jero is one healer who successfully found the middle ground and connection to both. She’s the fifth in line of Balinese healers. Her expanded knowledge and experience of her ancestry brings light to her work as a spiritual healer that flows to the physical realm.

Ibu Jero maintains the title of High Priestess with her devotion to the island’s spiritual traditions including visiting all major temples and making daily offerings.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”Not to Miss Activities in Bali Bali is known for different fun and memorable activities.

Cacao Ceremony and Healing Sound Session

Sacred Cacao is an ancient Native American ceremony used in opening the heart. The active ingredients in the cacao concoction work on opening the heart chakra that brings you to your authentic and natural state of being. It is reconnecting with Mother Earth and the cycles of life that strips you of inhibition and brings you to the state of child-like wonder, opening deeply stored emotions that are ready to be released. The ceremony consists of guided meditation and heart songs that allow you to move naturally to the beat of live, ancient sound healing.
