Life Change & Wellness Retreat

7 Days | 6 Nights | Includes All Meals & Accommodations

Life Change & Wellness Bali Retreat is a powerful 7-day retreat designed to help you move beyond surface-level growth and into true, lasting freedom. Set in the peaceful beauty of Bali, this immersive experience creates intentional space to slow down, reflect, and gently dismantle the barriers that keep you stuck.

Through guided sessions, prayer, and honest, compassionate conversation, Life Change invites participants to courageously face the deeper questions of the heart—questions that lead to healing at the root and a renewed connection to your God-given identity. This is not about behavior modification, quick fixes, or easy answers, but about transformation that reaches the core.

A Proven Program with a Legacy of Transformation

Life Change was created over 20 years ago by Don and Ann Finley of Salem, Oregon, and has profoundly impacted countless lives, leading to miraculous stories of healing, freedom, and restored purpose.

For the first time, Life Change is merging with the life’s work of Chris and Shary Schauermann, who bring nearly 50 years of dedication and experience in health, wellness, and walking with God. Together, these two powerful streams come together at Joyously Raw to share wisdom, biblical principles, and practical methods for lasting transformation and freedom—renewing body, soul, and spirit through wellness by design.

What to Expect

This retreat offers a safe, supportive environment where life-giving questions are explored—questions that uncover hidden wounds, unhealthy patterns, and the internal voices that shape how we see ourselves, others, and God. Participants are gently guided toward healing, clarity, and alignment with truth, allowing real freedom and restoration to take root.

Location 

The retreat is hosted in Ubud, widely known as the cultural and spiritual heart of Bali. Ubud offers a setting of natural beauty and deep tradition that invites reflection and rest.

The local Balinese culture is carefully preserved, with a strong emphasis on daily devotion, gratitude, and a close relationship with nature. Visitors will notice daily offerings, artistic expression, and rhythms of life shaped by faith and a close-knit community. Alongside the local population, Ubud is also home to a diverse international community of spiritual seekers, creatives, and wellness practitioners, creating a unique and welcoming atmosphere. Ubud is also known as one of the centers for healing and wellness.

Situated near the heart of one of Bali’s most culturally rich areas, guests can easily experience the warmth and traditions of the local Balinese community. Ubud is widely known as one of the friendliest towns in Southeast Asia, adding to the welcoming and supportive atmosphere of the retreat experience.

This rich blend of tradition, artistry, and spiritual attentiveness fosters a slower, more intentional way of living—making Ubud an ideal environment for stepping away from distraction, creating space for stillness, and engaging in meaningful personal and spiritual renewal.

The Venue

Nestled in the heart of Ubud and surrounded by lush gardens, rice paddies, and the gentle sounds of the jungle, the Joyously Raw retreat venue offers a peaceful and grounding environment designed to support rest, reflection, and renewal. Mornings are serenaded by birdsong, while the soft rhythms of the jungle create a soothing backdrop throughout the day. The space is intentionally created to invite stillness—away from noise and distraction—while remaining closely connected to nature and Bali’s vibrant cultural life.

Thoughtfully designed accommodations, open-air shalas with inspiring views, and tranquil communal spaces create a nurturing setting for both personal restoration and meaningful connection. The venue also features a 4.9-star organic café and cold-pressed juice bar, supported by an excellent and attentive team ready to meet your needs. We are happy to accommodate a wide range of dietary preferences and can also provide a personalized juice detox upon request.

Conveniently located within walking distance of top restaurants, scenic rice paddy and nature walks, massage and spa centers, saunas, nearby gyms, supermarkets and local markets, tourist attractions, and entertainment, the venue offers both tranquility and accessibility.

The Facilitators 

About Don & Ann Finley

Don and Ann Finley were married in 1984 after meeting at Portland Bible College. Following their graduation, they joined a newly planted church in Salem, Oregon, where they have faithfully served the same community of believers for more than 40 years. Beginning as volunteers, they filled numerous roles that helped strengthen, heal, and grow the body of Christ.

In 1995, Don and Ann were appointed as the lead pastors of Life Church. During their leadership, they launched a School of Ministry called Life School, developed a transformational workshop known as Life Change, and empowered a growing prophetic community. In 2022, they stepped out of senior leadership, believing they could continue to serve Life Church in a different capacity while making space for a younger generation to lead. They were commissioned by Life Church as Prophetic and Apostolic ministers.

Ann is a Certified Prophetic Trainer with The Prophetic Company and continues to nurture and grow a prophetic community. Don has published two books—a devotional titled 40 Days Full and a highly acclaimed historical fiction novel, The Legacy. He is also involved in several entrepreneurial ventures.

Their deepest desire is to see people experience the real life that Christ came to give. They believe Jesus is the greatest adventure and the sweetest fulfillment one can ever know.

About Chris Schauermann 

Chris Schauermann, alongside his lovely wife, Shary, has been teaching health, wellness, and childbirth for nearly fifty years, serving doctors, hospitals, colleges, and churches. Together, they have personally given birth to and raised thirteen healthy children, who have gone on to produce forty-five healthy grandchildren.

Chris and Shary are co-authors of God’s Guide to Health and Longevity, a book rooted in biblical wisdom and practical guidance for living a healthy, vibrant life. Chris and Shary did not always experience this level of health, nor did they come from families with a strong foundation in wellness. Within its pages, readers journey with the Schauermann family as they search Scripture for answers to important questions such as: What foods does God recommend? Which foods does He tell us to avoid? How do you keep your children healthy when those around them are getting sick?

As Chris and Shary discovered and applied God’s instructions for wellness, they became healthy beyond their wildest dreams. The book is filled with compelling stories of individuals who moved from being sick and exhausted to living sickness-free and full of life. This may be the book you’ve been waiting for. Someone is going to live a long, sickness-free life—why not you?
