Hmm. That's actually a tough question. I guess I would love to take lessons from a raw chef. Like you. :D I'd love to learn first hand how to make living foods enjoyable, pretty, and delicious.
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn how to do proper strength training or yoga. Whenever I look to online videos, workout videos or friends for posture I feel like I'm doing it wrong. I would like to learn how to do the exercises right so I'm actually benefitting my body, and not hurting it!
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn how to properly strength train or practice yoga. I always feel like I slip out of position and it would be nice to learn how to be aware of when I do this!
ReplyDeletei tweeted at you!
ReplyDeletei would like a lesson from a professional cast member of cirque du soleil. or from a chef in a raw vegan restaurant. or a day with a yoga master.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to copy Audrey here. A kitchen demo from a raw chef would be amazing.
ReplyDeleteBut to be original--I'd also love an intro to Chinese Medicine. I would *love* to learn how to "read" my tongue and know which herbs to take.
I would love to learn meditation. Something about letting your body relax and focusing on breathing sounds empowering to me.
ReplyDeleteI would love a snowboarding lesson from an expert. I used to snowboard all the time but haven't made it out in awhile and would love to have a lesson.

ReplyDeleteI posted to facebook! http://www.facebook.com/cookingforaveganlover
ReplyDeleteOh that is tough! So many things I've to learn from a professional. Glassblowing! Glass fusing! Silver smithing! Snowboarding! Photo manipulation! And, of course, raw food prep! And installing flooring! Oh how I could go on.... :-)
ReplyDeleteAck! There are so many lessons I want to take! Kickboxing, Piano, Nurtition....the list goes on.
ReplyDeleteI think I would really benefit from some vegan/raw cooking lessons though. I used to feel very confident in the kitchen, but now that I've decided to be vegan, it's a little more daunting.
Yoga or tai chi
ReplyDeleteI would also like to take lessons from a raw chef! I am in culinary school, but raw foods are where I REALLY want to learn!
ReplyDeletexo
K
Yoga, definitely. I'm really getting into it, and I think it would be great.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a lesson in how to cook with sea greens and green leafy vegetables. I'm really trying to get more calcium and minerals from greens, but I'm pretty clueless as to how to prepare them!
ReplyDeletefacebooked!
ReplyDeletetweeted /appifanie
ReplyDeleteGiven the timing of your question, I'd actually like to get a lesson from a naturopath on how to better solve potential dietary deficiencies when you already feel like you're doing everything right!
ReplyDeleteI would love a lesson in household organization. Every time I think I have everything organized it only lasts for a week or so! I must be missing out on some secret that only organizational gurus have the answer to...
ReplyDeleteI would take Yoga lessons because there is so much to be learned from a yoga teacher not only about asana but also about life and abundant love.
ReplyDeleteI would love a yoga lesson that focuses on poses that support detox and cleansing.
ReplyDeleteAwesome give-away!
i think i'd like
ReplyDelete1) lessons from a chef - or
2) a nice set of singing lesssons.
i can cook and i can sing - but neither the way i want to.
thanks for the contest - i'm a lurker who has really enjoyed reading your blog, and who has been inspired to have more green in her life :)
Making deserts
ReplyDeleteI'm a graduate student who is low on funds/addicted to junk food. I would love a lesson on how to transition to a raw/vegan diet that isn't prohibitively expensive!
ReplyDeleteHow to pick just one? Lately I have been getting injured a lot from my exercise program and I wish I could afford a personal trainer, or I would like to become one. I would love to know what is right and what is wrong and exactly how to nurse an injury and to be able to identify what type of injury it is.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to learn raw desserts, like cheesecakes, from an expert. I love to eat them so much, but have yet to make them myself. Great question!
ReplyDeleteI would have to say cleansing, actually!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to give my bod a good spring cleaning, but want to do it safely and effectively!
I'd like to know how to pull it off without feeling drained so I can still go to class/work and do what I need to do.
I would like a lesson from an expert in 2 things cooking and yoga would be super cool :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn how to grow my own food and grow a permaculture garden/forest. That is my dream in life! By growing my own food, I would be helping my body and nature at the same time ;-)
ReplyDeletei love to run, it wud b fun to work with an expert& get efficient.
ReplyDeleteA raw food prep class, for sure! I'm trying my best to eat raw 75% percent of the time and already feeling better. The recipes you put together are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI would love lessons on strength training because that is the health area I struggle with the most.
ReplyDeleteI actually was on the Garden of Life website looking around at products I wanted to try, thought I had seen them on your blog before so clicked over to check and saw the giveaway, crazy huh?
I would love to have a cooking lesson from a raw chef. I think it would be so much fun to collaborate!
ReplyDeleteI would love to take a healthy cooking class. I enjoy cooking but haven't mastered the art of winging it in the kitchen just yet.
ReplyDeletethis is a hard question! My mind went immediately to sports, but that is probably because I participate in quite a few.
ReplyDeleteI would have to say a lesson in photography - mainly with my digital SLR. I have been trying to learn on my own, so having a little lesson would certainly help :)
I always wanted to learn how to dance the salsa!
ReplyDeletePosted link both Twitter & Facebook!
ReplyDeleteI like Audrey's comment, that is a good question. I love to cook and preparing raw is a new thing for us. This would be something I could truly use.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
There's a lot of lessons I'd like to take. I am currently taking voice lessons. I would like to take lessons on mural painting from someone who does it professionally. I would also like to take lessons on eating The Maker's Diet from Jordan Rubin, or lessons from a Raw chef, at least. I would also like to take lessons on vegetable and herb gardening, as well as how to make my own essential oils. After this year, well, I'd like to take guitar lessons. I would also like to take hip-hop dance lessons. And the list goes on...
ReplyDeleteI tweeted the link to this blog! :)
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to learn how to rock climb and snow board... I think I'd probably want an expert to teach me!
ReplyDeleteThat is a tough question, as there's so many options and so many things that I would love more information on! I think I'd like to spend time with an expert in meditation. A meditation practice can lead to so many great benefits in all other areas of life. I think I could really benefit from the centering and calmness that mediation can bring. I know it shouldn't be that hard to learn to meditate, but with my personality I sometimes get frozen when I don't have concrete guidance and someone to ask questions of.
ReplyDeleteDang, Audrey posted exactly what I was going to post! So I will second the lesson with a raw chef and add that I would love to take a lesson from a professional yogi on the level of Iyengar or Rodney Yee.
ReplyDeleteI would like to take lessons from an expert in cooking. I feel like I'm an okay okay, but I'd love to be even better!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to take private meditation lessons from an expert!
ReplyDeleteI am a great cook....how do i become a great raw chef? A class or two would be great.
ReplyDeleteAnd I just posted on my Twitter account, stellarpath. :)
ReplyDeleteI would like a lesson on food combining.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say I'd love an expert lesson on something exercise-related -- like pilates! I think better know-how would help me make the most out of it.
ReplyDeleteExciting giveaway :)
I would like to take lessons from someone who has been through a hysterectomy & is living successfully; feeling energetic, sleeping well, eating nutritious foods & living life to the fullest. I take the Raw vitamins & seem to be struggling in many of these areas :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love to have some yoga lessons from a true expert. I've been to classes at my local gym, but they always seem to fall short of what I hope to get out of it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome question. I think I would like to learn from a professinal voice teacher...I love singing so much.
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing the giveaway. This sounds so perfect! I'm doing a cleanse right now, so it's be fun to add that to my regime!
Hmmmmmmm, there are tons of things I would like to take lessons for...usually it's not in my budget.
ReplyDeleteRight now I would say skiing, since i live in Colorado and have tons of skiing opportunities and just kinda learned it by doing. so it would be nice to learn better techniques and stuff.
I've always wanted to take surfing lessons, it looks like an awesome full body workout!
ReplyDeleteI honestly have to say I'd love to take a class from a raw food chef. I'm still kind of fumbling through a lot of raw foods and I'd love to learn some new hands on tricks!
ReplyDeleteI posted your giveaway on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/theresa.team?ref=nf
ReplyDeleteAs I have been struggling with maintaining raw for myself and my family for over a year, I feel I would greatly benefit from raw/live cooking lessons that focus on BUDGET. As I have 5 mouths to prepare for and their appetites are scary, I'd like instruction on which recipes would be most nutritious and would stretch on a small budget. :)
ReplyDeleteHi, before I answer your question, I have to say I've been reading your blog and I'm really enjoying it. I'm not even vegan, but I'm trying to incorporate more raw food into my diet and the diet of kids and husband. I have to say that your plans for childbirth are inspirational. I've had two natural births and they were both amazing. I really wish you the best. As for your question... I'd really like to learn about herbal medicine.
ReplyDeletegreat giveaway!
ReplyDeletei'd like knitting lessons. i'd also like to meet a shaman or medicine woman.=)
Because I love cooking, I would love a lesson from a vegan chef. A personal one-on-one tutorial from Tal Ronnen would be amazing.
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn from an expert gardener.
ReplyDeleteI'm a yogini, so I've naturally always wanted to try the Pilates machines with an expert Pilates instructor!
ReplyDeleteeither gymnastics or a hair stylist
ReplyDeleteI'd love to learn first hand how to make living foods enjoyable and delicious so my kids would love to eat it more.
ReplyDeleteI would like to learn swimming from an expert so I can have the best form possible when swimming.
ReplyDeleteThe first thing that came to mind for me is "meditation". I would love to have an expert instruct me how to meditate properly and efficiently -- especially Dr. Deepak Chopra. That would be fantastic. And it would be so great for my entire system. Thanks Kristin for all you do. Pam
ReplyDeleteRight now it would be a cross between a chef/kitchen extrodanaire (how to cook healthier meals my kids and hubby will eat too) or square foot gardening expert mel barthalomew, since that's what I'm interested in at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many lessons in life to learn and so many wonderful masters...hard question :-) I think though that if I had one opportunity, it would be to spend the day with a yoga master and learn more about inner peace and enlightenment.
ReplyDeleteRaw food "cooking"! I have no idea what to do with a VitaMix, but I see all of these wonderful things other people make. I'd like to be able to do that.
ReplyDeleteI think I would most like to do "a day in the life of" with a raw food chef or guru (such as yourself.) Or even a week;)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to take a lessons on how to build guitar pedals--it'd be great to custom make my own unique pedal and have a completely personal sound, rather than adjusting someone else's creation to fit what I'm looking for.

ReplyDeleteHello, first time post. I decided to sign up for the give away, because I am planing my first fast/cleanse this spring. I decided to do it after reading The Seasonal Detox Diet by Carrie L'Esperance.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question; I would like to learn how to meditate from an expert. Thanks.
this might sound a little strange, but I would love to work with a yogi or someone on meditation
ReplyDeleteI'd love training from an expert on yoga :) I love yoga, but I know I don't do it correctly. Hah :)

ReplyDeleteI tweeted it @ambre701
ReplyDeleteBUT I couldn't find your twitter name to link to it :(
I really, really, really need a knife skills class. My husband literally winces whenever I get out a chopping board, as he's convinced I'm going to take off a finger one of these days.
ReplyDeleteI'm a marathon runner, and I would LOVE a session with a real running coach who could assess my form and give me tips for improving it, as well as let me pick their brain about training strategies and injury prevention.
ReplyDeleteI would like a lesson from a raw foods expert. I love the concept and creativity, but could use a few lessons on creating solid, delicious raw dishes. I think i'd also really love a lesson from a yoga expert to enhance the instruction i've already had.
ReplyDeleteI would like a first-hand lesson from someone who personifies "Love". Think of how many problems could be avoided if one could perfectly feel and display love. And of course I could then teach others what I had learned and create a reverse pyramid scheme of love and good deeds. :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love a lesson in graphic design from an expert. I've taught myself everything I know and it would be so nice to sit back, relax, and have someone give me some helpful tips and insights in design!
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn how to make a variety of different smoothies! I love them and so do my 4 kiddos, but I have yet to get it right!
ReplyDeleteI would like a lesson in compassion and enlightenment from a real expert.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a lesson from a dentist who specializes in amalgam filling removal...a lesson how to properly detox after.
I don't tweet or facebook, but I do blog, and I linked your contest back to my blog letting any of my readers know about your giveaway. I hope this can count as another chance to win! If not that's okay! Thanks for doing this, Kristen! :D
ReplyDeleteI'd love to get a personal vegan cooking lesson from a vegan master! Oh yeah! That would be wonderful! If they were to stay a week or two and teach me all about healthy delicious creative compassionate food prep... Awesome! Someday perhaps... :D
ReplyDeleteHey, I guess that would be you, huh?! I was describing YOU--the vegan master chef to teach me all things food! Well now, don't I feel silly! :D
ReplyDeleteIt's been great to talk to you, Kristen! You take care! :)
I want to know about supplements!! You know, about vitamins and minerals and probiotics-that kind of stuff. I'm horrible at figuring out why Yerba Mate and Maca and Cholera are good for you, etc. And when you should take B vitamins and Iron supplements, etc.
ReplyDeleteSo a good lesson on that stuff would be great!
I would love to have a one-on-one session with a normal person who lives the raw lifestyle- such as yourself! I don't know anyone in real life who is raw so it would be nice to see how someone handles everyday challenges (like eating out or on the run) - although I do think you do a great job at this :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a class from a yoga guru, who also runs, and follows a raw food lifestyle...and learn how they balance it all with being an incredible mommy! :)
ReplyDeleteI would love a session with a raw chef or professional photographer.
ReplyDeleteThat's an easy question! I would like an expert lesson from none other than YOU!! Just so I can learn all your raw tricks and secrets :)

ReplyDeleteLove your blog Kristen and would really enjoy trying the detox.

Awesome giveaway Kristen! I was actually looking at the Raw Cleanse at Vitacost just today : ) I would love a lesson in either yoga and/or with a personal trainer at the gym. I workout at home everyday but long for a personal training session. Thanks for the chance to win this great product Kristen!!!!
ReplyDeleteIn which activity would you like a lesson from an expert?
ReplyDeleteRunning!
I'll go one further and even tell you the expert I'd like: Brendan Brazier.
Can ya help a gal out? ツ
Yoga or hooping to get in shape!
ReplyDeleteI want to learn to surf! Now that i've started going raw i have so much energy and think that would be a great outlet.
ReplyDeleteI would love a blog consultation or a flying trapeze lesson.. Thanks for the giveaway Kristen!
ReplyDeleteJuggling! No, seriously, juggling.
ReplyDeleteJuggling! Haha. No, seriously, juggling.
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn how to balance my chakra, so I can help continue and improve my balance from within.
ReplyDeleteI would love to receive a lesson from a Taiji expert. That time spent would be incredibly valuable.
ReplyDeleteA trapeze lesson from an expert would be fantastic. I think it requires so much focus and determination to master such a skill. (Man on Wire = great movie)!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say yoga, but I think I'd really really like a lesson in flying from an expert! Like, flying an airplane! I'm terrified of heights, and I think it would be a really interesting way to conquer my fear!
ReplyDeleteweight training! for some reason i am so intimidated by it. i feel like i don't know what i'm doing, then get frustrated with it. i AM determined to master it though :)
ReplyDeletewoo! spring cleansing!
I would love to have a lesson/sit-in from a clinical psychiatrist. I'm currently an undergrad majoring in Psychology, and it would be perfect in helping to decide whether I'd like to go to Grad school!
ReplyDeleteI would also love to have a lesson from a pilot!
This list could go on for days, but my tops would be:
ReplyDelete1) Raw Chef
2) Dog Trainer (specifically one who trains older dogs who refuse to obey on hikes!)
3) Make Up Application Artist
4) Wine Maker/Sommelier
I sure hope I win, I'm detoxing from coffee right now and it's not fun!!
I would love to learn massage & lymph drainage to assist in the body's detoxification process!
ReplyDeleteOk.... so I'm totally the weirdo on this one... but I could use some expert advice on spending! This girl loves to shop! :) Nothing "crazy" or unbalanced but just things I don't always need.
ReplyDeleteIf it make it any better I'd say I splurge on a lot of fancy shmancy food products to bake with.
Fun giveway! :)
kristen,
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a lesson in sprouting sunflower seeds along with a lesson in raw food preparation.
I need a cleanse and have been considering the Garden of Life Raw Cleanse....
I would love to get a lesson in surfing!! I may live in Chicago with no oceans in sight, but I'd love to give surfing a shot someday :)
ReplyDeletePilates
ReplyDelete1. With someone who can help me develop an organic, family-feeding garden!
ReplyDelete2. I would love to study under a portrait artist as well!
3. a yoga master!
I would absolutely LOVE an aerial silks lesson. I have been wanting to try it for ages, but I can't seem to find a place that has lessons where I live!
ReplyDeleteI also would be very happy to learn how to roll my r's, although I'm not sure that's the kind of thing one could find lessons in. It would help my spanish a lot, though....
Anyway, thanks a lot for the giveaway!
I would learn to meditate from a master. It's something I have never attempted on my own- perhaps I don't trust my mind to be quiet all on it's own!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if this counts, but I would really like to have a serious session with a cat trainer. I know that sounds silly, but I used to volunteer at a shelter with this guy who swore he could train any cat. My newest little monster is....a monster. Completely adorable, but a monster. Does that count? If not then I'd go with a cooking class, to work on technique and things like that.
ReplyDeleteLike many others have posted, the list could go on and on.
ReplyDeleteMy two top choices:
-a Zumba lesson from the master (because it is so much fun)
-a lesson on preparing raw food (because I love to "un"cook for me and the people in my life)
I'd like a professional gymnast to teach me how to do a cartwheel. I think 38 is just the right age to learn such a skill!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm assuming you mean in the realm of the health and nutrition, I would have to say strength training. Since form is everything, would love to know that I'm getting it right -- being the most safe and effective. After that, Zumba, and after that, counseling sessions with a naturopath, such as my chiropractor, who is brilliant, and I have SO many questions!
ReplyDeletePosted link to FB. Again, I would love to glean from the knowledge of a strength trainer and have regular sessions with a naturopath. The big question right now is -- organic or not organic, and why? Some foods simply do not need to be organic. Others really, really do. I've figured out about the roots, the lack of "skins," etc. And I've heard that hard, aged cheese is fine, but soft cheeses and dairy MUST be -- yet not so highly pasteurized. Ugh! Confusing! But I am oh so INTERESTED! Thanks, Kristen!
ReplyDeleteI would love to take raw "cooking" lessons from an expert!
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn more about food combining...it kind of intimidates me, but I want to figure it out. Also, gardening!! I want to learn how to make a great basic garden in a teeny apartment.
ReplyDeleteI also tweeted this: @kelseycliche
ReplyDeleteI would love to get insight, lessons and advice from a gardening expert. I love gardening and we have converted half of our yard into a garden, but I would love to learn how to maximize our space and efforts!
ReplyDeleteI would love to take a lesson from a rock climbing expert and a raw food chef! Thank you, Kristen!
ReplyDeleteI didn't have to think too hard about this one! I would love to take lessons from a Mom of young child who is a raw chef. I think that would be the most valuable lesson I could ever have.
ReplyDeleteAs strange as it sounds, hockey! I grew up playing ringette so I love skating, but somehow I never got around to playing hockey (I'd love to join a shinney game one of these days).
ReplyDeletei would love a lesson on how to do a back hand spring
ReplyDeleteSince I'm fairly new to raw food ... raw food cooking lessons, of course! Also, I'd love direction from an organic gardener on how to create an edible landscape maximizing every square inch of space on my city lot. I'm on my way with fruit trees, berries, and a vegetable garden but I want more, more, more! Thanks, Kristin, for the opportunity ... I was just looking at Raw Cleanse at my local health food store a couple of days ago!
ReplyDeleteFood combining! I'm a raw food newbie so maybe you all could help me out :)
ReplyDeletefacebooked!
ReplyDeletei would love to have a snowboard lesson from shaun white!!! double mctwist 1260 coming up :]
ReplyDeletei tweeted! @carrothead
ReplyDeleteI would like a lesson from an expert in gently but effectively disciplining your children. I've tried spanking, the supernanny approach of time out for everything, naptime, I'm embarrassed to say I sometimes even find myself yelling (today's spanking). . . I know not all children can be disciplined the same and not all situations call for the same type of discipline, so maybe what I *really* need is a lesson from an expert in patience or better understanding my kids. . . but that's what I'd like a lesson in.
ReplyDeleteQUESTION: In which activity would you like a lesson from an expert?
ReplyDeleteAnswer: Indigenous and natural medicines
Tweeted this contest via @naturallymariam
ReplyDeleteEating Raw! I was diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer a month ago. I am a 31 year old female who is overall healthy (well, besides the cancer!) I am VERY interested in switching to the Raw side, but it's a bit overwhelming!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to get a kettlebell lesson from Mike Mahler (and bring my fiance' too). Mike Mahler is a very smart inspirational vegan. He puts it all together: exercise, nutrition, spirituality and so much more.
ReplyDelete"In which activity would you like a lesson from an expert?"
ReplyDeleteHmm... I'd have to say meditation or something fun like learning how to do lucid dreaming. Is that an activity? :)
