Exercise Doesn't Do Depression

Thanks for all of your care over the past two weeks. I arrived feeling drained of energy and will return home with an improved outlook and more balanced lifestyle. I didn’t know quite what to expect coming in and my experience exceeded my expectations. Thanks!

I want to thank you for a truly enjoyable time. I first wanted to have a good time and you made this venture exceed all my expectations. Second I wanted to see beauty and you have done that in not only the out of doors but inside too. Last, I wanted to get started again and everyone helped me do that. I am very fortunate in so many ways and you have added to that good fortune. Finally, keep up the camaraderie, friendship, and community and keep communing.

Flying to B.C. to attend a “boot camp” for many may seem like a ludicrous way to take a holiday and destress. Far from it! It is the whole enchilada! Magnificent country, gourmet food, first class facilities and a great team. I experienced spectacular trails, enjoyed camaraderie with a small group and learned a ton about nutrition, chemical load (detox) and destressing. the Whole staff was friendly, professional, fun and attentive. Oh! And the massages at the end of the day were the final exclamation mark. Come!!

Wonderful program! This is my third time at Mt Trek. The best part if the positive staff. The second best if everything else! I feel refreshed, energized, nourished, and most of all healthier and ready to face the world back home.

Robin

This program transformed my commitment to my physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. The degree of professionalism and encouragement from every staff member far surpassed any other program I have experienced. During my stay everyone worked diligently to meet my every need. At Mountain Trek, I could relax while in the hands of dedicated, caring professionals.

It was a transformative experience for me and as I approach 65 I feel very healthy and strong and am totally committed to my wellness regime. I can’t stop getting older, but I can feel great and be strong as I get older and I am determined to age in strength and wellness as much as I can.
I love your program and hope to come twice a year, once in Mexico and once in BC over Labor Day.

Off blood pressure med’s after 1^st week, dropped 20lb sack of potatoes halfway through. Know my body better and better prepared to transition and continue.

A boot camp I will never forget! The staff and facilities at Mountain Trek, BC guided me through a week of intense physical training, spiritual growth and relaxation through yoga and a heightened awareness of healthy nutrition. Hiking in the Purcell Mountains in the spring was truly the way to jump start my body into leading a more active lifestyle and healthier life.

Roxanne

Great program, wonderful staff, beautiful scenery – probably the best thing I’ve done for myself in years. Maybe ever!

Peggy

The program exceeded all of my expectations. It was comprehensive and dealt with my “whole being”. My needs for learning how to hike and deal with heights on the trail were met with skill, compassion, and patience. On top of that I was able to detox, destress and really get some practical help for turning around my lifestyle. As an added bonus I lost 8.6 lbs in one week.

Tracy

Over the years I have tried every possible type of “diet” that was available on the market – all tried and all failed. What Mountain Trek offers; accurate body mass assessment, a personalized fitness program with excellent guides, a very healthy and delicious food plan, and a comprehensive educational platform to move forward from, have given me that tools I need to feel I can finally be successful. Thank you doesn’t possibly say it well enough. My three weeks here truly will change my lifetime.

Julie

I feel like I’ve discovered a Shangri la. A place of great rest, restoration and vitality. You re-enter your life a changed being.

Jo-Ann

Thank you for making this such an incredible experience and one that I can continue to experience when I get home. Each person on the MT Team brought deep experience and knowledge that when combined made for an excellent and life changing experience.

Janet

Mountain Trek is a life changing experience. Be prepared for hard work and commitment to the program…..and you will receive not only the immediate gratification of substantial weight loss, but a foundation of knowledge, tools, and habits that will change your life for the better, way beyond your return home. Oh, and I forgot to mention the fantastic staff, food and scenery!

Lindsay

I came here to kickstart my fitness and ramp up my cardio endurance. I am leaving with so much more. The holistic approach to health & fitness amazed me! I am leaving Mountain Trek more educated about nutrition, stress, sleep health, the detox process and the importance of it, as well as a peace I had not expected. The all-encompassing approach of the extremely competent and knowledgeable staff impressed me immensely. It was just what I needed and did not ever realize it until I compared my mindset prior to arrival and prior to departing.

Michelle

The program was truly inspiring and I can only conclude that the intense effort I was encouraged to put into it will shock me into changing my lifestyle to encompass more healthy living. Thank you Mountain Trek!

Fara

Mountain Trek provides an opportunity to center yourself physically and emotionally. The professionals that guide you on your journey to health really care about your well being. I lost 10 pounds of fat in one week and feel better than I have in years.

Rick

This is a phenomenal program! You pushed me way past where I thought my limits were and I’m coming away with much stronger confidence in my current fitness and my potential. I learned a lot of new concepts in nutrition and weight loss which I’m excited to integrate at home. Most importantly, the intimate small group setting combined with incredibly caring and perceptive staff ensured that I got exactly what I needed from this trip! Thank you.
