But in the end we just didn't feel like we could let him be gone from our family for a month! :) We're considering going to a family health and fitness retreat this fall if they decide to go ahead with it, though. The cleansing retreat sounds peaceful and relaxing!

The cleansing retreat sounds peaceful and relaxing!

The movie is rated R and, at the time, I was in 9th grade! Maybe I should put it in my Netflix queue... :-) Ryan I remember when that movie came out, but I never did see it.

Ryan, did you ever see that movie titled, The Road To Wellsville? It is loosely based on the teachings of Dr. Kellogg; I say "loosely" because they are actually poking fun at --rather than touting-- his cause: maximum health through a wholesome vegan diet (maybe even raw), colonics, ample rest, and exercise. Funniest scenes depict the strange "exercise" equipment that was sold at that time. A lot of bizarre massagers and machines that vigorously shake the body. Ironic how after I saw this movie, rather than scoffing at "wacky" Dr. Kellogg, I wanted to learn more about him and find out if his resort is still in operation!

I did two searches on your forum. One for "cleansing retreat" and the other for "retreat." Neither search produced a thread that is relevant to my post. I don't want to discourage comments at all. I appreciate them, and want to encourage thoughtful discussion here. Thanks!
