Healthy meeting alternatives for business travelers

New Life Hiking Spa is offering free meeting planning services and conference space to companies seeking to have a healthier alternative to traditional corporate retreats or meetings. New Life Hiking Spa is located at the Inn of the Six Mountains which has 3,250 square feet of meeting space. New Life Hiking Spa is open from May – September every year.

“As a former corporate person for over a decade, I can remember marathon meetings and company retreats where I sat at a conference table for the entire day. Cookies and coffee were always served in the afternoon, after a not-so healthy lunch. I guess that is one of the reasons I was 75 pounds heavier in those days,” states Kathleen LeSage. Mrs. LeSage owns New Life Hiking Spa with her husband, founder and director, Jimmy LeSage and together, they have developed a healthy meeting alternative to companies seeking to have off-campus company meetings or retreats. “Employees can be more productive during meetings eating healthy food, taking yoga and stretching breaks and breathing in the fresh Vermont air. In addition, we have a variety of team building activities, including ‘Laughing for Health’ and cooking demos,” she adds.

New Life Hiking Spa was chosen by MSNBC.com as “one of the top 10 destinations in the world to get in shape,” by Shape Magazine as “one of the eight best weight loss spas,” and by Health Magazine as “one of four great weight loss spas.” For three years in a row New Life has won Best for Weight Loss and Best for Affordability by SpaFinder Readers’ Choice Awards. New Life has also won Best for Cooking Demos by SpaFinder Readers’ Choice Awards.

The spa is a nationally recognized affordable spa located in the beautiful Green Mountains of Vermont. Known for its exhilarating hiking program, a world renowned weight loss retreat, delicious healthy meals and a comfortable atmosphere, it offers the chance to experience the peace of the outdoors in a down-to-earth, country inn environment. It is ideally suited for small groups, couples or individuals trying to improve their fitness level and eating habits.

New Life is open each year in Killington, Vermont from mid May through the end of September. New Life offers a variety of vacation options including a 2-4 day mini-getaway, a 5-10 day Jump Start Program and the 11-day or longer Weight Loss Retreat. One of the most respected spas in North America, New Life has been in business since 1978.
