As part of the program, the winners participate in ongoing personal training, nutrition consultations, health strategies recommendations, complementary and alternative medicine treatments (acupuncture, energy healing, hypnotherapy), hands-on cooking experiences in the Wellness Kitchen, therapeutic treatments in The Spa at Four Seasons, group workshops and more.

Project Transformation Winner: Bill Lowry

May 26, 2010 - 11:29AM

“Now is the time to change. I’m ready.”

Bill Lowry, one of our eight Project Transformation winners, is a business owner and geologist who lives in Ventura, California with his wife, 13-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son.

The main reason that Bill applied to Project Transformation at California Health & Longevity Institute was to become a positive role model for his children and his nephew, whose father (Bill’s brother) died from a sudden heart attack at the age of 40. For Bill, having a brother die so young was a huge wake up call. It was a signal that it’s now time to change both his and his relatives’ health habits to ensure that chronic disease will not affect his entire family.

“I want to inspire others in the same situation as me to change their lives.”

Sophia Fischer, one of our eight Project Transformation winners, is a freelance journalist from Oak Park, California. As a mother to four grown children, Sophia spent most of her adult life caring for her family and focusing all of her energy on them.

She applied to Project Transformation at California Health & Longevity Institute as a means to put her own personal health and well-being first.

He attended college at the United States Merchant Marine Academy, where he achieved his pinnacle of fitness by participating in crew for a short period of time during his freshman year and the rugby team throughout his junior and senior years. Upon graduation, he took a job refueling nuclear reactors all over the U.S. and Europe, a position that also required a high level of fitness.
