Welcome to Well, Then, taking a look at the biggest news and trends when wellness and travel intersect.

‍TikToker Tory Trombley went viral while sharing her experience at The Ranch Malibu; a luxury wellness resort that offers an immersive program of a guided fitness regime, wellness support, and properly calibrated nutrition to help guests feel their best.

The Ranch takes guests out on two- and four-hour hikes through the picturesque Malibu mountains daily, and provides them with a package of just six almonds as sustenance (extra snacks and larger portions are available by request). Here’s what else you need to know:

Seven-day or nine-day programs are available, and The Ranch also offers buy-outs for those seeking ultra-privacy.
Guests are put on a plant-based organic diet of about 1,400 calories per day. But don’t fret, snacks are available if you need them.
Be prepared to sweat. Each day begins with a two- or four-hour hike; followed by lunch, restorative yoga, strength-training workout classes and a daily massage.
Guests are encouraged to unplug and disconnect from electronic devices.
The program is open to an intimate group of just 25 guests, often made up of celebrities, tech and business executives, founders and more.
Guests also enjoy a weekly cooking demonstration and tour of the onsite, certified-organic garden. Don't miss the garden’s fruit – you can grab it and eat it any time.
East Coasters can get in on the action too – The Ranch Hudson Valley is now open, offering four and five-day programs.
