Stories of Transformation

From personal health breakthroughs to thriving practitioner businesses — hear from our community.

The CHEK system allows me to approach patients and clients through a holistic lens with a credibly robust toolkit. This even applies to the dying people I work with (as a hospice nurse). I recommend the CHEK Institute to fellow nurses, doctors, and PTs. I often state, "Even if you never use any of it for clients, you and your family can greatly benefit from what you will learn as I have".
My dream in the next 3 years of my career is to transition full time to CHEK Coaching, using my own facility on my land as well as facilitating more workshops, with one I am working on with a local osteopathic doctor with a holistic framework on 'the Barefoot Lifestyle'.

The sense of accomplishment I felt after completing IMS3 was more than I've felt from anything else. The people you meet, the network you build, and the memories that are created make the CHEK Institute a magical educational experience.

Little did I know that when I was a young, fledgling personal trainer, I had been absolutely brainwashed by much of my university education in health, fitness and nutrition. Sure, I knew all about the "leg extension machine" and how to "eat healthy whole grains" and "lean protein", but it wasn't until I read Paul Chek's book How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy! that I suddenly entered a brand, new world of primal, ancestral living; functional movement; food that is actually appropriate for the human physiology and much more! This book was formative in my education and career, and I owe a lifetime of gratitude to Paul for it.
BEN GREENFIELD
NY Times Bestselling Author, Podcaster, and Founder of KION
We first met Paul before "How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy!" was published and realized that he has forgotten more about health and fitness than most experts have learned. His philosophy of blending body, mind and soul is as cutting edge now as it was 20 or more years ago and deeply resonated with our own approach to fitness and health. His book is a high level but still accessible resource for anyone seeking guidance or tactics on healthy eating, functional exercise and a holistic approach to overall wellbeing.
LAIRD HAMILTON

When I first encountered How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy! I had no idea it would become such an integral part of my life. Initially, I approached it as just another book, but it quickly became a cornerstone of my personal well-being and professional development. As a coach and trainer, the principles and techniques in the book provided a robust framework that I could adapt to various contexts, enabling me to support my clients in their journeys toward holistic wellness. It is the foundation upon which I built my coaching and training sessions, and it is the basis of the Corporate Wellness program that I started for LinkedIn in 2010. How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy! revolutionized my approach to life and work. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to enrich their personal life or enhance their professional practice..
MICHAEL SUSI
Head of Global Wellness Linkedin
Reflecting on Paul Chek’s How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy! as it marks its 20th anniversary, I am struck by just how visionary and ahead of its time it was. When I first encountered this book, its principles seemed revolutionary, and two decades later, they remain not only relevant but essential. Paul’s approach, simple and direct yet profoundly impactful, makes wellness accessible to everyone. This book isn’t just for reading—it’s a manual for living. I believe everyone should not only read this book, but actively look at how to integrate it into your life.
