MEENA RADHAKRISHNAN

(Crafter,Quilter,Zentangle enthusiast)

When I met Ms. Shiny in April 2017, I was quite desperate. I was overweight, had bloating and digestive issues, lower-back disc problems and psoriasis on my palms. I needed to lose weight and all my previous attempts to do so were in vain. I was put on an anti-inflammatory diet plan, and the personalized diet that shiny came up with, her encouragement and suggestions have helped me immensely. My transformation in just four months is amazing. Not only have I knocked off a few kilos (and continue to do so) but I have lost in inches too! The biggest challenge was to make the changes to diet, for it involved giving up some of my favourite foods. But with patience and some effort, the results were to see. The most important thing for me, however, is not losing weight but understanding my body and how it reacts to the food that I eat. I have become acutely aware of how food affects my body and how it can heal itself, if we make right choices in our diet. As Ayurveda states, when your diet is wrong, even the strongest medicine is of no use. When your diet is correct, there is no need of medicine. Truly, food is medicine, -eaten in the right proportions at the right time, it helps the body heal itself. My energy levels are good. I feel happy and healthy and almost all the problems I had earlier have either been healed or reduced. I am thankful to Shiny and her team for everything.
