Aparna and I worked together many years ago to figure out a myriad of digestive issues I was experiencing. With her help, I was able to identify aspects of my diet (and my life!) that were out of balance and take steps toward rebalancing. I still use some of the recipes I learned at that time and am ecstatic to report that over 10 years later, my GI issues are gone and my allergies are under control. Thank you, Aparna! 🙏🏽

I so enjoyed working together and it changed my life COMPLETELY. It set me on a wellness path. She helped me with my allergies, skin problems and health issues. The coaching sessions with Aparna really shifted my perspective toward a complete wellness lifestyle shift. The Indian cooking classes were a very unique addition to the experience and I highly recommend!

“Aparna‘s recipes helped me learn to love the cooking of India. Her use of spices, of different cooking techniques, all came together to help me create great meals.I also understood why we cooked it in a certain way and the delicious food was healthy. Her recipes were not greasy or heavy and I also found they were simple and quick to make”

"Cooking with Aparna was so much fun! As a certified NYC Health Coach,she has so much valuable information right at her fingertips about how to cook and eat for optimal health. We made a variety of traditional Indian dishes together, which was especially wonderful for me as I am currently studying the ancient Indian science of Ayurveda which focuses on diet and lifestyle for wellness and longevity. I’ve been to many Indian restaurants here in NYC, but I have never tasted anything as fresh and wholesome as the food we made together, which was tailored to suit my specific dietary needs and tastes. Aparna clearly
loves to cook, and also loves to transfer her knowledge to her students. She’s a kind and thoughtful guide. I came away from our lessons with a variety of dishes to prepare and the confidence that I could make them on my own. I highly recommend Aparna. You will enjoy your time together and you will never go hungry!"

"My energy levels are high and I feel good. Aparna took time with me, explaining in such a warm, enjoyable way how to cook healthy dishes that would not only feed my family and improve our health...but also nourish our souls. . She thought me how to use food as medicines and explained every detail patiently. She helped me see that if we didn’t enjoy a certain spice, it wasn’t the end if the world to leave it out;  we were still benefitting from all the other ingredients in our food.  After spending time with Aparna, I not only cook in a healthier way (and enjoy tastier food!!), I also gave wonderful memories of the time we spent together...and I sincerely feel I’m a better stronger person because of her.”

Doing the health program with Aparna has resulted in the following: Increased positivity and confidence to deal with my challenges and have more energy every day due to a better lifestyle. Ability to understand and control my cravings. Weight loss, and the ability to keep my weight steady. Pain reduction due to understanding my body, and being active.

Some of the health related things were known to me, while others I learned. Being in the program made me aware, gave me support, motivated me to reach my goals in a time bound way, and made me cherish meaningful relationships. These life skills resulted in a healthier way of life. I highly recommend Aparna. She is very easy to connect with, understands her subject well, is an excellent health coach, and will definitely make a positive impact on your life.

“After I began the program, I realized I would eagerly look forward to my time with Aparna. I felt very comfortable sharing with her. She listened with great care, and often asked for clarifications. Through discussions we would together arrive at certain steps to address specific issues. Over the period of 6 months, I felt a significant positive difference in my well-being. I am very happy to recommend Aparna as a sensitive, caring, and effective health coach.”

My time spent with Aparna was so valuable! Her knowledge is vast, and her teaching methods and positive personality make learning a joy. Just after two sessions with her I could feel a big difference in my body and after completing the course I was a changed person. I came away from her classes with a whole lot of practical information, great new recipes and a renewed enthusiasm for pursuing a healthier lifestyle, in and out of the kitchen.

My experience with Aparna began when I joined her three months program. From the first session itself, I was very comfortable with her. Through our sessions, I began understanding the signals my body was giving me. I lost weight in inches and I felt a surge in my energy and positivity, started eating healthier food. She taught me the importance of eating healthy and gave me recipes also simple exercises which i could do at home. I felt motivated towards my work.

When I joined Aparna’s program, I was going through some challenging times. I had an eating disorder, and often felt low. Over the sessions, I found my self worth improving, I felt more confident, I felt happier, I felt more centred. Over time I lost 5 kgs, became aware of being hydrated, and eating healthier. One of the best things I got, was this habit of ensuring enough movement in my day. I am fitter, happier, more motivated, and healthier.

When I began the program, I knew I wanted to overcome some difficulties but did know how. I had kidney stones earlier, UTI, disturbed sleep, and would find a compulsion to have sweets and snacks at night. Over the sessions, I understood the importance of drinking water, and how fulfilling it feels to be well hydrated. Aparna went to the root of my cravings, and showed me ways to deal with them. There was a significant improvement in health with deep sleep and a regular sleep pattern.
