    [blockquote]Thank you for the seminar last night – it was very helpful and I know others that will enjoy it also. Regards, Christine [/blockquote]

    [blockquote]It was a complete mystery as to what to feed my child.  I knew she had a different body-type and I just didn't know what to feed her.  She had a different appetite and metabolism. When you showed me the dosha system I was relieved to know that there were foods that would stabilize her.   After following your recommendations, her skin condition improved and her sleep patterns are more regular.  Thanks Khabir. Deina Santoya, Ojai[/blockquote]

    [blockquote] I first sought out Khabir’s help as I was feeling effects that often coincide with over exposure to heavy metals. I was feeling dizziness, lightheaded, metallic tastes, slight depression and disruption in sleep. We completed a full detox of the liver and gallbladder.  I can say that since completion, the symptoms are gone.  Im sleeping better and my focus is back and sharp. Thanks Khabir! John Whyte, Ojai [/blockquote]

    [blockquote]The results were impressive [from your Gallbladder/Liver Flush Workshop] and I will be doing my second gallbladder/liver flush in a few months.  Thank you, Khabir, for your guidance through this process and being available to answer any concerns. Mary Kennedy, Ojai March, 2012[/blockquote]
