Deysi Mir, San Luis Obispo, CA (talk, Ayurveda)

Regarding the 9-day Ayurveda Workshop in Rishikesh India from Nov. 26th to Dec. 4th, 2016:

"Hello everyone my name is Deysi Mir, I decided to attend last year's 2016 class because I was trying to decide what route to go with I wanted to become a holistic nutritionist or to be a herbalist. When a great friend told me about ayurveda I was so happy and excited because I had finally found what I was looking for and more! Ayurveda is a wholesome lifestyle and practice. I definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking into living an alternative lifestyle or becoming a ayurvedic practitioner. I am extremely excited for this year's class the 2016 class was a great experience and loved everything we learn so I am really looking forward to this year new experience in increasing my knowledge and being a step closer in becoming a Ayurvedic practitioner." Deysi Mir, San Luis Obispo, CA, January 2017

Angela Cunningham, Dubai, UAE (herbs, Ayurveda, talk)

"Today I have met Khabir Southwick, at last, and had the most eye opening discussion about health, herbs and spices. Khabir is an experienced Herbalist and Ayurveda expert. Aside of that, he is an amazing person with a great sense of humor, who will encourage, motivate you and convince you that nothing is impossible when it comes to your health and wellbeing. Highly recommend to all to reach out to him and get his advice and help. Thank you, Khabir. Endless gratitude." Angela Cunningham, Dubai, UAE, April 2017

Sara Medina, Ventura, CA (allergy, herbs, respiratory)

"The recent rain and low clouds in Ventura put a great deal of mold in the air, a concentration of which I walked through a couple weeks ago and began having the worst allergy attack of my life. This went on for 4 days until I finally saw the doctor, who one day gave me an inhaler (which didn't help), and the next day I was put on prednisone which also did little to help until the 5th day. Even on 3 different allergy medications and the steroid, I was still having an allergic reaction every few hours when the antihistamines would start to wear off. The doctor told me I would have to start wearing a mask outside - and to stop going outside whenever possible! I knew I was reacting to something still in my body, I could feel the heaviness in my chest still, and was very worried because it was getting worse now that the second round of steroids was over, and I was about to leave town. I had seen Khabir for other health problems previously, but my allergies had never been bad enough to really scare me before so I hadn't talked to him about them. At our visit Khabir made me a strong tea and I was able to get some immediate relief, however even he could see my symptoms returned within an hour. It was decided that I would start a lung tonic and sip it throughout the day, along with an organic honey from the acacia trees I had recently purchased. Within a day I felt considerably better, and week later I came off the other allergy medications. In the last 2 days I've only had to take one benedryl, which is quite unusual for me! This lung tonic has made a huge difference in my life and although I went through the bottle quickly, it is comparable in cost to what I was spending on allergy medication (which was not helping), and I am committed to staying on it because it has brought such relief! Thank you Khabir for taking the time to customize my mixes and pay attention my individual needs, I am so hopeful now that this allergy season will not be my downfall this year!"

Kareem Mohamed, Dubai, UAE (weight, herbs)

 "I had an appointment with Khabir about 3 month ago and I have lost about 20kgs of extra weight, thanks to him of-course and also to the herbs that he gave to me. When I first started the program I didn't think it would be that helpful but I was wrong those herbs will let you know exactly how badly you were treating your self, it might be hard at first but once you get used to the new lifestyle you will not be able to go back." Kareem Mohamed, Dubai, UAE, March 2017

Brian Berman, Ojai, CA (herbs, diet, energy, infection)

"I was happy with my appointment and first session and book a follow up trusting that the herbs and dietary changes would be helpful to the symptoms my body is having. I wasn't sure I'd have the will to alter my diet in the way that you suggested. But as I go through your suggested treatment, I am more confident that the counsel you have given me and the approach you have suggested, my energy will return as my symptoms subside. I felt the reduction of my flu symptoms after a day, and I continue to improve each day. I will begin phase two and start eating right for my type, and regain lost energy from eating the wrong foods, and hopeful have a complete reversal from my symptoms. Thanks, Khabir." Brian Berman, Ojai, CA, February 2017

Mari McCarthy, Pittsburgh, PA (insomnia, energy, memory, diet)

"Khabir is the first real doctor I’ve met in my lifetime. He asks questions and listens. He is my health and wellness partner in working on how best to address MY health challenges. His approach is positive and supportive. In the short time (6 weeks) I’ve been using his health-care services (tailored to meet my body’s needs), I’ve increased my sleeping time, gotten more active and my brain is clear and focused. In addition, I enjoy the foods I now eat and my body thanks me, a lot." Mari McCarthy, Pittsburgh, PA, February 2017

Magda Rod, Los Angeles, CA (Ayurveda, herbs, immune)

"Khabir really knows his stuff. Not only has he helped me understand and alleviate an autoimmune condition I've battled with for 30 years, he's been very generous with his time and wisdom, taking the time to explain everything. His depth of knowledge on Ayurveda and herbs is vast, and his keen sense of what's required to heal people is a true gift. He's a caring and effective practitioner as well as a knowledgeable teacher." Magda Rod, Los Angeles, CA, February 2017

Tanja Dimitrijevic, Dubai, UAE (anxiety, insomnia, diet)

"Dear Khabir, thank you for your service. After just couple days of taking the calming tea and adrenal tea, my daily rhythm improved and I felt much better. Slept like a baby and after taking recommended spices before food honestly speaking I started to eat normally with a normal appetite feeling. I wake up and I feel I am hungry. Before was completely opposite. I am grateful to meet you and to cooperate with you. Hope to meet with you again. Sincerely," Tanja Dimitrijevic, Dubai, UAE, February 2017

Corinne, France and India (Ayurveda, herbs, talk)

Regarding the 9-day Ayurveda Workshop in Rishikesh India from Nov. 26th to Dec. 4th, 2016:

"Having been in India for 10 years and trying to understand the Ayurveda, I finally was able to do so durring Khabir's 9 day retreat. After listening to Khabir sharing his passion for herbs, I could understand much better the practical and even the "spiritual" way of ayurvedic lifestyle. I learned that that body, mind and spirit should be balanced and for the easiest way is to monitor and maintain your doshas. Thanks your Khabir for teaching us in a clear and practical "western" style about such subtle eastern science" Corinne, France and India, January 2017

Robert Linson, El Dorado, CA (Ayurveda, diet, talk)

Regarding the 9-day Ayurveda Workshop in Rishikesh India from Nov. 26th to Dec. 4th, 2016:

"To say that my trip to India studying Ayurveda was a life changing experience would be under selling it. I approach every novel situation with an open mind but a healthy dose of skepticism. My only exposure to Ayurveda before Studying in India was as one of Khabir's patients. He was able to improve my severe symptoms 80% just with dietary changes when traditional MDs threw their hands up without answers. My initial thought was that I'm just one person who is relatively young and healthy. I wasn't sold yet. But after watching each and every student with various health concerns improve in just a weeks time, while in India eating Ayurvedic food and receiving panchakarma treatments, I became a believer!

As I continue to practice an Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle my health continues to improve. Working as a physical therapist I can't wait to spread this incredibly powerful knowledge of healthy living to my patients. Khabir has a wealth of knowledge and experience in Ayurveda to cement the textbook learning. As an added bonus we were connected with various Ayurvedic doctors to further our knowledge and networking opportunities.

Whether you just want to work on your own health or become a conduit for healing, Khabirs Ayurvedic workshops in India will not disappoint!" Robert Linson, El Dorado, CA, December 2016
