Good evening Meena. You may or may not remember me and that’s OK.  I wanted to reach out however and say thank you.

In the spring of 2018 my wife and I visited you. At the time, we were very curious to learn about Ayurvedic medicine and were excited to find a local practitioner. To make a long story short, you and I discussed many things, one of which was my drinking. I would have 1-2 beers every night, and anywhere from 4-6+ on weekend nights. I thought this was normal, since basically everyone in my social circle adheres to this behavior.

You looked me right in the eye and said, “well, that’s just alcoholism”. At the time, I sort of scoffed and brushed off your advice to reduce my drinking; I didn’t want to hear that it was a problem. It took me almost a year, but your words kept coming back to me: “well, that’s just alcoholism”. This past March 1st, I quit drinking 100%. Zip, zero ,zilch. I’ve lost 25 pounds and now have an unlimited membership at Citizen Yoga and attend class several times per week.

I’ve never felt better. And it really all started because you were the first person to tell me the truth about the amount I was drinking, so for that I would like to say a very heartfelt and grateful thank you!
