I attended a 7 day residential get in shape program at IYI Coimbatore and it has been a life changing experience! I am morbidly obese and had given up on losing weight after trying a lot of fad diets and protein shakes and ruining my physical health and mental health in the process. Just when I thought there was no way out, Radha ma'am told me to get a grip on myself and pack my bags to the institute. As someone who had issues with discipline and consistency, the stay at the institute helped immensely. The 7 full days there were transformative! Simple traditional food, meditation, Yoga Asanas (for the modern folks - it was a mix of core strength training and cardio) and more importantly a holistic experience for the mind and body! The teachers there were all phenomenal, they knew what they were doing and they cared! Without even realizing what was happening, I lost 3 kilos in a week! I couldn’t believe my eyes! No useless diets or supplements. Just healthy food and discipline. I was able to sustain it after coming home as well and am on the path to losing weight and regaining my health permanently. This program has given me back my confidence and faith that all will be well. I highly recommend the residential program for a kickstart to one’s wellness journey. I am hoping there are more such sessions as I would like to go back once in 3 months or so.
