my story

When I arrived in Bangalore after completing my Engineering and a brief job stint in Kolkata, I had just one ambition. Work for the best tech companies in the world and grow in my career. Although it was far from my childhood dream of doing something big to impact the world, chasing career growth was exciting to say the least.

But it was not long before the constant late nights, the stress and the frequent eating out started to show up in my belly. The expanded waistline was easy to ignore. But when I started experiencing excessive knee pain and chronic insomnia, I began to despair. I was an athlete during my college days, having played Badminton and Table Tennis for the college team, and those health issues were completely unknown to me.

Thankfully, a cousin of mine helped me get in touch with a coach in the Wellness Quotient community. With her guidance, I was not only able to quickly get back to my state of ideal health, but I also understood about the guiding principles of wellness.

That would probably have been it. But life, as they say, has its own plans. A tragic experience that two of the very close family members of mine had to undergo opened my eyes to the devastating effects that lifestyle disorders like obesity and hypertension can cause to our bodies.
I knew that this horrifying experience could have been avoided if I had helped my family members practice the principles I had learned and practiced myself. I learned a big lesson from that experience, "Never wait for the perfect time in your life...because there isn't any such thing as a perfect time"!

This experience made me decide that if it is in my power, I would not let this happen again to anyone else. That is when I began to learn from the Wellness Quotient community about the natural healing principles of the body in depth. With the help of my coaches, a lot of reading, a lot of practice and experimentation on myself, I began to help other people around me to recover from their lifestyle challenges.

What began as a social service soon turned into my passion. The joy of seeing people get well and receiving their blessings was the most satisfying thing I ever experienced. I suddenly began to realize, "Helping people with their health is the 'BIG' thing that I have been wanting to do in my life since I was a kid. This is my impact on this world".
