"I would first of all wish to thank you for the way you delivered the Pre Diabetic Course. You made it interesting and involving with a dash of humour to keep me interested.

You have been welcoming, encouraging, supportive and very professional throughout.. the whole course.

As you are well aware I entered the course wanting to make a change and make a difference for myself.

I managed (with your support and encouraging comments as I gave my step count and got on the scales).

I managed to cut portion sizes, eat more vegetables and cut down on puddings and fats. I also managed to up my exercise by cycling more and increasing my steps.

The results are amazing. I lost 3.5st with relative ease, which translates to a drop from XL to medium in shirts, jumpers and coats. I also lost 4 inch from my waist from 36 to 32.

My wife also followed my lead on diet and she too lost weight and dropped dress size.

We’ve had to buy new clothes, however I am happy with that as my trade-off for a healthier me was my main target.

Once again, I would like to thank you for your support and would like to wish you all the best for the future."

Ronnie King, Logistics Manager

What led to joining the course:

"I was diagnosed with Hypertension and diagnosed with a high blood sugar number.

Statistics indicated Afro-Caribbean males in my age group were at increased risk of heart failures, heart diseases, cancers, high blood pressure etc. Therefore I wanted advice on how reduce my chances of getting these things by improving my lifestyle choices.

I did not want to create a burden on my wife and family due to my bad diet and lack of physical activity."

How Hardeep helped:

"I found Hardeep was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, patient, and a good listener. He wasn't condescending, and treated all of us with respect.

He gave great advice on healthier food options and how they effect our health. Also how to become more active without the need to join a gym, and not feeling guilty if you don't achieve the goal you set."

"The improvements so far from completing the course:

Blood pressure has gone down
Blood sugar number has reduced
Stomach is lot flatter now, can now see my six pack
Can touch my toes more easily
Feel fitter and healthier
Better food choices - Eating less sugary and fatty items
Eating more fish, fruits, wholemeal products
Feeling overall more energetic and happier"

Gary Morley, Semi-Retired Chef

"I was diagnosed as borderline diabetic and was invited to attend the pre-diabetic course, which I did.

Hardeep immediately put everyone at ease with his easy manner and conversational style, acknowledging that we are all individuals, and that one size does not fit all.

He tailored to each person's circumstance and lifestyle, to make one’s choices best for us physically and mentally.

Through diet and exercise and the choices we make, determine the progress we make.

I continue to follow the regimen in the knowledge that, with luck as I get older, the experience from this will help me."

Neil Friend, Aerospace

"The Pre-Diabetes Class went well... it was very informative and interesting. My level of fitness was improved, and my level of nutrition was improved also.

"Hardeep is a natural coach. He is engaged, focussed and genuinely interested in people. My experience of working with Hardeep has always been extremely rewarding.

He is consistently able to challenge quite deeply held, and sometimes uncomfortable, belief systems in a safe but very pragmatic way, and offers insights and a perspective that I have always found truly valuable."

Emma Abel, Strategy Leader in IT

"I got into meditation as part of getting involved in more and more wellbeing activities. I was unsure about meditation and didn’t really understand how it could work for me.

I was looking into wellbeing to help me manage stress and depression, to stop myself from being overwhelmed with work and life stresses.

Hardeep ran some meditation sessions for me and a team being held as part of a wellbeing and mental health initiative. He volunteered his skills as part of this, and ran a session for a group of people on-site in the office.

Hardeep has such a calming and positive influence. He makes you feel as though he could take everything in his stride, and that everything will be ok – and this is contagious!

Hardeep’s knowledge and impact in the meditation was incredible. I felt quite cynical about meditation before the session, but the way in which Hardeep delivered the session gave me an understanding of how beneficial it can be. He is an incredible teacher.

Hardeep’s chilled vibe and gentle humour put me at ease instantly. He gave me the opportunity to tailor the session and his approach to what I thought would benefit me most at that time. He was supportive, empathetic and empowering in his approach.

The best benefit was giving me the space and opportunity to step back and reflect on recent weeks with pride rather than feeling that I wasn’t doing enough. Hardeep helped me realise what I needed to prioritise in my life to give me energy, purpose and motivation.

Hardeep helped me overcome a sense of exhaustion, overwhelm and lack of motivation. The session gave me the opportunity to “reset”. Thank you Hardeep!

"I regularly attended Hardeep’s lunchtime meditation sessions in the office. The sessions were an absolute tonic as a break away from the laptop screen and constant calls and provided a moment of calm and downtime for me.

Hardeep delivered his sessions in a very accessible format which encouraged those new to meditating to try (and come back regularly!) as well supporting those more seasoned meditators amongst the group.

Anyone who has a chance to work with Hardeep in either a group session or 1:1 will be guaranteed to have his undivided attention and will leave with a sense of calm and grounding."

"When Hardeep and I worked at the same company he arranged weekly meditation sessions for colleagues to attend and I have to say that they were a wonderful oasis of "something different" during the grind of the working day. It was most surprising to find that, despite not thinking I was someone who would benefit from meditation, it was in fact extremely effective and really did make a difference.

I would very much encourage everyone to give it a try, whether it's at work or during personal time. You will be pleasantly surprised, and Hardeep has the skill, empathy and depth of character to make each session a valuable and lasting experience."

"Having worked with Hardeep for many years, I was pleased to hear that he was offering open group weekly meditation sessions. Traversing difficult times at work, I could feel the benefit of the sessions as they helped me understand the benefit of taking time to step back and reflect on things.

With a growing emphasis on wellbeing and mindfulness, we were keen to support our team and decided to run a session on meditation. I asked Hardeep to run a session for about 12 of us. He provided an overview of the process and then a calming narrative during the session. Many had not attended this type of session before, but several mentioned afterwards that they had really benefited from the meditation.

I've found Hardeep to be a great source of knowledge on mindfulness and meditation and would thoroughly recommend his services.

Lily Moharrer, Business Founder & Holistic Vocal Coach

"I worked with Hardeep during the pandemic between March 2020 and September 2020. As for so many, this was a very difficult time for me but with Hardeep's guidance, wisdom and grounded support, I felt courageous enough to meet parts of my personality that I had locked away for years. Parts of myself that I felt too ashamed to acknowledge consciously or to share with another.

Hardeep led me through Kundalini yoga practices, breath practices and meditation. Our time together was invaluable and helped me navigate a truly uncomfortable and soul-shaking time in my life.

His dedication to remaining a dependable, calm and open-minded coach was not unnoticed and helped build a deep trust in our sessions.

Don't get me wrong, we laughed A LOT which laid a playful and easeful foundation for my transformation as I felt safe to share and be vulnerable.

I cannot thank Hardeep enough. You won't regret seeking guidance from him."

Reconnect to purpose and passion."
