Health Over Hospital

When Deepak came to me with 90 per cent blockages in his heart, every cardiologist he had met had told him to get a bypass surgery done. There was only one cardiologist, his childhood friend, who told him, “Deepak, I know the kind of guy you are. The moment you get your bypass surgery done, you’re going to go right out and start eating all the things that have caused the blockages in the first place. You need to change your lifestyle.”

And at that time, Deepak got in touch with me. He shifted his eating habits completely and moved to a highly nutritious and primarily plant-based diet along with very mild exercises as his heart would be at risk if he did even moderate exercise. In three weeks’ time, his blood tests showed a 30 per cent decline in disease. Just three weeks. Talk about instant gratification, right?

 Deepak had completely avoided the trauma of the surgery, the cost of hospitalisation and the recovery period of six months. And that is the miracle of changing your lifestyle. You go from the fear of being in hospital to putting your health over hospital.  It has been four years, and Deepak is doing fine.

I have had many such cases with different lifestyle diseases like type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity, certain types of cancers, autoimmune conditions, but the outcome of changing their lifestyle has always been the same: if the person follows the programme, the reports always show improvement continuously and I have helped many finally get off medication and lead a more independent life.

Their life is then not riddled by doctors, bills, low energy, surgeries, high costs of hospital rooms. They live a free life where they can travel without fear, live without worrying about medical costs due to lifestyle diseases, increase energy levels to enjoy a quality of life that they were meant to. Do you want to do the same?

If yes, then decide to put your health first and prioritise it. No excuses of, “Oh I have that party today,” or “this is a terribly busy time at work, I will do it later.” How do you know that later will come?

Life does not come with a guarantee card and we have to seize the opportunities that we have today with us to be able to make the most of  today, whether it is our work or our aspirations. At the end of  the day, you need good health and energy to fulfil your aspirations, don’t you?  

I have started this new initiative, Health Over Hospital for exactly this reason, to help people understand how they can change their lifestyle. And I’m going to go to every city and ask each one of you to register for this workshop that will help you prioritise your life by understanding how diseases take root in the internal and external environment and how to prevent or reverse them.

Our first workshop is in Mumbai on April 5, 2019 and for those in Mumbai, who are even remotely interested in doing something about getting healthy, it is a must attend. And what are the stakes? Just an afternoon of your life at Taj Hotel, Bandra, West.  

You can register by just inboxing me on any of my social media accounts, whether it is Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, they are all called RachnaRestores and I can guide you on the process. Or you can just sit here, wonder whether an afternoon of your life is going to be worth giving yourself the opportunity to heal. The choice is yours.  

For those who are like Deepak, I will be waiting at the other end of the stage.
