Umang's Total Wellness Haven

			"I have to say yoga is becoming an intrinsic part of my life. I was going through a lot of emotional difficulties in life, and I have been looking ways to detox my emotional life and find peace. I have tried to practice yoga on my own, but it never produced any effect. When I saw a notice on Mr. Harding's door. I know I just had to try it. The first week was painful but it did not stop me. I felt I was getting toned, but most importantly I felt an inner change. My whole internal being was getting softer and I felt I was becoming more vulnerable and in tune with my emotions. My life as a teacher is very stressful, and I know yoga is a path to a more balanced inner life without which I cannot function well in my professional and personal life. My first experience in a mediation class was interesting. Time seems to have slowed down and there are changes to my perception of reality. I was especially impressed by the guided part of meditation when we are asked to breathe out the negative emotions of our life and breathing in wholeness. It is incredible. I am looking forward to learning more about yoga and center my life around the search for inner peace. In some sense, if one can balance the internal life, the whole world is fixed because the whole world is a subjective reality." ~Jane Chen, San Ramon.











			"A door has opened into the most calming light where I have found inner peace... Umang, my Yoga teacher, has opened this door for me! When I leave her class I always feel enlightened spiritually, emotionally and physically drained (in a good way) and relaxed. Thank you Umang for coming into my life and teaching me about Yoga ~ It is more than I ever expected!" ~ Barbara Neukum / Diablo Highlands Villas Resident"
			"Hello Umang, Many thanks for making the Yoga classes and routines fun and challenging. It has been exciting for me and most importantly, you have inspired me! I feel more vibrant these days and have learned to let go of things that zap my vitality and energy. Your constant reminders and words of wisdom have made me realize to not forgo my exercise routine and to ensure that there is time for personal rejuvenation. Within such a short period of time, you have thought me to be in touch with my core and to let go of negative thoughts that drag me down. You are a marvelous Yoga instructor!! Life is wonderful when there's balance emotionally, physically and spiritually. Thanks again, Bernadette (Barb)"
			"I have only been going to yoga for a short while, but already my body is more flexible, and I feel so much better. I love Umang\'s classes even more because she has a wonderful way of totally relaxing you, something very needed for me after spending the day with 31 active children. I also totally relate to her philosophy of life and the need for connecting with your inner self. I highly respect her as a teacher and would encourage you to give her classes a try.

			"Over the last year I have lost significant amount of weight with diet and the introduction of kickboxing. In July, I decided to add yoga with Umang to the mix. I have always been interested in yoga but never practiced it with much consistency. I struggled with a lot of restriction in my hips while kickboxing. Since I have been practicing yoga, my hips have opened significantly and I have seen a change my body. I am just stronger now but not bulky. I highly recommend the combination. Bonus: Umang is an absolute delight and inspiration." Thanks! Amy Ruff
			"I have tried many kinds of exercise, fitness routines and gyms, but nothing has ever struck the right chord with me until I tried Umang's yoga classes. In just a few short weeks, I can already feel the difference that yoga can make in one's life. It is truly a body-mind-spirit workout. Physically, I feel both stronger and more flexible. Mentally, I am more focused and less stressed. Spiritually, I feel calmer in the knowledge that life is to be lived and appreciated in the present moment. I have affirmed my belief that everything in our lives happens for a reason that fulfills God's purpose for us. All this from a yoga class! Umang has the gift of making yoga a true body-mind-spirit connection. Thank you, Umang! See you tonight, Stephanie"
