Testimonials

“I was suffering from lack of energy, difficulty sleeping, low mood and skin problems.

Some of the changes I made included incorporating different vegetables and lentils. Making lunch my largest meal. Cut out dairy, dry and rough foods. Making sure foods are cooked. Drinking herbal teas. I am now sleeping better, and have increased energy and attention. I don’t feel bloated anymore. The herbal recommendations have helped with my digestion.

Geeta has helped me to gain a deeper understanding of Ayurveda and understanding the role food plays in our physical, mental and emotional state. I have a better understanding about the different types of food, and the impact it has on my digestion. It’s made me more aware of how my body reacts to different foods and is helping me to understand what are the right foods for me.”

“I visited Geeta with concerns about nutrition, gaining a balanced lifestyle personalised to my needs and to understanding Ayurvedic philosophy.

The new routines, Ayurvedic herbs and “eating only when hungry” advice was a big shift in the way I approached food. Previously I ate often because I thought I needed to but my digestive engine wasn’t running. I have better focus, stability in energy, sense of grounding and mental alertness. Happy digestive system for the most part :)

We live in a time with many fads, ideas, stupid information with exaggerated availability - one can get lost, and not know what essential philosophy to have govern your lifestyle and your eating habits. Geeta helped me get a little closer to what I feel is right. The insights into the subject of digestion has been illuminating, especially, what and when to eat, and the waste elimination system of the body. It has become a pillar of priority and a huge benefit for me. Geeta was fabulous and incredibly knowledgeable with practical solutions and physical diagnosis.”

“I had bloating, slow digestion, tiredness, lack of hunger and acne. I made so many of Geeta’s suggested changes. I now eat cooked food instead of raw vegetables, my diet’s more varied and I use spices when I cook. I try to have meals only when I feel hunger.

My skin is less sensitive/doesn’t feel inflamed, I have more energy and no longer need naps during the day, feel less emotional during my period and have regular bowel movements.”

“I came to Geeta with issues of lethargy, indigestion issues, hormonal imbalance. I made many suggested improvements - sleeping better, trying to be more mindful about food types and timings. My sleep overall has improved and my eating habits are improving slowly.

Geeta gave a very comprehensive understanding about my body type and the practical steps that I could take. Making these improvements slowly but surely, I can now start to feel the benefits some months on from the initial consultation. I would highly recommend Geeta Vara to people and I would love to deepen my journey with Ayurveda.”

“I came to Geeta with issues of acne, lack of sleep, laziness, lack of focus, period pain, hair loss, loss of appetite and craving, fatigue and swollen eyes.

I changed how I think about food, mainly my breakfast, morning routine and evening routine have changed to the best. I learned what ingredients to use in my food and what to avoid. I also learned what times are best to eat according to my body type. I learned many new recipes from Geeta’s book. I learned how to use natural remedies for flu or any sickness which helped me prevent falling sick in general and avoid being sick repeatedly throughout the year. I also learned from Geeta how the quality of thoughts affect our health and how being more mindful and grateful reflects directly on our wellbeing. I filtered out any negative thoughts, worries, and toxic people, and I saw an immediate difference in my daily life and the quality of my decisions and progress in my academic and personal life.

I used a couple of ayurvedic formulas suggested by Geeta to help me with a sleep disorder, laziness, mental fog acne and my monthly cycles, and balance my doshas in general. Shortly after I used Shatavari & Ashwagandha I witnessed many improvements, it completely removed the intense monthly period pain, I can say it is 100% gone now! I feel more active, focused and full of energy. I also used another formula for my skin, which has removed my acne almost 100%. The changes were instant and came with full guidance from Geeta who was constantly following up with me and ensured proper knowledge transfer and full understanding of the best Ayurvedic tools to apply in my case. Most of the improvements I’ve seen were instant, and I was very satisfied with the changes within the first 3 months until today (two years now). The effects of these changes are still evident, although I have completed the prescribed formula a long time ago.

Geeta’s advice and guidance was essential in helping me understand what changes I had to implement in parallel to my diet and daily routine in order to maximize the benefits. I have also done a couple of treatments with Geeta, body massage and Nasya treatment. The body massage was great for relaxation and helped me reduce my anxiety. Nasya treatment is my favourite of all, the changes I have experienced were immediate and clearly visible. The puffiness around my eyes was instantly gone, I could focus and sleep much better each time after the treatment. Since I have made the changes recommended by Geeta in my diet and my life in general, I constantly receive compliments from my friends and colleagues about my skin and my energy levels, also no one believes me when I reveal my age! When I say that Geeta’s guidance has redefined my approach to life, I really mean it, see it, and feel it!

I first came across Geeta’s book and then went to meet her in person for a consultation. I can say that coming across her book was one of the most valuable moments in my life because it completely changed how I see myself and the world around me. I was introduced to Ayurveda through Geeta’s book and I find the way she lays the concept and gradually takes the reader into more complex parts of it is outstanding. Geeta’s book never leaves my desk, it is the bible of my life. I refer to it almost every day. I have visited Geeta’s practice several times in the past years. She is very easy to talk to, always prepared and provides easy ayurvedic advice and techniques to follow. I love how Geeta simplifies Ayurveda and makes it accessible and possible for us to apply and benefit from in our daily lives. Thanks to Geeta, I have upgraded my life and I am happy with my health, my personal and professional life, and my overall lifestyle. I can say that I am 99% a better version of myself today compared to before applying Ayurveda.”

“I have followed the lifestyle changes suggested by Geeta in terms of nutrition and self care, pranayama, meditation and rituals and my overall body/mind connection and reactions have visibly changed but all naturally, without any regimented approach.

I feel lightness in the body and much more energy, better eating patterns and reduced hunger. Geeta has a professional but also personal approach, which makes me very comfortable in speaking to her. It is always a very pleasant two way interaction and suggestions and advice that Geeta offers tend to come up as a natural part of the conversation, nothing pre-determined. So I am always sure that those are the best patterns for me to follow.”

“Geeta has a lot of knowledge and I feel her passion and her deep experience of Ayurveda. I found I was able to be completely honest with Geeta and know that everything I say is confidential and non-judgemental. I have a deeper interest in Ayurveda now and would like to study more myself. It is a great way of living meaningfully and joyfully, and it works.

I have followed Geeta’s advice on diet and she gave me some fabulous recipes which inspired me to cook. I practice Yoga and Pranayama more regularly, which helps hugely and helps me to feel grounded.

Geeta’s energy is so vibrant and she has a unique gift to be able to say the right things at the right time, as well as listening with compassion to everything the client brings to their session. I have recommended many clients to Geeta and they have all benefited from her advice and treatment.”

“I came across Geeta at the beginning of April in search of help with my acne, which I have suffered from for over 10 years. I am a 26 years old female working as a pharmacist and have tried every product and topical treatment possible and was really looking for a long term solution for my skin.

The herbal medication recommended by Geeta helped to detoxify and cleanse my system. Over the years I had seen my GP, a homeopath, a nutritionist and spoken to skin specialists. I tried numerous medications and products from antibiotics, topical retinoid, anti-inflammatory gels, herbal supplements, vitamins as well as trying a lactose-free and gluten-free diet! I think I could write a book about how many different things I have tried! Then I came across Geeta online during COVID lockdown.

Prior to my first consultation Geeta gave me the opportunity to complete a form where I was able to document all of the products and dietary changes I had previously tried and we further discussed all the changes that I was making currently.

She took the time to explain the Ayurvedic approach to health that is so different to Western thinking. I understood the 3 different principle energies of the body and how the imbalance results in illnesses occurring. After the second meeting was truly where I had my breakthrough.

Sometimes you have to really hit complete rock bottom and surrender to everything the Universe is bringing you before you reach your answer, including understanding your mindset! Which Geeta helped me realize how this plays the biggest role in it all! She took the time and truly listened to where my mind/emotions were. She provided guidance for my energy type through supplements, where I was able to build a morning till night regimen. Alongside this, we worked on ways to build my mindset.

She helped me understand how the timing of my meals plays a large part. I built upon my daily meditation practice with specific pranayamas, yoga postures and affirmations which helped keep me mentally strong. This was the first practitioner who didn’t say cut out a large part of the food you love! Instead change the timing of it! A great step in this journey was also understanding my trigger foods, which unfortunately was sugar which caused great flare-ups. Initially this was difficult to cut out however once I started seeing improvements, this outweighed those sugar cravings!

I am still progressing on this journey and so grateful for Geeta being my guiding light! As both the internal and external healing continues, I am really thankful for all the improvement I have been able to experience so far! I hope to continue to develop my knowledge further on ayurveda practice and as a healthcare professional hope to one day help patients with these amazing principles too!”

“I was sick and tired of eating in a restrictive way without any joy. Not to mention on the rare occasion when I would venture out from my regimented way of eating I would get painful symptoms. Through following ayurvedic principles for eating and life, I have lost 1 stone (totally unexpected and wasn’t the goal at all) and it made me realise how much extra baggage (physical, mental, emotional) that I was carrying around. I now take so much pleasure in eating and living in my new ayurvedic lifestyle!

Through taking the herbs, my digestion has completely transformed from sluggish, stuck, and often constipated to regular and flowing. What I’ve loved the most about working with Geeta is how everything is personalised. I’ve recommended Geeta to all of my friends and the women that I coach.”

“The full experience was amazing and I am very impressed with Geeta’s knowledge on Ayurveda and her ability to read your body and what treatments can really help. I come most weeks and would recommend Geeta to anyone who wants to experience the power of Ayurveda.”

“I found Geeta very calm and professional. You can tell she knows how to live a balanced and healthy life which gives me great respect for her advice. My husband and son has also been and we are hoping to all use Geeta’s advice in our daily life. To start with I made some small changes and it directly had positive impact on my sleep. The advice was in depth which is of great value. ”

“As I followed the guidance of Geeta’s plan, I visibly noticed the change in my skin, eyes, energy levels and others noticed the difference too, commenting of how much better my appearance became. I also felt that whilst I prepared psychologically for the transition into motherhood, it was vital to also prepare physically. By the time we conceived, I felt more confident that my body was prepared to manage the levels of change bio-chemically as much as it was psychologically. Geeta was able to offer perspectives on all the different aspects, and the detailed written plan for the duration of my pregnancy and suggestions for the post partum stage.”

“I have been seeing Geeta over the past year. Ayurveda has really helped me in a lot of different aspects of my life, mentally and physically. I have a really wonderful connection with Geeta and feel very comfortable with her. The advice on food according to my dosha has helped me a lot as well as her emphasis on routine for more of a mental (and of course physical) balance. Her explanations on how your body and mind are so connected has helped me to understand so much about my own body and what works for me and what doesn’t etc. ”

“After my nasya treatment I had a very deep sleep that night. Geeta spent a long time catching up with me before the treatment and I felt that she used her understanding of my energy and what I needed to deliver the optimum treatment for me. ”

“I had problems with my vision due to eyestrain from computer and iPhone. After few months since I began to fell tension in my eyes, my vision become unclear and unfocused - while reading. I felt frustrated, as I noticed that my vision is deteriorating, and because I could not read more than 5 min at a time, then I needed to rest my eyes. (prior to that I would read for hours without even noticing my body or eyes).

Since I knew a little about Ayurveda and I am optimist to, I decided to give a try to Netra Basti. After 3 sessions which I booked with Geeta, I regained my vision. During 3 weeks as I had appointment weekly, I practiced at home what Geeta has recommended - exercises for the eyes and Nasya. I am happy to have my eyesight as it was before. Again I can read, small print too. Of course from now on I will look after my eyes and definitely I would recommend Geeta and Ayurveda to friends and family. ”

“Geeta is highly professional, welcoming and understanding as well as skilful to establish personalised help. I highly recommend her to anyone wishing to seek help in finding answers to and seeking to improving their health and enhance the positive aspects of life. I found her guidance and insight to the way of living most helpful.

The most important aspect to me is the way Ayurveda looks at the preparation and consumption of food combined with simple exercises of breathing and small, steps towards meditation. And most importantly, everything is presented without pressure and she makes it look easy.”

“Geeta has helped me to understand much more than diet. It’s about making small subtle changes to the way I think and interact that then translate into my day including nutrition. Small changes have made a huge difference. Time for me to think and act in a different way. The consultations are a very calm time. Treatments are another way to connect to myself as well as very relaxing!”

“Until now, I found my experience really useful. Geeta helped me a lot, especially with the head massage. I felt more relax after it and my migraine disappeared. Geeta is fabulous, friendly and make you feel at home. I definitely come back to her for other treatments and I highly recommend her because she use natural elements such as oil and species instead of chemicals one. There is also a good quality between price and time. After the treatment my terrible migraine disappeared. Geeta made my sessions more valuable simply explaining me what type of products she used and how she going to apply them. She stayed with me all the time, feeling me more relax.”

“Very beneficial, comprehensive and interesting. The initial consultation was very thorough and I felt listened to on a number of levels. Geeta is very perceptive and she comes across as an excellent advocate and example of the benefits of incorporating Ayurvedic principles into day to day life. Following the consultation Geeta gave me some recipe sheets which were beautifully designed with inviting pictures of the dishes which helped to motivate me to try them out. The follow up notes were also excellently presented with a lot of information. I also liked the fact that many of the suggestions could easily be incorporated into the long term. I have already had a follow up session and would definitely recommend Geeta to friends and family.I felt listened to and that the time was truly my time which in itself if very nurturing. A space is created in which you invited to explore yourself and any health issues from a different or slightly different perspective. This is helped by the fact that I never felt a session was rushed.”

“It was incredible. I felt physically and spiritually restored. My face was glowing, my body felt limber. I have been coming to Geeta Vara for over a year and I recommend her to everyone I know, whether they’re trying for a baby, wanting to lose weight or have specific pains, physical or emotional. Geeta is utterly authentic and gives of her best every time, sometimes running over if she feels there’s more to talk about or work needed on your body. I am so convinced of Geeta’s deep knowledge and love of her Ayurvedic work that I am scheduling her Ayurvedic dietary consultation. Geeta is so thorough that nothing was missed. I just wish the treatment would never end!”

“Geeta’s goodnight milk blend is what i always wanted ovaltine and cocoa to be and it helps you sleep too!”

“At the beginning of the year I suffered a recurring intestinal complaint, which conventional medicine failed to improve. A relative in the USA had tried Ayurvedic medicine for a parasite complaint and it had worked wonders for them, so I did some research, contacted Geeta and am happy to say that after a very interesting consultation process and massage treatments I have made a huge improvement. Geeta’s expert knowledge and advice and very helpful one to one assessments/sessions have helped me immensely, and I feel that I have made a great contact to help me improve my health holistically moving forwards, as Geeta always has very useful information and advice to help with my new nutritional requirements.”

“I was diagnosed with having too much heat in my body and Geeta was able to recommend cooling food and also told me which food to avoid. By following a ‘pitta-pacifying’ diet I no longer experience a burning sensation in my stomach. Geeta has also helped me to control my stress and disturbed sleeping patterns by demonstrating some simple breathing and meditation techniques to help me relax as well as a course of ayurvedic head and body treatments to release the tension that had built up over time. I would highly recommend Geeta to anyone wanting to improve their diet and lifestyle in a natural way.”

“Thanks again for a wonderful talk by Geeta. Myself and Sandra really enjoyed it again. It is so interesting and could listen to Geeta talk all day. I would certainly recommend a workshop to a friend. The workshop was a very interesting talk and was very clear and Geeta interacted with all the members in the group. Lovely relaxing room with with such nice people. Would certainly be interested in another talk and a breath workshop would be very nice as this can be so powerful.”

“I learnt that there is no need for drastic measures or extreme diets. Instead, changing a few small yet significant things according to my ‘dosha’ have helped rebalance my body gently. ”
