First thing I would like to mention here is Tekhiyah made me feel comfortable throughout my all coaching sessions.  She always focused on what I want to achieve in the session.    I really appreciate her being calm and having a supportive nature.  All the coaching sessions with her helped me move forward and do things which I have been thinking about a lot...but never took any action steps to sort out. I would love to be coached by her whenever I am stuck…and I would recommend her as a very supportive, kind and understanding coach to anyone who believes in moving forward positively in their life. Thanks a lot for being there for me Tekhiyah. I wish u all the best Tekhiyah for your wonderful career as a coach.

I am now focussed and energized to pursue my life’s dreams, thanks to Tekhiyah.  She has helped me fine tune the steps needed to be taken to be successful in my endeavours.  I have been able to put more order and structure to my restaurant in a relatively short space of time so that I can travel and pursue my music career.  I am thankful to have had her as my coach.  She introduced critical thinking which led me to dig more deeply into what I wanted to accomplish in life beyond just my music career.  I am determined to be successful and financially free, and I now have the keys I needed to do so.  The best part about it is that she made me understand that I always had the answers.

This coaching experience has been a very positive and enlightening experience for me. As a result of the coaching I received, I am well on the road to achieving my major goal and have the tools in place to focus on attaining my remaining goals in due course. At a deeper level, the coaching experience has helped me fully realise that I possess the solutions to my own dilemmas. This realisation is for me both self-empowering and exhilarating. I am thankful for the services of a skilled coach to guide me further along the road to self discovery and to support me in dealing with the many obstacles encountered along the way.

During the coaching sessions, Tekhiyah allowed me space to think/reflect, challenged me appropriately and ensured I remain motivated and committed to my goals and the options I came up with. One of the coaching sessions I had around values and beliefs was particularly effective as it enabled me to reflect on my values and re-assess if my goals were in line with those or if I was going through every day motions.  I found Tekhiyah to be a good listener, patient, and ensured that I was committed to following through the options I identified.  Overall, I found the sessions beneficial and they steered me towards achieving the goals I wanted to work on.

The coaching experience that I enjoyed was an eye-opener. I was made aware of my intrinsic values and goals in a way that I had not been previously aware of on my own. It opened my mind up to what “I” really thought. I was able to focus more through speaking my thoughts out loud and being encouraged to process my options. It was a good feeling. Tekhiyah's coaching technique has truly netted huge results. In an extremely short time I was able to  throw off years of conditioned thinking after a brief yet thorough investigation of  my own innate beliefs. This was wholly liberating and amazingly empowering, leaving me feeling lighter than I have felt in months. I was more purposeful and focused than I have been in as long. I am a convert.

I have had 6 coaching session with Tekhiyah, face to face, and over the telephone. I had no idea about coaching before and what would be achieved, but I can honestly say having these sessions has changed my attitude towards my life; helping me see things in an order, mainly concentrating on what I would like to achieve, and how all these things made me feel. Tekhiyah made me feel like every negative could be changed to produce a positive, and the more I felt positive, the stronger and happier I’ve felt, feeling healthier even.  I know I can achieve and overcome obstacles and actually carrying out things I wanted to do/say, and have conviction in my beliefs. Each session made me look at myself, to see I am a good person, I am intelligent and I have achieved so much in life already, but most importantly it made me realise that I can continue to achieve.

Tekhiyah...WOW is all that I can say! It has been a wonderful Yah-filled Wellness day... I just want to say “Todah Robah” (thank you very much) for all of your help! You are truly a miracle worker. I pray that Choose Life and Wellness continues to do great things... I love you... and when I return you will see a brand-new me...with all your help! You have inspired me to continue to pursue my dreams. You have a very special place in my heart. Hallelu Yah. With love,

My experience at CL & W was excellent! I am doing very, very well! I felt comfortable and at home, the young ladies were quite professional and went above and beyond their call of duty. I visited mainly because I wanted to lose some weight. In addition to that, I had a very irregular menstrual cycle which I was hoping might be regulated if I managed to take control of my body.
I did a colon irrigation and began a detox diet, after which I carefully began to follow all the advice I had received at CLW. I was also encouraged to do my own research, and learn more about my body. I became very aware of my own body, all it's functions, and cycles and needs. I began to read more and pay closer attention to my diet, my lifestyle in general. I began a regular exercise program with a trainer, which I still have 4 days a week. I have eliminated all dairy products from my diet, all caffeine, all sugar, and all meat except fish. I am in the process of phasing fish out of my diet as well. I have come a long way! And I am very excited to say that I did reach my weight loss goal! 140 lbs! I hope what I have shared is of benefit to you. Thanks for including me in your guest book! Be blessed!

My first encounter with Choose Life and Wellness was after my second child. I had gained alot of weight and because of my height it was causing problems with my back. I had to make changes to my way of eating to get healthy. I had my first colon irrigation and from there my eating habits changed. I lost 20 pounds of the baby weight and I felt more energised and my skin cleared up so much. I even saw a great improvement in my bowel movements which was also a problem. I would recommend the wellness cottage to anyone who needs an improvement on health. I am feeling GREAT.

I got the colon cleanse at your facility and i did loose a few pounds. I felt lite as a feather, healthy and confident in myself, I am over due another one to be honest. Before I got the cleanse i felt heavy, stuffed, gassy at times, and stressed. I couldn't be bothered with the world, and i started to feel tired as well. I had a little chat once with a blessed friend of mine, and that's when i saw the light. I don't always eat right and I don't always exercise either, but every now and again I treat my body in that special way. I've learned to listen to my body. I am still learning, and changing in a healthy and spiritual way. After getting home from receiving a cleanse or massage, I always top it of by listening calm therapeutic instrumentals to ease my mind and relax in sleep mode. I feel brand new when I awake, thanks to Tekhiyah.

Shalom! Yah Khai!
Testify!! Let me start by saying I have been treated twice at Choose Life and Wellness. On the first occasion I had a colema. Before I had this colema, I’d heard testimonies from others about how they were able to think much clearer and how energized they felt. I can say that for me, I definitely felt like a load was lifted off my shoulders...and literally I did let go of a lot of load! I was able to think much more clearly, felt peaceful, and at that time I was going through some family issues which were causing more stress than was needed, and the simple act of removing waste and toxins from my body caused me to take steps to remove other things that were toxic to my life. Most recently, about 1 week ago I had my first therapeutic body massage done at Choose Life and Wellness. I can feel it now just talking about it...lol. I remember waiting for the therapist to start the massage, but first feeling the palms of her hands on the heels of my feet...I felt energy from her hands! That was a highlight for me. My immediate thought was 'this is different and nice!' My massage was relaxing, so relaxing that I felt as if I was melting into the bed. My main concern were my shoulders and the base of my neck because the muscles there were so tight. All I can say is that she worked a miracle on my neck. I won't take you through my whole session, but at the end whatever she did worked because I could literally feel my pores all over my body breathing, a feeling like oxygen was coming into my body through my pores. I felt more balanced and grounded, but at the same time felt like I was floating...hmm don't ask me to explain....lol How could I forget..at the end of my session it started to rain...that's therapy for you! That was the ice cream on top of my pudding! Thank you very much.

My experience at C.L.W. started with a full body massage, which was awesome, the therapy was tuned into my needs. I was left feeling relaxed, calm and at peace. Shortly after I then began a series of colon irrigations and changed to a plant-based diet; I lost pounds after every session! I had some one-on-one sessions with Tekhiyah too and all of this has brought about an awareness and a consciousness of self. I have always had a relationship with my body and can hear when it talks to me and this has become stronger; I am stronger. I am grateful and thankful to Tekhiyah for strengthening my foundation for future growth and unlimited progress; for your patience and generosity of spirit that has shone undiminished throughout and continues to shine. Love and Blessings,

Shalom,
Ahh....The Introspective Healing Journey! During my recent trip to Antigua, I visited the Choose Life & Wellness Cottage. After speaking with the Tekhiyah- the owner -about my life, she suggested I go on the JOURNEY. It was by far the most liberating experience I have ever had. For many years, I carried a lot of pain, resentment and self-loathing for things that happened to me in my childhood. On the JOURNEY, I was able to honestly address those issues and bring closure to that chapter in my life -making peace with those whom had harmed me, forgiving them and myself. Debbie, who took me on the JOURNEY, was an incredible spirit! I felt at ease, safe and secure in her presence. The sound of her voice was soothing and reassuring as I went to the most painful areas of my life and released hurts that were so deep that I know they could not have been reached any other way. The reason I know this is because I've tried everything else! Thank you to Tekhiyah for her knowledge and expertise in healing of the mind, body and spirit and Choose Life & Wellness for being a garden of serenity giving me just what I'd been searching for all of my adult life......peace of mind. The atmosphere is peacful and inviting. Kudos to Tekhiyah and Choose Life Wellness Cottage!!! I enjoyed the most amazing full body massage I've ever had....Tekhiyah worked her magic and left me feeling rejuvenated and elevated spiritually! Love,

Thank you for making the seminars accessible. As we all know, we are living in some tough times financially, and people only have money for the basics, but by you offering the seminars for free is an investment opportunity of a lifetime. More persons should have taken advantage of such an opportunity, and for those who didn't, they missed something. Indeed I am grateful for the information I gleaned at these seminars. I have a stronger resolve to pursue a healthier lifestyle through nutrition. As the old saying goes, " an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure," so indeed I am encouraged to eat my way to not just good but excellent health through the principles I learnt at the seminars. I am greatly looking forward to the nutrition workshop, where I can learn how to prepare some of these dishes. I have tried some for myself at the sWholefood Restaurant and I was very impressed with what I tasted - simple delicious. So learning how to make some of these dishes for myself will surely enhance my mealtime tremendously.  Once again, thank you for everything, and may God bless you richly.Nicole James, Antigua

I attended the “Choose Life & Wellness” Vegan workshop mainly as a means of expanding the limited diet I had devised for myself and had been living on for several years. It is important for me to say that prior to attending the course, I considered myself to be in good health and reasonably fit; however, I nevertheless had concerns about the fact that some of my finger nails had become brittle and prone to frequent splitting. This (rightly or wrongly) I had attributed to the low to nil fat diet which I had devised for myself and so when I saw the advertisement for cooking for vegans, I promptly enquired and subsequently enrolled. So what did I gain from this workshop? For a start I learned that fat was an important ingredient for a healthy diet also that the range of foods available to vegans was much greater than I had envisaged. Consequently, I now employ healthy fats in my diet and although my nails are not completely cured, many of the cracks have disappeared and they look much healthier. In addition to the foregoing, I feel much more confident to experiment with various foods and have considerably expanded the range of foods I prepare and consume. I have pleasure in recommending the Choose Life and Wellness to anyone who feels the need to improve his or her diet.

Tekhiyah, I so much enjoyed reading your [Nourishing the Soul] article in the July/August [2010] issue of this magazine. The Healability article is right on time!!! You are so right-this is God’s original diet for us!!

The first thing that I noticed at the workshop was the participants all had a very happy disposition. I not only enjoyed the people, I learned a lot; Thank you, Tekhiyah, for having such a great idea. I gradually began to apply what I learned at my workplace and in my life changing my diet avoiding all meats and fish. Based on what we learned, I implemented a vegan food day once-a-week for my co-workers which they really enjoyed. We also held a vegan food demonstration for Virgin Atlantic, Barbados. As for me, after taking the Nutrition Workshop, my belly has gone! My blood pressure is down! My cholesterol is down! My headaches are gone! All within a few months! Now I effortlessly tell everybody, it was the meat!

Visiting for the first time, I received a lot of information that was not clear to me before and I’ve learned a lot through video and [orientation] speech. For me, it was a good experience because I was unaware of this type of natural technology and what it could do for the body. After completing my first session, I felt amazing. Now I am hungry but I don’t feel all stuffed up and bloated, it’s a real relief! It is very amazing what water and a little massage of the stomach can do... I look forward to my next session soon. It was great and I’m feeling free and confident.

The first thing that struck me was the atmosphere of peace and serenity which caused an instant feeling of well-being. I found Tekhiyah to be very informative about the body and its general connection to the food we eat. The colonic was again done in very peaceful and serene surroundings, not to forget to mention very clean, relaxing and comfortable. At the end of it all I felt refreshed and prepared to learn a change of lifestyle for at least 10-days...who knows may be longer.

The first time I visited Tekhiyah I was scared; not sure what to expect. As she began to explain, I began to feel a bit more comfortable. During the actual cleansing process I did feel a bit of pain but upon completion I lost 4 inches off my waist and felt so much lighter and very relaxed. I was gradually changing my eating habits based on information Tekhiyah shared with me but attending the workshop made such a difference! I was excited to learn from Tekhiyah about how to make vegan dishes and since changing my eating habits I have lost around 20lbs and counting! I’ve experienced fewer headaches as I’ve change my eating habits along the way and my menstrual cramps have been less severe and are now normal. At the end of a hectic workday I still have so much energy... It is amazing me how much better I feel and how much more energy I have.

What a wonderful and enlightening experience; a very personal and heart-filled day of cleansing and massage. I was able to unlock one of the many doors keeping me from reaching my full potential with regard to my family relationships. Thank You, Tekhiyah.
