  • Get Back on Track Before Holidays!

    Get Back on Track Before Holidays!

    If you have made “losing weight” as your serious goal, then you deserve a pat on your back!
    At Wellness Haven, our goal is to help, guide and support you in your mission to get your health back on track before the new year is on us. Staying healthy is our area of expertise and guiding you to your success is our mission. Whether you are a local of San Ramon or anywhere in the Bay Area or in any other remote location, we have proven ourselves successful in guiding you to health that lasts.

    How will we support you?

    • We provide a complimentary consultation and evaluation one on one so that we know that we are a good match from both sides.
    • The moment you decide to get our guidance in your weight loss mission, we meet with you, either locally at Wellness Haven or on the phone, for about 90 minutes to get you started with the first week of the “Wellness Haven Nutrition Program – Lower Your Fat.”
      • We make sure that there are no confusions left for you
      • We tell you exactly what to eat, when to eat and how to eat given your own lifestyle. Our goal is not to convert you from a vegetarian/non vegetarian to the opposite. We work with you.
      • We stay with you throughout your weight loss journey. We help you stay on track and hold you accountable in your mission.
      • We guide you through exercising whether you are local or remote.
      • We guide you through stress management, which has a direct impact on weight loss.
      • We stay with you every step of the way in your weigh- loss-journey by enabling you to jump-start your life with motivation and enthusiasm.
      • We measure you or advise you to be measured if you are remote, throughout the program to see results.
      • We take you step by step through the very important cleansing first week and into the weeks ahead where you are cleaning up your eating habits as well as learning stress releasing techniques and exercising.
      • We make sure that you stay on track even after the 12 weeks of the program, as we believe in changing lifestyle and not dieting as a temporary fix.
      • We help you detox and cleanse yourself once a quarter at the very least.
      • We make it FUN!

    What do we need from you?

    • Your intense desire for a healthy body and a healthy mind
    • Your dedication to yourself
    • Your commitment to staying on track

    Do not let this year go by. Make a commitment to yourself. Start the new year with a huge smile on your face.

  • Eat Clean To Lose Excess Fat Weight

    Eat Clean To Lose Excess Fat Weight

    Losing excess body fat weight is quite an art and a skill that all those who carry extra weight, should learn to lead a healthier life. At Wellness Haven, our focus is on a healthy lifestyle that supports weight loss very effectively and in a wholesome manner, rather than quick and temporary weight loss gimmicks that seem to be so prevalent in the world today. We have very effectively taken care of hundreds of students on this weight loss journey whether they are local to San Ramon, like Danville, Dublin, Livermore, Pleasanton, Concord, Walnut Creek, Castro Valley, or any other farther location in the Bay Area like Hayward, San Jose, Cupertino, Pleasant Hill, Lafayette, Foster City, San Francisco or more remote as in outside of Bay Area or even outside US.

    What is Body Fat?

    Fat is one of the essential components of the body. Body is made up of muscle, bones, fat and organs like the brain, liver, kidneys, pancreas and intestines, all of which are necessary for healthy functioning of the body. In 1 pound of fat there is approximately 3,500 calories of stored energy.

    Fat is of 2 types:
    1. Essential Body Fat: It is necessary for body functions and is stored in small amounts in bone marrow, muscles, central nervous system and organs. Essential body fat in men is approximately 3% and in women it is approximately 12 % due to differences in body functions.
    2. Storage Body Fat: It is the fat that accumulates under the skin, around organs and in the muscles and this fat is necessary for the protection of the internal organs from injuries. This storage fat remains approximately the same in both men and women. But when this fat gets stored in excess, it becomes unhealthy and a person is considered overweight.

    What is Body Fat Range?

    Body fat can range from healthy to unhealthy on both sides of the spectrum. Too low or too high are equally unhealthy to maintain normal body functions.  Healthy fat range is depicted in the image on this page. Many women become overwhelmed with home and work responsibilities and let go of their body and become unhealthy. 

    How do we lose excess body fat to gain health? 

    Losing excess body fat weight is very simple. But patience is needed as is the case with anything worthy.

    • Cleanse your body regularly: Detoxing the body of the built up toxins is very much needed.
    • Eat clean: Keeping away from sugar, processed food, fatty food, and foods that create bloating or inflammation in the body.
    • Exercise: Staying flexible, strong, and balanced through yoga and supplementing it with other exercises is essential for a healthy body.
    • Remain hydrated: Keeping the body well hydrated keeps the body away from many physical ailments.
    • Sleep well: Good, quality sleep every night is essential for a healthy body.
    • Surround yourself with positive, productive, constructive, supportive and happy people: Having a positive outlook on life is very much needed to be mentally happy.
    • Breathing exercises and Meditation: Developing a daily habit of setting self time aside for breathing and meditation keeps the mind fit and healthy – mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

    At Wellness Haven we guide you step by step in your journey to good health, whether it is yoga, breathing and meditation or cleansing and clean eating.

     

  • I Am Not Losing Weight!

    I Am Not Losing Weight!

    “I think I am eating healthy. I also walk 2 times a week. I go to the gym and use the treadmill. I attend one zumba class per week. Then why am I not losing weight?!”

    Are you someone who relates to the above? Then it is time to find out what may be going wrong with your lifestyle and re-invent the very way you think about food, exercise and stress management. The following mistakes are very costly:

    1. You are used to eating without attention to nutrition requirements and giving in to temptations when it comes to sweet and salty food, fatty food, and food that should not be consumed on a daily basis.
      – frequent eating out
      – unaware eating at work place
      – not packing food from home for lunch
      – not having enough time to cook wholesome meals
      – grocery shopping on an empty stomach
      – the fridge devoid of ready-to-eat-food when you need it the most; when you are HUNGRY!
      – not meeting protein requirements for the body
      – believing that “if I eat right, I do not need to exercise!”
    2. You are exercising sporadically, when you feel you have time!
      – exercising 1-2 days a week
      – simply working on the external big muscle groups and forgetting that the internal organs and glands that need nurturing with yoga
      – thinking that just treadmill, hiking, biking and jogging will do what is needed for the body
      – believing that “if I exercise I can eat whatever I want!”
    3. You are always stressed, overwhelmed, and impatient!
      – You are stressed with duties and responsibilities around home and work place.
      – You have succeeded in demoralizing yourself and quit on health even before taking any action about it.
      – You have forgotten how many years it took you to get to the state you are in currently and are impatient to lose all the extra weight immediately.

    It is time you started really taking care of yourself. It is time to understand that it will not happen overnight, but success is inevitable if you follow expert guidance from someone who believes in you and your success, someone who has done it herself, someone who has helped hundreds of others in a similar situation.

    All it takes is:

    • Desire to become healthy
    • A powerful intention of making it happen for yourself
    • Commitment and Discipline in yourself
    • Faith in the self
    • Trust in your Coach

    At Wellness Haven we are ready for you and to ensure that you learn and experience a healthy lifestyle. We help women who want to be helped.

     

  • I Finally Lost Weight!

    I Finally Lost Weight!

    “I Finally Did It!”

    Yes that is what many of our Nutrition Students who joined “Wellness Haven 12 Week Nutrition Program – Lower Your Fat and Lose Inches and Pounds” are saying!

    Beautiful words from one of our newer Nutrition students, who joined in “Wellness Haven 12 Week Nutrition Program – Lower Your Fat and Lose Inches and Pounds” just 3 weeks ago. See what she has to say after never able to drop weight in spite of spending thousands on many programs before!:

    “Happy Sunday Umang, Just wanted to keep you posted. After being stuck for a week I lost 2 lb. The week I didn’t loose any weight is the week I couldn’t come for my visit. I seriously think it’s your kind aura genuinely coming from the bottom of your heart was what’s needed for me to be motivate. My biggest concern is that I can’t fail you since you put so much passion and treat each of us like your own. My diet is flowing so smoothly with you after many failed attempts and thousands of dollars spent. Thank you so much for making the difference in so many peoples life. FYI I lost 8 lb and going.”

  • I Want To Lose Weight!

    I Want To Lose Weight!

    Are you someone who starts each year saying, “I want to lose weight?” and yet remain unsuccessful?

    You have come to the right place. At Wellness Haven, we are very successful at transforming the very way you think about health, nutrition, what you should eat and when and how!

    Read below to see what Catherine had to say after she had already gone through 4 different weight loss programs! She joined ours because she trusted us and had faith seeing how we educate our students in everything we do at Wellness Haven, and joined our unlimited package with all our programs: Nutrition, Yoga, Breathing and Meditation.

    “Dear Umang,
    This is my journey. I am a diabetic who had high cholesterol.
    I started Umang’s Wellness Haven Yoga middle of September, 2014. I had mentioned to my husband that I wanted to join a yoga studio because I disliked going to the gym; it was so impersonal – I was one of seventy students in the yoga class. People lined up, attended and then left!
    My husband found Umang’s Wellness Haven. I came for 2 weeks. I felt I found my place. Umang makes us feel like home. It is most welcoming and nurturing haven.
    After a month of Umang’s Yoga, I wanted to try her Nutrition program and Meditation and Breathing. Even though I paid for everything because I had bought her 3 months unlimited package with all her programs (yoga, Breathing, Meditation and Nutrition), I kept putting off the nutrition. Umang had said it was alright, I will start when I was ready. I finally started January 12, 2015.
    After completing the 12 week plan, my diabetic hemoglobin A1C was 5.8, it was 11 before. My cholesterol used to be 210 and had dropped 102 points to 108. My endocrinologist was shocked and I told her how I did it with Umang’s help.
    I have lost over 25 pounds since I joined Umang’s Wellness Haven. I haven’t weighed this in over 32 years since my youngest was born! My body fat went down 5% (41 to 36). I have lost 1.4″ in my upper arms (13.5 to 12.1), 3″ in my waist (38.5 to 35.5), 2.2″ in my hips (43.4 to 41.2), 2.8″ in my thighs (22 to 19.2), .5″ in my calves (14.5 to 14). In September I was a size 14. Now I am size 8. This has surpassed all my expectations! I feel wonderful and happy. That is all I can ask for.
    I enjoy coming to yoga. I love the feeling after attending Umang’s class. It is euphoria! Thank you Umang for helping me in my journey. I appreciate your coaching and friendship.Thank you. Sincerely, Catherine Hickman.”

    June 1 is right around the corner and Wellness Haven is ready to begin yet another group in our thriving “12 Week Wellness Haven Nutrition Program – Lower Your Fat!”
    Join us and start your summer off in the best possible manner and then continue even after summer at no extra charge, for once in our program you continue to detox with us every quarter!

    Many of us at Wellness Haven are in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th weeks of the Wellness Haven Nutrition Program – Lower Your Fat and all of us are doing very well.
    “My husband told me I have lost the 2nd tire around my belly”
    “My son told me I have lost my 2nd chin!”
    “I have learned a new way of living and I do not miss my old one!”
    “I cant believe this is so practical”
    We get to hear such exciting results on a daily basis.
    We all have goals for health and we all are well on our way for we have made a pact with ourselves that when it comes to health we will let NOTHING stand in our way!
    Always ask yourself, “Why am I letting external things come in the way of my desire to be healthier, slimmer and more confident about myself?”
    You will find that these external barriers are simply excuses – a result of some form of fear – and nothing else. You deserve to be healthy. You deserve to look radiant. You deserve to lose the unnecessary extra fat that got stored due to neglect over the years. You deserve to get your body back in shape. You deserve to eradicate the health issues that have infested your body due to unaware eating habits. You deserve to treat your body like the temple it is meant to be.
    Reach out today and become a part of our ever growing community of health conscious people who are shedding the extra weight, who are smiling for they never thought it was possible.
    There is no other program out there that gives you the amount of quality time we give you one on one and in a group and whichever way suits your needs like we do. Yes we care like no one else does! Your success means even more to us than you yourself, for in your success lies our success!
    There is plenty of information on the internet. There are unlimited programs all over! Then why isn’t everyone in good shape? Because of lack of commitment, time, energy that goes into making dreams come true! We make it happen for you – whether it is health, your realization of your passions and dreams or eradication of stress!
