"Your experience shines so brightly in this class and I so appreciate it/you!"

"I just spent two hours on the Joyful Belly website, just looking around and LEARNING. Have you all seen what is offered to us, just free information given in easy to understand language??!! I have referred every one of my family, friends and clients to this site. I am overwhelmed with gratitude, John Joseph Immel. And I just cannot imagine having all this knowledge at my fingertips. Thank you!"

"Oh wow, so many things about this course inspire me, and my family! Just simply the privilege of acquiring such deep knowledge of this science is a huge inspiration. I am certainly inspired to continue the journey beyond AHC as well. This has been a terrific start. I'm enjoying all of it. I just need to balance my Pitta (and Vata) sometimes because I love reading all things Ayurveda and listening to podcasts too (daily), on top of the course materials! I would really love to go for a PhD. "

"After listening to the Enzyme Deficiencies lecture I made up the banana, lime and coconut water smoothie for my elderly client who is always complaining about dry mouth. Her doctors have tried prescribing her everything under the sun. She reported today that she LOVES the smoothie and how much it's helping her mouth! THANK YOU John Joseph Immel for sharing your knowledge and this course! I cringe at the stuff they have her taking for her digestive issues and she's so frustrated because nothing is helping her."

"John,

I've made some great friends and connections through this program. It has been a great way to bring people together from all walks of life and areas of the world!

Thanks so much!

Lisa"

"A quick note about this fun assignment of buddy consultation! I learned as much about my knowledge and delivery as I learned about my student buddy. It was powerful and we are going forward with another session in two weeks. It was powerful to see how her connect the dots and feel empowered to make some new shifts as a journey for feeling better."

"All the instructors are sooo responsive and helpful in this program. They really listen to the students suggestions and very graciously and thoughtfully always find a way to achieve the needs of the students. Thanks so much!"

"Joyful belly is a treasure trove of information and resources to get you started on healthy eating and bring your body to balance, even better if you work alongside an Ayurvedic doctor. John is a very kind and attentive teacher, he makes himself available to address students' concerns via Telegram though he has a busy schedule."

"I ate salads every day until I took this class. That�s when I totally stopped until now in summer and swtiched to soups which were literally HEAVEN for my mind and body. I really never connected the seasons with my eating. I thought seasonal eating was just a marketing catch phrase used by high end restuarants to charge more. Lol"

"My diet is completely changed, I�ve lost 35#, I have a much healthier view of life and my place in it.."

"I have really loved my experience in this program and have learned so much that I can take with me anywhere. I feel honored to have been a part of this program and there are so many amazing practitioners and aspiring practitioners here. I'm really excited for more learning! John, you have really brought heart and meaning to ayurveda in this program. It shows that you really love it and care."

"I am so glad I finally bit the bullet and did the MID course. I have been wanting to deepen my understanding of Ayurveda for years but decided to do a 2-year course in Nutrition Science & Practice first. Boy that was a mistake! It was only after completing the MID course, that I feel truly confident that I can support any client in improving their health, even those with a very complex medical history, with the very simple yet highly effective Ayurvedic principles and practices I learned during this course."

"I loved the course, especially the development of felt senses, practical experiences offered, and herbal remedies. I was amazed by my experiences. John, you have a fabulous way of getting folks like me to think differently and I am deeply grateful for what I have learned from you."

"Yes! I throughly enjoyed the Ayurveda Workshop and look forward to more. The material was relevant and comprehensive to my goals. I found the material concrete and practical. I think you are skilled and informative regarding Ayurvedic teachings. I am thankful to have people like yourself commited to helping and teacing this fine medicine. I have already pasted the information to others to come to learn more. Thank you and we will meet again..."

"I am enjoying my new awareness with my studies. My husband who is supportive and skeptical in many ways told me that I look more \"vibrant\" in his words than ever in our 21 years together.

I feel like I am bursting with bodily awakening. This is so powerful!

At this time of year, I want to share my gratitude for being a part of this cohort and transformative education!"

"I've had some realizations during these past few consultations about how transforming this program has been for me. My gratitude is eternal and I thank not only Joyful Belly, but all of YOU who made this experience such a personal one without ever having met you."

"I just wanted to personally thank both of you for the awesome program you guys put on and for the fantastic information you've provided. This program was above and beyond what I expected and opened my eyes to a whole new world of medicine, I still consider myself a beginner in this field but wanted to thank you both for all that you've done!"
