Testimonials

Thoughts + praise from Ayurvedic Clients

“I’d like to personally tell you how much I have loved our time. After our last sessions I took time to introspect. And, you are absolutely right – we have held ourselves back because of all the “shoulds” and living well enough because of all the “needs & wants”. It is solely because of your guidance that I have been able to tune deep into my intuition and listen to the 3 voices that are telling me “Stop, slow down & give yourself a break”. I have ignored these voices and have over filled my plate. For what? All the “shoulds”? No more. No more ignoring my inner voices, no more ignoring my intuition, and no more giving in to unhealthy impulses that do more damage. Thanks to you I’m making consistently good decisions about what my body & mind need. I’ve taken a couple of things off my overfilled “plate” to make space for what nourishes me.

Again, thank you so very much Lentine. I am already starting to feel much better.”

“I’m so glad I took the plunge and signed for a new client package. It’s been such an amazing shift to go from thinking I was doing all the “right” things (eating fruit + veg, mostly cooking from scratch, and avoiding processed foods) but feeling like my body was never getting quite what it needed, to that deep change over the last three months. It’s almost like my body can relax and finally go “brain, you got this now!”

– Theodora, Iron-distance triathlete


“Every morning my first thought questioned when I would be able to go back to bed.  Years of intense training, grief, travel, and well, life, had caught up to me, and then proceeded to flatten me. Deep exhaustion, lots of random sickness, trouble training consistently. I thought I would need at least a year to come back to some sort of normalcy.  Lentine reinflated me. There are no gimmicks with her work. No expensive supplements or tasteless powders or strict diets. Instead, it’s nurturing delicious food, attainable centering morning routines, and a rewrite of the destructive internal thought tracks.  The work, and the work you have to do in return, encompasses all parts of being a human. She has taught me to know myself and what I need. Though I still ask her questions, mostly because she’s just one of those radiant people you want to interact with as much as possible, I’ve learned how to navigate the effects of stress and travel and work on my own. She could help you become independently healthy and whole too, or more likely you’ll be like me and continue to pay her to be my friend…I mean Ayurvedic coach, nutritionist, and therapist. Her work has been a tremendous gift.”

As a 39 year old male, you wouldn’t think I would develop an aversion to “real” food. I began to rely heavily on all the wrong products to get me through my rides, and fuel my recovery. Admittedly, I was often scared to real food, fearing the nutrients were not what I really needed. Since becoming a member, and really trying to understand your (and Allen Lim’s) approach to real food, it has been a real game changer. Physically, not much has changed, which is great. Mentally, I am much more relaxed, and I have come to realize I won’t gain weight, lose all my riding performance, ect, eating real food, that actually tastes great.

I remember talking about putting the final nail in the coffin re: disordered eating patterns, and reflecting on the past couple months, I think it’s safe to say we achieved that!!! Words can’t express how much that means to me to feel free from the harmful thoughts and patterns that gnawed at me for the better part of the past decade. I feel at ease with food these days and, the best part, I am able to let it go on days where I maybe overate for emotional comfort or got a little snacky when the anxiety was high. What I can really feel now is a sense of contentment knowing that “good” days and “bad” days don’t really exist anymore — I can look at life from the wider view of all choices (food and otherwise) having the ability to be supportive and healthy.  I have more energy and feel even more bliss whenever I get out and move my body. It’s a real gift that I hope to continue nurturing for myself and for others.

Nutrition and wellness can feel daunting these days — often riddled with complex protocols or the latest fads and biohacks. Fortunately the experience of working with Lentine is far more fun, delicious, and effective! Lentine provides a manageable introduction into the practices of Ayurveda and adapts them to your modern lifestyle. Some of the greatest teachers are those who provide thoughtful framing and then let the student do the driving. This experience felt very similar: Lentine shares insightful and right-sized orientation to Ayurveda, and with this knowledge in hand, you’re empowered to make food and lifestyle decisions in alignment with your own inner wisdom and unique needs. These sessions really pack a punch: in three manageable meetings, you can learn personalized skills and practices that will bolster you in all facets of life!

“I’m so glad I took this leap and reached out to Lentine for her guidance. Within the first few minutes Lentine made me feel comfortable, and made sure she understood my situation well. She gave me a detailed analysis & simple recommendations to not overwhelm me. She helped me fill in the gaps I had in my mind about what I thought I needed vs what I actually need. This was by far a lovely experience for me, and I’m going to cherish this and the lessons I’ve learnt forever. I will be coming back to Lentine soon. She is a treasure trove of knowledge, an abundance of kindness, and exactly what I need even when I don’t. I have loved my time with Lentine. I feel fortunate to have met her.

Thank you Lentine, for everything.”

“I just want to say how much  I *loved* working with you, and how amazing it is to now feel so much more centred on a day-to-day basis. I came hoping to retrieve some of my previous energy levels that were taken away by the lingering effects of long covid, and I came away with so much more than that.”

“My experience with Lentine was awesome! She helped me better understand fueling as an athlete while minding my overall health and balance through an Ayurvedic lens. I am constantly inspired by Lentine’s own lifestyle and way of being, and to have time with her one-on-one was so helpful. She helped me prepare for my first ever marathon, and most importantly, she made me feel confident and supported in my choices regarding fueling, eating on a daily basis, and building a supportive morning routine. My goals in booking these consultations were to work through lingering disordered eating patterns, as well as get a fresh perspective on how to incorporate Ayurveda as an athlete (two things I’d been told were not compatible). Lentine shared valuable insights, tangible practices (mantras and morning routines), and bits of her own personal experience that helped me to (I think it’s safe to say this now) FINALLY break free from addictive eating patterns and old, harmful beliefs about my body and food choices. I have fallen back in love with movement, building strength, and expanding my endurance capacity — this time out of love and appreciation for all my body can do! I am truly, truly grateful for Lentine’s guidance, and I look forward to checking in with her periodically as my life/athletic pursuits continue to progress. Oh and her recipes are DOPE! Thank you so incredibly much, Lentine!”

“Where do I even begin? What first drew me to working with Lentine was her background as an athlete and cyclist which – imposter-syndrome be damned – I consider myself too. I’ve wanted so badly to learn about Ayurveda but through the lense of someone who knows what balancing a busy work load with active pursuits is like. Upon our first meeting I instantly felt so welcomed by Lentine’s warmth and genuine desire to get down to the nitty gritty of my concerns. Although I was stubborn to take on some change, she was never judgmental and accepted my journey in learning what works best for me. I feel like I’ve come a long way in a ~relatively~ short amount of time and I think the Ayurveda party is just getting started for me. Lentine gave me excellent building blocks that I will cherish for a long time. I now feel more in-tune with my body and mind, and that’s a special gift that I couldn’t be more thankful for. Here’s to learning and growing!”
