Hear from our students and graduates

“I ended up saving my own life with the help and guidance of the most amazing teacher, Liana Shanti and her 66 Day Health Mastery Program from HMI Nutrition School.

I healed myself from type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, lifelong migraines, PCOS (got my period back after irregular and non-existent for years), lifelong IBS, IBD (microscopic colitis), healed my psoriasis and a severely weakened immune system from a flu-shot injury, GERD, thinning hair/hair loss, lost 40 lbs that I kept off for several years. I did all of this very quickly…like in a matter of months on a whole-foods, plant-based, gluten-free diet.

Thank you so much Liana Shanti for creating this life-saving and life-changing program.”

“When I found HMI I knew this was where I was going to find the answers I had been in search of for many years. HMI made sense scientifically, resonated with every cell in my body and made things clear and easy to understand. 

HMI showed me that nutrition can be broken down in simple terms even though our bodies are complex and are very different from individual to individual.  I had so many aha moments while going through HMI. I want to share this info with others because it is seriously life changing on so many levels. 

I feel everyone should take the HMI Nutrition School course even if it is just for their own knowledge and understanding.  The material and the way it is presented are truly invaluable.”

“I joined HMI because I was overweight, sick, and a life-long sugar addict that caused me to be pre-diabetic. My doctor told me that I had to change the way I ate or I would have to be on medication the rest of my life. That's when I turned to HMI and completely changed my eating for the better. HMI literally saved my life. I no longer have PCOS, depression, fatigue, hyperthyroidism, fatty liver or Pre-Diabetes. ”

“I have always wanted to increase my knowledge and expertise with Plantbased/vegan nutrition.

With HMI my desires have come to fruition and I feel like all coaches and trainers within the fitness community should go through this program as a way to be well rounded.”

“I am so grateful to have found my way to Health Mastery Institute. This is my second Health & Wellness Coaching Program/Certification.

My first program (IIN) gave me a broad knowledge of health and wellness and opened many doors to explore. This lead to 5 years more years of exploring on my own and taking in a vast amount of information. I made my best effort to assimilate all of it but the truth is, it became overwhelming.

Then, I was lead to HMI. This program has taken everything I have already learned and has filled in all of the gaps and wrapped all the knowledge up into a beautiful package that I am able to implement into my life, my family’s life and into the life of anyone who is interested in finding true health.

I have battled and over come rheumatoid arthritis. HMI gave me the knowledge, the confidence and the tools to get myself into remission without any of the medications.”

“Before HMI I was a walking zombie. I was experiencing horrible digestive pains, chronic fatigue, brain fog, amenorrhea, depression, anxiety, constant joint pain, and numbness/ weakness in my left leg.

I decided to study at HMI after seeing so many testimonies of people who had completely healed from diseases and symptoms much worse than mine. I knew I could heal myself and then help others do the same!

I started my own healing journey with HMI’s 66 Day Health Mastery Program. This program helped me heal ALL of my symptoms, addressed many of my emotional attachments to food, introduced me to the world of juicing, and taught me how to transition to and maintain a plant-based way of eating. 

I love sharing my passion for juicing and the healing power of a plant-based diet with everyone I meet! It is an absolute joy to help others learn how to juice or walk them through how to transition to a plant based diet and start to heal their bodies from the inside out.”

“Via HMI and individual work with Liana, I have recovered from 4 autoimmune disorders, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue.  I no longer use any assistive devices to walk, have flushed my system of the damage of being on 30 some meds, including 4-5 IV’s weekly.

I am excited to share that no matter how sick you are, there is HOPE and that with proper nutrition, supplements, changes in your thinking and a lot of healing, improved health and wellness is achievable.

I have enjoyed taking all I have learned and sharing it with others via individual health coaching with clients in my mental health business and groups. 

For about four years, I mainly focused on autoimmune clients.  Recently, I have branched out integrating the nutrition side with spiritual coaching and mental health. 

Truthfully, I use all of Liana’s programs with clients in some way daily. I love integrating body, mind, and spirit into the work I do with my clients.”

“I live in Spain, I work with clients in Spanish, Swedish or English. When I found Liana's programs I was in a constant war with my body, always dieting, suffering bulimia and hating my body. My heath was starting to show the consequences of all this struggle.

I followed the 66 Mastery program and afterwards Candida cleanse. My life changed after this great program, I recovered my vitality and my lifeforce.

I decided to go deeper in my nutrition and health knowledge and became a Health Coach thanks to The HMI Nutrition School program.

And after almost 20 years working as an unhappy industrial engineer, I quit my job and started Begreenchica, my own company of Health Coaching, Health retreats and health Cooking classes.”

"I have officially maintained a 140 pound weight loss for four years now. That's almost half of my former self. I've also healed from PCOS, depression, acid reflux, chronic migraines, pain and who knows what else was on the way.

I was overweight/obese from a very young age (8 or so), and my whole life revolved around weight loss and my weight. Literally my whole life.

Any time my mind starts complaining or telling me I can't do this or that, I remember that I've already accomplished what was my entire life's mission, so everything else is just a bonus. Oh, and that I can do anything!"

“I decided to join HMI because it is a natural extension of my core beliefs. I have always believed that food is powerful - it can either heal us or it can leave us not feeling our best.

For most of my life I knew that it was important to eat right and exercise, but I never knew how to put it all together to truly thrive.

After guessing and sometimes feeling better than others, making good food choices and at times making poor food choices, gaining and losing weight, having a couple of kids, facing multiple health challenges that included a mental health crisis, six surgeries in four years and dragging myself through my days by swallowing multiple prescription and OTC pills (thinking that they were necessary to just survive) but not really feeling like I was thriving, I broke free.

It feels so awesome to no longer wake up and feel like I couldn't wait to go back to sleep just to escape the physical, mental and emotional pain of barely existing.

What I had been doing was not working and after many years of guessing what to eat and what to do to feel my best, I discovered HMI and found it to be the best, most complete road map to thriving and living my best life.”

“I chose to join HMI, finally choosing something that I truly wanted to do.

I wasn't sure how it would work out with having a newborn, self doubt, finances, but I wasn't going to choose excuses anymore. And I did it and I'm so grateful I took that leap of self love, it has only continued to snowball.

I feel empowered with all this knowledge and flowing with passion to serve women and their families.”

“This was the most educational program in my life and I'm so inspired and ready to help others! Moving into business focus now!!

This program is like no other, especially one that takes you into the depths of yourself first. One major component in holistic nutrition was learning about detoxification. I thought I actually had some knowledge regarding detox but I found that what I thought I "knew" had barely scratched the surface.

What I've experienced in my healing was something I longed for but never really knew it was possible until I felt it within every fiber of my being.

I wake up with gratitude every day for where I am and continue to learn more about myself in all areas daily.

Yesterday it happened, I finally had the satisfaction of handing in my final assignment and practicum to our Director of Admissions!! I have never experienced that level of learning in my entire life and it felt amazing to complete it!!"

“I chose to enroll with HMI because it is “the world’s only plant-based nutrition school.” Knowing the power of plants over all other foods, it didn’t make sense for me to choose any other nutrition school.

While I have many tools at my disposal as a PT, I felt my toolbag was still incomplete.

Knowing that the body cannot heal itself nearly as well nor as fully as when its nutritional needs are being appropriately met, I needed to learn more about nutrition in order to become the more holistic practitioner that I want to be.

After all, nutrition is the very foundation for health.”

“I love being an HMI health coach because I get to merge my knowledge of plant based nutrition, detoxification and herbalism to help my clients find freedom from outdated systems.

I've been passionate about these paths since my own journey began in 2008 when my doctor didn’t know how to diagnose or treat what turned out to be Hashimoto’s disease.

When his only solution was an antidepressant, I knew I’d never go back to a western medicine for anything outside of an acute injury. It was then that I immediately began researching and learned the benefits of a plant based diet and healing with herbs. That’s also when everything in my life began to change.

Making the switch from toxic and acidic foods to high vibration living foods full of nutrition was one of the most profound decisions of my life. But there were still missing pieces. That’s why finding HMI, and stepping into the detoxification protocols (healing candida, parasites and heavy metal detox), was a game changer. These were the facets I had been searching for. And ultimately what led me to complete and total healing of all disease.

I thank GOD every single day that I can successfully lead those who feel called to work with me.”

“When deciding to go through with the HMI Candida cleanse I was not aware of all that I was signing up for. It was the best decision I made, to begin my healing journey. It was truly transformational on many levels.

After realizing how I loved talking about my experience with doing the Candida Cleanse and going vegan, I decided to join HMI. Prior to enrolling in HMI I enrolled to another program and realized the information did not resonate with me and did not seem genuine.”

“I have been on an inner healing journey since 2016, and in the beginning of 2019 I decided to make my health a priority. I quit smoking, started eating plant based and healed my candida.

During the group candida cleanse I was part of, I became really interested in the body, nutrition and how it all worked, so I enrolled at Health Mastery Institute. My relationship to food started to change. Healing my emotional connections to food became a focus.

Focusing on my health has brought me more in alignment with my body, my mind and my soul. It is all connected. I found that once I made that first self-loving step, it was easier to keep making self-loving choices.

I became a health coach to empower others the way I felt empowered. To meet people where they are in their journey and to show them that it is possible to start living a vibrant, healthy life!”

“My journey with HMI has been nothing but AMAZING!

I met a HMI coach back in 2015 and I immediately knew this was what I was looking for. I tried many fad diets and all of them worked one way or another but they did not give my body what it needed to thrive. I was not letting go of weight and maintaining it while feeling good.

I followed HMI’s Heal Candida Now program first and that was life changing, like BIG time. This protocol helped let go of weight that was not budging no matter what I did, help clear digestive issues, skin rashes and I felt like a brand new person!

I also followed HMI’s 66 Day Health Mastery program. That program helped expand my outlook on more plant-based foods. Totally shifted my taste buds and many ways! It also dug deeper into emotional eating which I definitely had! The exercises in there helped work through the emotional and attachments to food and the “why.” I have lost little over 100 lbs and on my third year maintaining. I feel like I’m in a whole new body. Pretty amazing!

Now I am leading these protocols within group classes and personal one-on-one sessions. It’s amazing hearing and seeing how my clients have changed just by the commitment they have to themselves!”
