Hey Liz! Wanted to let you know that I am four and a half months a nonsmoker thanks to my collaboration with you. I really enjoyed smoking, but I could tell it was killing me by inches and I really needed to quit.

I think our discussion about the benefits of quitting, i.e., living long enough to know my grandchildren, really helped motivate me to make a serious attempt at quitting. After discussing my temperament, we decided I should quit cold turkey, without using any nicotine supplements on the market. The various strategies and healthy drinks helped a lot, especially during the first four weeks as my body was learning to live without nicotine. The light exercise program you developed for me has also helped. I think that stretching and exercise give me something to replace the activity of smoking. Also, the daily check-ins with you the first few weeks helped me to get into the habit of being a nonsmoker. It certainly kept me honest during that initial period when I have reverted to smoking so many times in the past. At any rate, I want you to know I appreciate your very effective assistance in quitting smoking. It’s a goal I have had for many years but could not accomplish without some competent help. – SFL

I reached out to ELLO Holistic Health to help me with a skin fungus that made me constantly uncomfortable, and among other things gave me severe headaches. It was relatively benign and I learned that it was not very transmissible to other people because it was already on other people, but it was overexpressing on me for some reason. While I was able to get help killing the fungus, it would return. I eventually learned that the conditions that allowed the fungus to flourish was the acidity of my body. Elizabeth Omizo helped me learn how to eat in such a way as to create an alkaline environment in my body. She helped me learn how to take care of my body pre and post workout to maintain alkalinity and lower my overall stress levels. She helped me understand what kinds of things to eat and even gave me snack and meal ideas that fit my personal needs. My skin is healthier than ever and my head is comfortable. I don’t wonder if eating something is going to give me a headache anymore! I definitely recommend Elizabeth Omizo and ELLO Holistic Health. – Stuart Lantz

Dear Elizabeth,

I want to thank you for your help last year developing a thorough plan for meeting my wellness goals.  Your plan was so well developed and personalized.  I really appreciated you addressing exactly what I asked.  When I started to realize that I wanted the outcomes but I wasn’t prepared to do what it would take, I was embarrassed and concerned that you would be frustrated or disappointed with me.  It was very empowering to recognize you were there to support me as I am and that you had probably realized my goals might have been too ambitious for where I was at that point.  

Your straightforward interactions with me about the plan and whether I was implementing it made all the difference.  You helped me realize what I wasn’t willing to do at that point and accept it.  Your professionalism kept me from feeling uncomfortable or judged about not doing what it would have taken to meet those goals and realize that wasn’t currently best for me.  

Eventually, that sense of control and empowerment helped me take action.  Your guidance on weight loss and improving my sleep was right on target.  When I was eventually willing to commit to those recommendations, both improved.  I’m currently at a plateau where I want to rest for a bit, but I believe I will reach out to you soon when I will want to up my game.   

Thanks again, Elizabeth.  I look forward to working with you again soon.
