How One Family Event and Lana Changed My Life

This March my dad had urgent quadruple bypass surgery. He never expected that he had a hart problem, but when he arrived to the hospital for angiogram procedure, it was determined that two of his arteries are 100% clogged and the third one is closed at 90%. The next day after 6.5 hours of surgery he was all right.

When I spoke to surgeon after the surgery he told me that usually patients like my dad are being checked by pathology anatomists not by surgeons who are trying to save a patient. When I asked him, “How could it be? My dad never had a family history of hart related problems?”, he told me: “Your dad did not have any history, but you now have one!!!” He recommended me in near future go through some tests to check my condition. He didn’t have to tell me that. I was already scared to death. I was weighting 230 Lb and my cholesterol level was 236.

The truth is that our family emigrated from the former Soviet Union and the first time I’ve heard the word “Cholesterol” was long after my arrival to JFK. No one back in Soviet Union ever thought about cholesterol. I personally liked to eat. Of course it was a lot of fat foods because I thought that if the food is tasty it must be fatty. Some time before my dad’s urgent hospitalization, I realized that I started gaining weight without any control over the situation. My family doctor for the last two years was trying to prescribe some cholesterol reducing medications, but I refused to take them.

Soon after my dad recovered, I went to one of the Spiritual Adventure trips to Peru, organized by Lana Pritzker, whom I know as a friend, a coach and a healer for over 15 years. During this trip I shared my fears, concerns about my family and my personal health and a need for guidance with her. In response, she explained how my family situation may be addressed, showed me all the benefits of educating myself and my wife and parents about the challengies of our current life style, and making desicion to cleanse and nurture ourselves at every level. She offered me help in focusing my energy and efforts into an easy to follow program that I immediately accepted as my coaching program. It was especially easy because Lana is a role model in everything that she shares with others. I could already see the possible results by just looking at her and her family. For example, using this program her husband dropped his already low cholesterol level by 20 points. I thought that if even her husband, an athlete and Everest's Summitteer in a great physical form, can benefit from her coaching programs, it was really worth for me to give it a try.

Lana's program was a great experience for the whole family. She talked to each of us and helped us understand our individual goals and our collective family mission to create a lyfe style tat supported everyone of us while offering an expansion and personal growth. Both I and my wife decided to start the 30 days Wellness coaching program with Lana and it was the best investment we could possible make. Today, two months after we started the Wellness program, my wife looks younger and feels more excited about life. I am a tall man and I weigh 196 Lb, my cholesterol level is 176 (49 –good; 107-bad) and I feel great!!! My energy level is unlimited and my fears and inner conflicts about food and family related stress are gone. The best part of it was that we did it together and supported each other in feeling younger, healthier, and more energetic. This experience  brought us closer  together and made our connection even more intimate.

Thank you Lana for helping me feel vibrant, in control and inspired to take care of myself and my family.
