It’s Your Internal State That Creates Your External Reality
My son was desperate and begged me to help him get relief from his back pain. The same day I saw Akalai’s profile on Facebook. I reached out and the next day Akalai came to our house. It was such a blessing. My son, who is 19, connected with Akalai like he’s never connected with anyone. (My son had been seeing a therapist his whole life for bipolar disorder. He would never talk to anyone). Akalai listens, teaches and guides my son. Upon contacting Akalai, I was hoping my son would learn Myofascial release for his back pain. (That is exactly what I requested in my email to Akalai). What happened was so much more! Akalai’s guidance in Chinese medicine, teachings of Jesus and his health coaching on holistic plant based diet has transformed my son. He taught my son about the brain-gut connection. My son made the decision, on his own, through the teachings of Akalai, to become vegan. My son’s back pain…gone because of Akalai’s mental health coaching! My son is off all his medication and is in such a better place in his life. Akalai continues to come to our house; he is such a great mentor. I am so indebted to Akalai. He is so much more than yoga!! He is a true blessing!

Over the past six months my husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Akalai as both our health coach and yoga instructor and the experience has been truly transformative Akalai is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate and motivating, his guidance on health, life choices, and eating habits has helped improve not only our physical activity levels, but also our overall approach to daily wellness. We especially enjoy his yoga classes and private sessions we’ve done together have made a big impact on our routine and mindset Akalai’s deep dedication to health, his reverence for family and spirituality and his expertise in Chinese medicine reflects a rare and inspiring level of commitment to his craft. We both consider Akalai not only a talented coach, but also a friend we highly recommend him to anyone seeking to improve their health, build better habits, and feel more connected to their body and soul.

I’m not sure where you found the Chinese Medicine man for teaching class on Wednesday. But I could listen to him for a week straight with no potty breaks. Hands down the BEST CLASS I EVER TOOK THERE! So much beautiful information! I would LOVE if he did a seminar!!! Don’t let him go, whatever you guys do!!!

Akalai was truly phenomenal!! The embodiment of pure intentions and a genuinely kind heart. I feel incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from him when he visited our school. He dedicated five full hours to teaching us, and he did so with such ease, passion, and attentiveness that he kept us fully engaged the entire time.
His presentation was not only thorough but deeply meaningful. We walked away with valuable knowledge that we can apply to our own lives and share with those around us. The impact of his words and wisdom will stay with us far beyond the classroom. I sincerely look forward to the next opportunity to learn from Akalai again. He is truly a blessing to everyone fortunate enough to cross his path. Gratitude 🙏

Akalai’s 9 day challenge was the perfect compliment to my healing work I was doing at the time. The way he combined myofascial release techniques with yoga targeted areas in my body where I was holding stress and trauma. The releases I felt helped to clear energetic blockages, leaving my body feeling more balanced throughout the day.

What an amazing class! Thank you for making me feel relaxed and in a great mood all day. I’ve been traveling and my sleep patterns have been messed up by daylight savings and a 6 hour time change and a 22 hour travel day. Last night was the best sleep I've had since returning!
