Nobin John FMCHCCo-Founder, Board Certified Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach

Wellness is the cornerstone of true happiness. Nothing motivates me more than nurturing the growth of joy in the lives of my tribe. I have seen, first-hand, how by combining the principles of mindfulness and functional medicine we can confidently heal and energise our lives.

I have always believed that Orka Wellness was meant to exist in this world. I feel fortunate that this project chose me to carry out its mission and realize its dream. I am grateful to the universe for the opportunity and I am ready to take on this responsibility.

My Story

For much of my life, I struggled to feel truly healthy and well. I have experienced obesity, gut permeability, food intolerances, allergies, asthma, and chronic fatigue, among several other ailments. Several years ago, I hit rock bottom. Rather than feeling sorry for myself, I was committed to finding my path to wellness. 

After many failed attempts with conventional programs that promise short-term results, I realised that the only way out of all of my health problems was to adopt a lifestyle that was sustainable for a lifetime.

That’s when I found Functional Medicine. The approach isn’t easy as conventional medicine that aims to suppress symptoms, but the effects were life-changing. When functional medicine principles guided my choices, I felt energised, happy, and more in balance. Not only did my health issues begin to correct themselves, but I also became more mindful about the choices I was making and how they affected my wellbeing.

Today, after years of implementing the principles of Functional Medicine in my own life and getting the training to understand why it works and bring that knowledge to others, my days are fueled by a much deeper meaning.

In addition to providing us with concrete tools to feel well, functional medicine also provides essential life principles that encourage us to pause meditate on the root cause of any sign or symptom of illness and to discover why we make the decisions we make. 

This journey has made me a more balanced individual inside and out, and today I believe my calling is to share the joy of this life experience with people looking to live fuller, healthier lives.

Our Philosophy

Health and Wellness

Our bodies have the natural ability to heal and even reverse disease conditions. Through our actions, we have to consciously help create an environment conducive for it to achieve and sustain health. By seeking support from health professionals trained in knowing how to create these in-body environments, we can see positive changes in our bodies in a timely manner. 

Coaching

I like to combine the principles of positive psychology, functional ‘lifestyle’ medicine, and a research-backed naturopathic medicine approach to inspire lifestyles that heal past damage, and optimises brain, body, gut, and soul health.

My name is Aswini, and I would love to take this opportunity to welcome you to our "Orka Wellness Community" where we believe in the power of real foods to change and transform lives. My love for food is immeasurable. I always loved to mix and match food from different styles and cultures and have appreciated all the differences and similarities. But later on, I always thought about ways I could possibly recreate them at home when I had a crav...

Testimonials

STARTED WITH A MONTH OF ‘GUT RESET’ PROTOCOL IN 2021 AND SINCE  THEN  WORKING WITH NOBIN FOR OVER 6  MONTHS  ON A ‘HOLISTIC MAKEOVER’ PLAN AND I CAN’T  SAY ENOUGH EXCEPT I WILL BE  SIGNING HIM UP AGAIN.

Nobin’s patience, positive approach, knowledgeable yet logical approach, and enthusiasm are just unbelievable.

SHEROY IRANI

“I have been a business person for over 15 years and stumbled over Orka Cafe on my newsfeed as I was looking to move out of my comfort zone business ventures. I think it’s one of the most purpose-driven businesses out there. The amount of flexibility and quick support is something very unique.

I and my partners started off with a small boutique cafe, after six months we moved out to a bigger location to cater to the increasing needs of my local market, and I did this with no apprehension. ”

SAI RAM

Worked with them on a 7-day Gut-health and Detox Program. A life-altering experience.

The wealth of simplified information and supercharged motivation delivered by Aswini and Nobin was unmatchable.

It encouraged me to stick with the plans laid out for 7 days, for the whole month. And what I saw was a loss of 5kg weight, better moods, and energy levels that I thought were something I could only dream of at this age. Motivated by that, I have brought in lasting changes in my whole life routine. The results of this have started motivating others in my family and my friends too.
