When I finally allowed my authentic self to have complete freedom, I was astonished at the automatic happiness that this created. Whatever is going on in my life, no matter how troublesome, I feel joyful. Having learned not to seek solace internally or externally, I am totally living in the moment. I trust that whatever happens will be for my benefit and it usually is.

My role in life is as a healer or teacher. It doesn't matter what format this takes. Healing can occur during a conversation - if someone feels better in my presence, then healing, on some level has taken place. If I help someone to communicate in a more effective way, this will heal on many levels.

I wholeheartedly believe that good ALWAYS comes out of bad, and that we never have to accept anything just because 'someone' else has told us it is so. This, in my opinion, also includes illness.


Laughter
What can I say about the laughter program? I think it is awesome, and it won't take much to convince you if you join a session. It's liberating and it's fun, as well as all the additional benefits that it gives us. I am playful and imaginative in my workshops, last time I invented laughter Tai Chi and laughter karate, which the delegates seemed to like!

Don't dismiss laughter therapy as some lighthearted ineffectual process. Oh boy it is so not! Laughter can create core changes on so many levels and within any environment. Situations like conflict and unresolved relationships can be transformed, depression can be lifted, teams can be bonded in a way that few other activities can achieve. I am confident that you will experience great change if you make a commitment to a regular club, workshop or call me in to work with your team. I create great energy and it's never boring!

Spiritual Coaching
When I trained as a coach, I wasn't sure in which area to specialise. I realised that in 2004, when I qualified, I wasn't quite ready to unfold as a spiritual coach. I began my own spiritual journey in the mid 1990's. I gave up a high powered successful career as a sales representative, leaving behind all of the benefits and started life as a dog groomer!! After fifteen years of endless traveling and the pressure of hitting targets, I needed to switch off mentally for a while, but it was a struggle. After a while, physically tired from grooming dogs and needing mental stimulation again, I trained as a web designer and Internet Specialist. My area of expertise is - from planning stage - getting a web site onto page one of Google. Some of my own web sites have achieved this within 3 weeks!!

My life changed after a reading with a medium, who suggested that I was a natural healer. I trained in Reiki and have taught this for many years, specialising with horses and teaching others to practitioner level. I qualified in Shamanic healing and Quantum Touch healing, but I follow my own heart and intuition with the healing process. I developed as a psychic, did a period of psychic art and studied, and continue to study and implement the law of attraction - Quantum Physics. Several years ago, I completed a one year course with The Centerpoint Research Institute in America, which dramatically changed my way of thinking.

I meditate at least three days a week, and spend a great deal of time & energy developing myself as a person. I am an incredibly positive and grounded person to be around, and I thrive on helping others to believe that anything is possible... because I believe that is so. The power of the mind is untapped for most of us, which is an area that I love to explore with others. When I focus upon you, you will feel uplifted, and I say this only with the backing of the many people whose lives I have been lucky to have touched, many who have become close friends.

My findings have been that, in the most part, people are living behind the layers of veneer which modern society persuades us to wear. This may not be a particularly happy place to be, and can generate feelings of restlessness, unhappiness and frustration. Frustration, because clients often say, "I have everything that I need in my life but I just feel that something is missing".

My job, and indeed my passion, is to help others to unveil the authentic self because this is the root to joy, fulfillment and happiness. Enlightened teachers tell us that we should not look externally for our happiness, they say we should look within. I believe, from my own experience, that we don't look within either. We simply learn to live from a place of authenticity. This creates the foundation for empowerment and provides us with an incredible platform for progress, success and change.

Creating Positive Change
Coming from a dismal period of conditioned acceptance of the way that things are, I set out to challenge, change and improve my own belief system, driven by an inherent need to positively vamp up my experiences. Over a period of some years, and considerable self study, I formulated a better way of thinking which radically changed my own life. That done, I committed to helping others understand how the quality of your thoughts will dictate the quality of your life experiences. I formulated the Creating Positive Change program as a structured way of guiding others to become positively self inspired.

Inspiring
A high percentage of my clients tell me that I am inspiring. Well, I can say that is so because I love inspiring people. I thrive on helping others to uncover positive aspects to their personalities and, in the doing so, raising confidence, self esteem and enjoyment of life. I feel personally fulfilled when I know that I have genuinely made a difference.
