Read my latest words on everything from self healing to spiritual growth.

There’s an underlying force for good that affects us all; a dynamism I like to call Grace. I believe we are all standing [and living] in the river of Grace – always and especially when it feels like we’ve been deserted. Grace is influencing our thoughts, feelings, decisions and actions. It moves via our ideas, inspirations, intuitions, realisations and creative impulses. It can also arise as inner concerns, questions, or curiosities, and as external invitations, synchronicities and [both wanted and unwanted] life events and changes.

Perfectionism isn’t only about being perfect, it’s about never feeling good enough and doing everything humanly possible to avoid failing. Perfectionists can be high achievers, very self-disciplined, and possess great attention to detail, but it comes at a cost…

As the name suggests, Mind Detox is a tool for letting go of anything toxic that is preventing you from being at your best. I believe we are born with brilliance built in, but if we are holding on to toxic beliefs and/or unresolved stuff from the past, it is harder to engage our natural states of inner peace and immense potential…

Love, or a perceived lack of it, can be found at the heart of the majority of my own and other people’s root causes that I’ve discovered and resolved using Mind Detox. Irrespective of what the presenting problem is, whether it be a physical condition, an emotional one or a life challenge, the antidote is most often love. And irrespective of the country, culture, age or background of the people from across the earth who I’ve worked with, love appears to be by far the most powerful force on the planet for bringing about miraculous healings and transformations…

In November 2021 I was awarded ‘Tutor of the Year’ by the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT). I was commended in the same category in 2012 and after a decade of discovery, I was given the top award. Why? I’ve learned over the years that creating an award-winning academy is not only about offering the best courses I can, but equally important, is the context within which the courses are taught. In other words, it is about the heart that goes into everything done and working with an awareness that love wins.

Ever heard the phrase: You Are What You Seek? For years I thought it was just some happy-clappy spiritual mumbo-jumbo. To be told that I was peace when I wasn’t feeling peaceful was not only confusing, but really annoying! That was, until I learnt meditation and started to experience a sense of inner peace - irrespective of what was going on in my mind. But don’t take my word for it… try this easy experiment…

Do you have a skin condition and don’t know why? I believe the body speaks the mind and have extensively researched the mind-body connection, along with the reasons why people develop chronic physical conditions. Before I share the common causes of several skin conditions, including acne, athlete’s foot, dandruff, eczema, fungal infections, hives, herpes, itching, numbness, psoriasis, shingles and warts, here’s a little background theory…

Words cannot describe the relief that came to me the day I discovered that my memories from the past, irrespective of how bad or sad, were only accessible now via my imagination. Shockingly, the same went for my fears about the future. For years I had literally been scared by my mind and imagination…

I was supposed to be getting married today. Around about now, we 'should' be in Mexico, at a resort on the beach in the Riviera Maya, with many of our friends and family... You can probably guess that none of this plan is currently happening…

This year has gone anything but to our plan - and by 'our' I mean almost all of us. If anyone would have predicted the events of 2020, last December, they would have probably been laughed at and called a scare-mongering conspiracy theorist!

What can we do to feel more empowered in the face of world events? How can we be less affected by the spectrum of economic, political, environmental and societal events? How can we move from being frustrated, upset or worried to making a more peaceful and positive impact within the world?

We may think we want to know ‘the truth’, but do we really? Although knowing ‘the truth’ may seem like an obvious thing for us all to want, there appears to be some pros and cons that come into play when seeking truth. Knowing these can help us to prepare for the possible consequences of finding out what’s true, and provide comfort when faced with the not-so-easy knock-on effects…

What if the secret to Self-awareness is the term I use for being aware of the aspect of your self that is aware. What do I mean by this statement? Inside you, right now, there is an awareness that is aware of this moment happening, including for instance, the words you are currently reading. Yes, your mind is reading, but your awareness is aware of the words on the page. See the difference?

I remember having a conversation with my original teacher of meditation (a great guy called Narain) about all the terrible things I saw occurring within the world. Sharing my concerns, sadness, and fear for the future of us all, he made a comment that caused my perspective do a 180-degree turn…

Encountering a range of emotions is an intrinsic and inevitable part of being human, however much we may wish we could flick a switch and turn them off at times…

Why is there more peace in the present moment? When you leave the moment to start thinking about the past or future, you almost immediately begin to feel whatever you are thinking about. If for example you are thinking about a sad past event then that is how to will feel. Or if you are dwelling on a time when you felt hurt, then again, that is how you will end up feeling…

Want some simple ways to immediately improve a relationship? For the best relationships, aim to focus on warming up your own side of the fence - instead of trying to fix, change or improve others so they are more loveable…

Do you find sleeping a struggle? The average person sleeps for 25 years of their life. Sleep plays a massive role in our quality of life and even the quantity of time we are alive. A lack of sleep has been linked with weight gain, heart disease and strokes, depression, reduced concentration, productivity and other mental, emotional and physical issues that any clear-minded person would rather avoid - if given the choice.

Why is my mind soooooooooo busy?!!! I know your frustration. With countless thoughts passing through my mind at a million miles per hour, I’ve tossed and turned through sleepless nights and found it near impossible to focus during work or play.

Want to change the world? Start with this meditation! It is easy to look out at the world and feel powerless with regard to our ability to make any worthwhile impact. It can all seem way too big a task to undertake or appear outside our control and in hands of others. However, if we allow ourselves to remain paralysed by our perceived powerlessness, then the world will end up being governed and shaped by the minority of people we give our power to…

Have you noticed how good it feels to know that you’ve made a positive difference to someone’s life? Even the smallest act of service can bring a great sense of satisfaction and fulfilment. However, have you also noticed how anytime you have a problem, it usually involves a lot of ‘me-type’ thinking? How is this going to affect me? How can I make sure they do what I want or give me what I need?

The classic strategies for enjoying a successful year usually includes things like ‘goal setting’ and ‘taking action’ etc. But what if there’s another way, a easier way, to enjoy a truly successful year - one that you love? Check out my 3.5 surprising strategies for a success year…
