The Frightening Frequencies I was chatting recently with a group of Diploma students at a CPD (continued professional development) weekend and the topic of 5g technology came up.

What is the life force that gives us innate healing? With our lives being so busy how often do we stop to appreciate our internal energy, innate healing and lifeforce?

Although we rely on this 'energy' entering our … [Read more...] about Life-force Energy and Chakras

We need warm food, root veggies, stews and soups to give our bodies the right … [Read more...] about 7 tips to stay healthy this winter

I've been busy rewriting the Foundation Course manuals with the help of Nora Zimerman Design Studio. Going through the manuals with a fine tooth comb is a huge job, but one great thing to come out of it (other than having completely up-to-date and great looking manuals) is how interlinked the body is and in ways that science has not caught up with yet. The solution to illness is often not where you think it is. Do you have random symptoms that Doctors can't work out? So many people go to … [Read more...] about The solution to illness is often not where you think it is
