What brings you here?
Are you looking for something to change in your life and wondering if mindfulness and meditation can help? It possibly can. It isn’t for everyone, though you won’t know until you try.
Maybe you’ve heard it can help with mental health and want to see how that works. Yes, there are thousands of studies to show the benefits. How will it help you though? Look at the testimonials page to see how other individuals have been helped with my course.
Location
I was born (cisgender male, he/him) in London, UK and am currently living in Fremantle, Perth in Western Australia.
Mindfulness and meditation
I have been a daily meditator for over 15 years now and a practitioner for longer than that. Long vipassana and regular shorter retreats remind me of the clarity that can be reached and serve as a foundation to the daily practice.
More recently, since the popularisation of Mindfulness and the introduction of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) into the world, I have added courses in mindfulness including a two year training as a mindfulness meditation teacher with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach.
Please check this page for information on taster sessions and/or regular Mindfulness courses.
Relaxation massage
My massage training was in London in the early 2000’s with Claire Maxwell-Hudson who was a bit of a guru of massage. Her saying was “Life takes it out of you, massage puts it back”. Swedish/Relaxation is my massage style, preferably a full-body so that the whole system can reset and relax.
Pressure is firm enough to awaken muscles, increase blood flow and move lymph though not as firm as a “deep tissue” massage.
