Dear visitor

 A huge hello

So here you are, dear visitor.

Something in you may have recognised something here — a flicker of curiosity, a resonance, a ‘Yes’.

The sense of what is good for you, good for your life, and good for Life itself is always within you. It’s present in bright times and, perhaps especially precious, present in challenging ones.

I’m going to be a little controversial

Here goes: 

Recently in the past few years, there has been a cry to ‘find your tribe’ – meaning people with whom you have a fit. Often in the area of values, what matters, and therefore in the kind of ways of life and actions you have in common.

It’s in our nature to belong. But I have always thought that calling this is a tribe is misleading.

The thing is that, in a tribe, people have to conform. They are given a part to play by the culture into which they are initiated and if they don’t play it, then…..

We don’t have that in the Western World. While we naturally seek out people with some common ground like us, we have an idea that we are individuals each with responsibility, accountability and choice.

Indeed, this is sometimes called ‘the curse of freedom’.

There are very many approaches which advocate that we overcome or even do without our sense of self.  Very many use the word ego in a negative way. And recent years have brought real upheaval, touching our wellbeing in many ways. Yet through it all, your Smiling Mind is always here.

All good.
All wonderful.

That’s what I am about.  I am qualified and extensively experienced in coaching for a good night’s sleep and in NLP for creativity, action and vitality.

Also in Hypnotherapy, Nutrition, in Kinesiology and in teaching Savouring, Yoga Nidra Meditation, Mindfulness for presence and Creative Visualition for an exciting future.

(There are even more: see below)

I’ve been putting those to work across many fields of personal and professional development for more than twenty-five years.

Essential discoveries

My first class BA Hons degree in Communication and Social Philosophy from the University of the West of England (where I was later a lecturer) taught me the power of good research.

It also taught me that findings were useless if they’re not put to work.

Yes, I am trained and qualified. But I also keep up with research to give good ground to what I do.

This enables my sincere work to meet your own desire to thrive.

Good wishes, happy days and get in touch.

Love, Faith
