I have been exposing myself, failing and learning, as a bystander of the Israel-Palestine conflict. From my Jewish ancestors who died in the holocaust, I learnt how important it is to stand up to oppression. From my German ancestors who were in Berlin during the second world war, I learnt to be an Active Bystander, […]

The world is in hiatus – the cost-of-living crisis, the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East; populist far-right governments and loss of democratic rights, the potential escalation of conflict in a divided world and the pressing needs of the environmental emergency. How do we live with this? How do we stay resilient? How do […]

Dilts Logical Levels can be facilitated as a deep meditation that aligns: what you do with your skills and strengths with your core beliefs and values with your sense of who you are when you are at your best with your inner, half-hidden, knowledge of the essence of existence (which you know secretly, because it […]

With the almost unimaginable scale of the impending catastrophe 1 for humanity with climate change, why aren’t people taking action to mitigate it?

The divine is everywhere, all the time, if we slow down enough to notice. When I gaze in a baby’s eyes, or look at flowers growing out of a stone wall or take time to notice the little cues that hint at the lives and history of people on the underground in the rush hour; […]

As you know, my aim is to make the Life Talent Programme the most powerful personal evolution programme in the world and my aim is to include the latest evolutions of personal change, coaching and psychotherapy.

In these 6 recordings of Zoom mini workshops on Building Self-Belief and Hope in February and March 2021, we develop our memories of success, happiness, being loved, of the sacred, our strengths and being safe and empowered in our bodies, and we create a powerful sense of having more of this in the future.

Victor Frankl in his book Man’s Search for Meaning wrote that there are 3 forms of meaning in life: meaning through work, meaning through love and meaning through how we face unavoidable suffering. Frankl was a successful Austrian psychiatrist who was born in Austria and was sent to a concentration camp during the 2nd World […]

I wonder how Christmas has been for you. Christmas can be beautiful, intimate and magical, and also awkward, disconnected and even haunting… and sometimes both at the same time, or just somewhere in the middle, rather dull and flat, with lots of TV and social media! How was it for you this year?

All the rest of what I teach is meaningless unless you take action to improve your life.

Do you want to evolve and express what is great about you? Here’s  how:

Let’s talk about the practicals of how to take action to improve your life. There are 3 key things you need to do to change your life:

Four things hold you back from fulfilling your potential in life: difficult memories, unresolved emotions, disempowering beliefs and dysfunctional habits and behaviours. Let’s look at how we heal these, and  ultimately to discover that the healing process itself becomes part of our gift to the world.

Once you have satisfied your basic needs for food, water and housing, what can be more important in life than fulfilling your potential as a human being? There are 3 “marriages” in Life: the marriage with your work, the marriage of love and the marriage with yourself.

A simple way of thinking about spirituality is that there is an outer practice, an inner practice and a non-dual practice1. When you have all three your spirituality will really flourish. Let’s explore these three levels and reflect on how they apply to our own practise.

There are 4 important reasons: To remember you aren’t in complete control of your life. To connect to a purpose bigger than yourself. To open your heart. To live long and prosper.

You are not alone! Our skin-encapsulated ego gives us a biological sense of identity, but we would not exist or survive without other people, our food sources, or the entire biosystem. We are part of the biosphere. At a deeper level, we are also part of a great mystery – consciousness itself, and some traditions […]

“I have great potential, but I also have inner gremlins that get in my way”. “Deep Coaching” focuses on your vision, strengths, psychological resources and potential, but also seeks to heal disempowering memories and generalisations that undermine you.

Life as music You may have noticed that in the three marriages (the marriage with your work, the marriage of love and the marriage with yourself) each of these journeys eventually leads to an almost mystical experience – […]

Having a Life-Calling helps you to be happier, healthier, more successful and to live longer. The research shows that if you put your Life-Calling in your work you will enjoy it more and find it more meaningful1. You are likely to work harder and be more committed, and not surprisingly, you are likely to be […]

Are you mean to yourself? Do you criticise yourself? Is that helpful? Does it make your life better? If not, stop. How do you stop? Create new habits. Start sweet-talking yourself. Bring your compassionate wise adult mind (yes, there is one in there somewhere) and your warm tender heart and start being kind to the […]
