About...

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. It is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous. Actually who are you not to be. You are a child of the universe, your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of the universe that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us; it's in everyone.
When we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others"

Nelson Mandela quoting Marlanne Williamson

"As a man among men - I care"

My name is Mark, born in 1965. I moved from Nottingham to Walthamstow in North East London in March '07 where I lived with my soul mate for 41/2 years and practiced from the comfort of my home. In July 2011 we made a new home in Scotland which feels like a heaven on earth and I feel very, very blessed.

At the beginning of 2002 I hit a big crisis in my life. The years prior, I had learned to hate myself to the point where I was seriously considering ending my life. My life was one big lie and I had to sort it out. I entered therapy and the journey began. I went to some dark and scary places in my mind. I started the process of integrating all the stuff I had split off from myself over the years. The reason I am telling you this is because someone recently said to me, "You can only go as far as your therapist has been". I still go to the dark and scary places in my mind and there are new ones all the time. The difference is that now I find my courage and go there rather than being pushed kicking and screaming. It wasn't really like that but it felt like it at the time. My therapist gave me amongst many other things, the holy grail as far as I was concerned - a template for unconditional love. It took me 3 years to recognise it and integrate it. I carry her in my heart and I give thanks to her.

In June 2005 I decided it was time to live my life for me rather than running myself ragged trying to please others. I can't tell you the courage I had to find to leave my wife after a loving 20 year relationship and my five year old daughter and give up what everyone thought was a charmed lifestyle. It was also a time when my spiritual awareness kicked in. I started asking the questions; Is this all there is to life?, Who am I?, What is my purpose?, What happens when I die?

In March 2006 I decided to leave my well paid job with a high street bank to go travelling for a year including India where I developed an interest in Massage. I haven't had a "proper" job since. I attended many personal development, spiritual and tantra workshops and retreats and has included training as a couple counsellor with Relate. I incorporate many of my discoveries into my work and daily life. I enjoy practicing Shivananda Yoga and I meditate on a regular basis and I love cooking with organic food.

More recently, I have become involved in the Man Kind Project - "Changing the world one man at a time", and I have also trained in EFT.
