Although my grades were always good, I soon found myself
totally dissatisfied with the over-abstract, over-academic
study of life. I needed real practical solutions to
break free from the reactive patterns of the past and turn my
life into everything I truly wanted it to be.
I began studying NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) which
is concerned with how the mind works and how we can optimize
our results in terms of our health, relationships and
finances. NLP was created in the 1950s when a computer
programmer and a mathematician began studying the therapeutic
techniques of renowned therapists Milton Erickson, Virginia
Satir and Fitz Pearls. While I found some success with
these early NLP patterns, I intuitively knew there was still a
missing piece of the puzzle waiting to be discovered.
In 1997, I began practicing Wing Chun Kung Fu which led me
into mind-body training through the study of Qigong.
Qigong (pronounced "Chee Gong") is the ancient Chinese art of
"energy exercise". It works with the body's subtle energy
system to release blockages, calm and relax the mind and body
and boost energy levels. I found incredible relief in these
practices and was able to heal much of my past trauma in a
matter of months. To this day, these mind-body training
practices form an integral part of everything I believe in and
teach.
In 2003, I created my first distance learning program - an
introduction to meditation, energy work and manifestation
called "Secrets Of Meditation, Health & Manifestation". I
wanted to share some of the practices that have made such a
big difference in my life. A whole range of programs soon
followed and in 2007 I founded The Mind-Body Training Company
to continue sharing these time-tested holistic practices.
Of course I still have my challenges but I know that
growth and evolution demands nothing less! I
recently gained my Master & Trainer level certification in
several techniques for accelerated human change, namely, NLP,
Hypnosis and Neurological Re-patterning. To this day I continue to develop and refine holistic
mind-body practices that turn dreams into reality.
