Universal Year Of The Washing Machine


Edinburgh500_f_thumb
What a wonderful way to spend an autumnal weekend!  Back in my home city of Edinburgh, I spent Saturday and Sunday with the lovely souls attending my Universal reflexology workshop... you know, the one I might possibly have mentioned once or twice over the last couple of weeks!

Well you can relax now, it was a great success (pics below)... which means I’m now free to mention my forthcoming Belfast Workshop dates on the 31st October, 1st & 2nd November!  In other news... Read On...

Hot Air Over Manchester and Colorado

Today I’m back in Scotland and preparing to share the Universal Techniques in Reflexology over the weekend.  These techniques are not mine, they come from the Universe (as shared by Chris Stormer) and I am truly honoured to have her blessing and support as I help pass on these healing techniques around the world.  I don’t know if I will sleep much tonight but it’ll be for reasons of excitement and anticipation rather than nerves!

This week we’re delighted to welcome Paulus van de Merwe and Donna Sozio into our Universal Family. From Germany and the USA, they both bring their unique gifts and vital energy to brighten up our pages.

Paulus is the principle oboist with the North German Radio Symphony Orchestra in Hamburg and is also a professor at Hamburg University. He conducts master classes worldwide but also takes his musical gifts into the healing and spiritual realms as he partners Courtney Ward to create magical Sound Journeys using indigenous instruments.

Donna is a first for us, a highly sought-after dating expert and shoe-ologist. Read On...

A Universal Wedding!

Blowing in the Wind.

Today I’m on my way back to the UK from Newark, USA, and yet it was only this time last month that I was on the warmer west coast of the States and caught up in the centrifugal energies of Chris Stormer’s wonderful wedding whirlwind in wacky Las Vegas! Read On...

Did I already mention I’m presenting a 2-Day workshop in Edinburgh next weekend?! The CD has been such a huge presence and focus in my life over the last few months, that I am gifting it to each of my delegates to celebrate its creation. And of course help them to remember and consolidate on the Universal techniques they will learn over the weekend! Read On...

Part 5: Both Feet Off The Ground

You never really know what’s around the next corner in life. It’s Monday today and I’m sitting in a hotel room alone with my beeper, waiting to be summoned at any given moment to operate a flight. The anticipation — and, dare I admit it, the stress — is almost tangible within these four nondescript walls. Where lies my immediate future? What adventures await me? Where will I be when you read this? Read On...

Part 4: Conforming to consonants

Sound is a very powerful healing tool. Last week, I met up with my dear friends Courtney Ward and Paulus vd Merwe in the UK while they were in England doing Sound Journeys. They really do weave magic through their voices and indigenous instruments and I’ll be telling you all about my experiences of that Sound Journey next month. Courtney also shares her experiences over the last few months as we created our CD together and her account will give you great insight into how she brings her music into being.

For my own part in the story, vocal creativity also awaited me in Scotland... if only I could overcome the obstacles in my path! Read On...

Part 3 — Blood, Sweat and Tears

Another week has passed and I have now journeyed from Japan to Ireland. From one ancient culture to another. Japan with its reflexology roots connected through the feet with the present day Dublin as it welcomes Chris Stormer to present her reknowned Language of the Feet seminars. There’s no escaping the importance of our feet, which is why I’ll be joining Chris in Dublin. Humanity’s Team also carries a message of connection and unity and you too can help by just signing their petition to the UN to declare a Oneness Day. And for more foot reading tips come and join Jane Sheehan at the end of the month when she will be reading the ancient Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius’s feet! Read On...

Part 2. Tentative Steps

With only a week or so to prepare, and a full flying roster to fulfil, I spent every possible moment writing, re-writing and practising the dialogue. I remember starting work on it one night in Entebbe and being stunned some time later when I realised the light in my room was not from the lamp but the rising sun... Read On...
