Thank you so much to everyone who reached out after the sudden passing of my dear wife, Miriam, in August. Your support was so much appreciated!

While it is still raw and early days, I’ve resolved to deal with it from the attitude of gratitude for what we had, and the special light she was for all who knew her.

And I have her cute dog Luna, to help me through!

Prior to her death I had booked 8 days of Craniosacral training in September, specifically Somato Emotional Release (below), which I considered cancelling. However, I decided this may just give me the opportunity to do some much needed and timely healing for myself.

Miriam and I had a beautiful day on the 17th February when we tied the knot at Martinborough with a small group of family and friends. The weather was very warm, the venue stunning, and the atmosphere very welcoming and open.

I hope the year ahead provides you with the opportunities to grow, be happy, be well, and enjoy the best that life has to offer. It is all go!
