Bhakti (devotion) and Seva (being of service) are my passion. All my work - whether as compassionate inquiry therapist, mentor, bodyworker or yoga teacher - is guided and informed by the principles of love, compassion and service. I believe in our inherent wholeness, and am ever curious about the dance between the personality, our conditioning (what we learnt from our environment), and our individual soul. A soul which remains inherently whole, no matter what may have happened to us. I see our work and purpose, collectively as human beings, as an un-doing of and a dis-identification from the protective layers that have formed that conceal, or obstruct, the natural luminosity of the soul: together we can shine, because it is who we are if we are willing to see, hear and inquire deeply, with curiosity, presence and patience. Trauma is a buzz-word these days, but in literal terms it means wound and being wounded and wounding is part of all relationship, none of us are exempt. However, old wounds can heal and can be perceived as valuable indicators, creating a road-map to the vital, luminous self within. All it takes is willingness and action. And the wisdom will reveal itself.
