Where does FEAR and TIGHTNESS come from? Why is it that back in 2001, I had so much tightness in my body that I could barely move without great pain? What had paralyzed my legs and the rest of me far beyond the groin-pull injury I had begun with? As I lay on the floor in…

One of the things that I love best about my work is when I can bring all the various aspects together: people, nature and animals. The other day, as I was pondering this time of staying at home, I realised that this is the perfect opportunity for us all to do just that! People This…

As I was sitting in the woods by our house the other day, enjoying the stillness, I began to notice that even in the relative quiet of this space, there’s lots of activity going on: birds singing, bees buzzing, squirrels scampering and insects crawling around in the leaf litter at my feet.
