Teachers, Teachings and Life Experience
The teachings and learnings that I have experienced and drawn upon through life and in my work are too numerous to mention. Anything, or anyone, that I have ever had contact with throughout my life, will have its own thread in what I offer and it is not always possible to single out ideas, thoughts, practices and teachings and credit them to any one person or group. However, where this is possible, I will do so, to the best of my ability.
