I am currently developing personal practice based on the following broad approaches:

  • narrative - you are the stories you live 
    • based on the work of David Drake, narrative psychology, existential philosophy
  • embodied - you are how you are physically in the world
    • based on embodied leadership work and Qi Gong
  • connected - you are as extensive and connected as you want to be
    • universalist and ecological awareness 
  • centred - at home with the quiet centre within
    • based on spirituality - the Quaker tradition and Daoism
