The beginning of August 92 was the end of all the effort of 9 years, I stopped trading sold most of my equipment and tools a sad time for me. Unemployed like 9 years before after my wife had left me with 3 boys aged nearly 4, 5 and 11 years of age. Able to hold on to my job for a year after she had gone, doing shift work at the airport with lots of help from family and some very good friends, but with new shift changes it became to much, so children first, job went. So after a couple of months I started a landscaping business to have control of my time, enabling me to work around my boys.This time, children were older and an understanding partner, also the money from the equipment gave me a breathing space. What to do? Unemployment office told me that after 3 months of being unemployed I could go for retraining, for what, where and most of all was I to old or set in my ways to retrain.In 92 and 93 life had changed, very difficult times, stressful, why and what’s happening was always on mind. Now no fault of my own, life was turning upside down yet again. With the same spirit as then,. I knew I would survive, it was just the question of how.During the first week I came across the information pack that the colleges give out for its evening classes, great let’s see if I pick one of these and this could let me know how I might get on with a government retraining course. Well after picking out three on my short list, Shiatsu, Massage and a third one that I don’t remember, academic, so being a hands on person maybe the reason I forgot, although these course’s were chosen because they were alien to me, if I could manage one of these then I would hopefully be comfortable with what ever the government threw at me. The question now was which one, the answer was why not two, got plenty of time until Christmas a full term at college. Massage would finish Christmas, Shiatsu at Easter no problem. Last minute sign up very nervous about signing up and turning up on the courses. The next week I turn up at the massage course with a towel, bathed and very, very nervous, the teacher ended up being a male near retirement age which made things feel a little easier. Introductory talk was interesting but the shock came when he told us that this 30 maybe year old was going to be the model for the first demonstration, beautiful, confident and stunning. Being a strong and hot blooded male my thoughts were this could be embarrassing for me, this is not going to work better make excuses and leave.John, the teacher asked her to take off her top and lay down on the couch, after lying down she reached behind and undid her bra, John placed a towel over her back placed his hands on her lower and upper back for a few moments then slid the towel down to below her waist tucking it into her skirt and revealing all her lower back. What happened next was the most amazing experience, until then I had seen, he never spoke just massaged her whole back as if he was an artist.I watched her body blend into his hands and the couch, or the couch and hands dissolve into her body, whatever happened was like magic she just looked so peaceful, relaxed her whole being just transformed. When he finished I knew I had to learn this, the embarrassing thoughts had long gone, I wanted to know how to do this magic. Two nights later I went along to the Shiatsu class, several of us turned up, mostly female different age groups, this time clothes on and going to work on the floor. The teacher was named Sue, she started to explain about Shiatsu and after a while Yin and Yang, energy, ki or chi, acupressure points, mind, body and spirit connections and some more, I realized I had read about all these terms over the years and thought nothing of it. But now they were coming together and wham I felt like I did two nights before, books I had found just interesting in the past had been preparing me for this time.

The story goes on but during that time many things had to change in me sometimes like being hit by a bus sometimes so subtle it took time to realize the changes in my body, mind, beliefs and spirit. To work with a persons body and mind so intimately. To touch so lightly and yet so deeply to build a trust between two people is Magic it only happens when the soul is allowed to connect. Touch and sex, that first night when working became and still is separate; working with a male, female, young or old is the same. We are all brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers of the human race; we are one when we go to that place. Treatments or massage of any kind can take you to that place, we can not or should not abuse it or we lose it, the magic will be gone. My journey only just began at this time, now 15 years later with so many experiences and Stories to tell how my Son and Brother intertwined over these years, the friends we have made the friends we have lost.

Where to go?
The Stories will follow, not as a look at what I have done, but look at what you can achieve. Where I have been anyone can go, the opportunities are more available to the human race now than anytime its history.
May you always walk with the energy, let it protect you, challenge you, then you can let yourself grow. As humans it is only how we use our thoughts that hold us back, I’m not good enough, I don’t deserve it, its to hard, haven’t got time, I wont like it, they wont let me, you have got to be special or gifted, that’s an ego problem for the special or gifted. We can all do it, but we all find some things easier than others we all have what’s termed a gift; we have just got to step out side sometimes to find it. Life is for the living lets live it. I now want to share, create, indulge and teach some of my experiences and knowledge with those who want to make that step out side. I only ask that it’s the heart not the head that wants to make that journey, the books and stories, you might remember some of, but experiences cannot be forgotten because you have been there and your soul knows the way back.

The day Mum and Dad realized ‘if we were weird so were they!’
Mum and I were talking one day several years ago, about my brother Andy, son Shane and myself and ‘the things’ that we were getting into; Mediumship, Channelling, Healing and many other forms of energy work.
Mum wasn’t sure about it and ‘where did we get it from?’. Then sitting with a cup of tea, I asked her questions about the times she had asked us about ‘what’s wrong?’ and we would say ‘nothing’ so as not to worry her; she would get cross and demand that we talk to her because her instincts told her different. Sometimes she would give reference to what it was about, without anyone telling her; she dreamt it or just knew it would be the answer. Then I asked my mum about my aunty and grandad’s dreams and visions at night that were similar; the time they saw children, blackness, screams and horror. A few days later the mountain of coal slag buried the school and the plane that crashed while landing at Gatwick and many more incidents. These dreams/visions would be spoken about after the dream, before the event; this mum accepted as normal as it was part of her life that she had grown up with. Dad came in during this conversation, so I turned to him and asked him what time of the year he liked, he said he liked the spring just before the leaves come out on the trees and bushes. ‘Why do you like that time dad?’,He answered ‘early in the morning when biking to work or walking to school as a child and looking up at the trees, weeks or days before the leaves come out, the heat haze and tinges of colours fascinate me’.
‘But Dad, trees give off a heat haze at night as the air cools, not in the morning after a frosty night.’ I explained to him that as the energy goes up the tree from the roots for the buds to open and sprout leaves, it gives off an aura; which probably, is the most visible at that time of year. Dad then said ‘everyone sees it!’.No dad lots of people work hard to see auras, He had seen it all his life and didn’t know any different.
