holistic personal development and spiritual formation at its finest

This site is (very) slowly having major changes. For my (local) weekly Sage and (international) monthly Fourhares Newsletters, please subscribe below. If you wish to visit my older website on which I still have most content, please click on one of the links at the bottom of this page.

Yoga retreat in Denmark April 2025

Corporate option: MEDITATION: Meditation has been shown to lower stress and workplace injuries. For corporate settings, I offer from 2-hour to full day (up to two days/month) options for management, machine-handler, mining, and hospital (staff) options. COST: $2500 / day (plus travel and accommodation where applicable).

My consultancy in both education and mindfulness-meditation continues, though I am not actively pursuing contracts (offers will nonetheless be considered on their merit and my availability).


Homeschooling support: Those in the Augusta-Witchcliffe-Margaret River or the Balingup-Bridgetown-Nannup regions and are homeschooling 12-17 yo, I do groups for various cross-syllabi studies (ranging from mathematics, philosophy, history, geography and literature). Please see below for the Margaret River region or the Balingup region current offerings.


Spiritual Formation: Personal Development through individualised Spiritual Direction guided by meditation and imagery.

If you are unfamiliar with Spiritual direction, please do check SDI (Spiritual Directors International). Spiritual Direction is a process in which a person seeks guidance and support for their spiritual growth with the help of a mentor or spiritual director. It involves exploring questions of faith, purpose, and connection with the divine, focusing on inner transformation and personal insight. Imagery in spiritual direction serves as a reflective tool to facilitate dialogue, insight and introspection. Symbolic imagery helps uncover personal developmental patterns, spiritual insights, and areas for growth, providing a meditative grounding from which to explore one’s spiritual path.

I offer a 6-month and 12-month package, meeting on a monthly basis (online if too distant to meet in person), with additional contact sessions as negotiated if needed. Cost $160 per monthly session.

Obtain ASEA Redox products

Much research has emerged over the last two decades on the functions of redox processes in maintaining cellular health. ASEA products delivers redox molecules that may assist in the process!

800% Increase in Glutathione Efficacy
> Discover Redox: Redox Science
Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) performed in vitro tests to determine the antioxidant efficiency of the body’s most powerful natural antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD).

The results showed significant, well-defined effects. The cell extracts exposed to ASEA Redox Supplement exhibited 8 times the antioxidant efficiency for GPx, and 5 times antioxidant efficacy for SOD. This efficiency was evident especially at low-level concentrations of ASEA Redox Supplement, tested down to 2.5% of full strength.

If you are interested in learning more, do have a look at these three (amongst many hundreds) YouTube and website videos.

Thank you to those who were able to come to our presentation in Dunsborough. if you would like Katana and I to present in your region, please be in contact… Click here to order (or contact us if you need help with obtaining or information on Redox).
