L. Morgan is a professional astrologer, spiritual teacher, and founder of Queen of Words Astrology. Her passion for astrology stems from a profound interest in self-awareness and holistic well-being. By analyzing the positions of the planets and their relationships to one another in birth charts, L. helps her clients achieve deeper levels of self-understanding, and she guides them in the application of that knowledge so that they can lead more purposeful and authentic lives.

In addition to one-to-one astrological readings, L. teaches workshops and offers private lessons in astrology. Before she was a full-time astrologer, L. was a university professor in America specializing in linguistics, literature, and education.

In this talk, L. will provide an overview of astrology, including the roles of the planets, signs, and houses in a birth chart. She will discuss how planetary positions and the relationships they have to one another can provide crucial insights into our physical and mental health, personalities, behavioral patterns, and relationships.

– You Might Already Be Going Through It Without Knowing

Juliana Werner is a holistic therapist and bodywork practitioner, founder of Journey Back to the Self, and Renata França therapist at 50 Hill Rise in Richmond. In this episode, she shares her personal journey with perimenopause.

At age 40, she finally received the confirmation she needed: irregular cycles had become the new normal. Her rollercoaster journey had begun four years earlier, yet all along she kept hearing, “You’re too young for perimenopause — it must be something else.”

In this podcast, we’ll explore:

What menopause and perimenopause are, the differences between them, and how they’re connected.

Factors that influence when women typically enter perimenopause—a stage that can last 7–10 years before the final menstrual cycle.

Symptoms you might already be experiencing without realising they’re linked to perimenopause.

Why health systems often fall short in understanding and supporting women during this stage.

Simple practices to support your hormones and, in particular, your lymphatic system through perimenopause — including the Renata França method, the renowned and most effective lymphatic drainage massage technique available today.

A Gift for You

As a thank you for your support, Juliana is offering a personalised lymphatic support plan when you book a body lymphatic drainage session at 50 Hill Rise in Richmond, UK. The plan includes guided videos with exercises and practices to incorporate into your routine, plus a mini guide on how to build your unique pillars of health.

Perimenopause Recommendations

Juliana also shares carefully selected resources to support you through perimenopause, including:

•Books specifically on perimenopause, hormone health, and midlife transitions

•Podcasts that address perimenopause experiences, symptoms, and practical solutions

•Instagram accounts that offer tips, community, and education for perimenopausal women

•Organisations and societies focused on menopause and perimenopause support

•Exercises designed to support hormonal balance, lymphatic health, and overall wellbeing

•Supplements and natural approaches tailored to easing perimenopause symptoms

Ian Jarvis brings together a degree in Computing Science, more than 30 years’ experience in IT and 25 years in body therapy. Since 2011, he has also spent several months each year volunteering in Bhopal, India, working with survivors of the 1984 chemical disaster and children born since.

For more than a decade, Ian has researched and spoken publicly about radio-frequency radiation (RFR), electromagnetic fields (EMF), wireless technology and the expansion of telecommunications infrastructure. His talks aim to make complex subjects understandable without relying heavily on technical jargon, and he has spoken at meetings, conferences and interviews around the UK.

The Social Impact of Technology • Artificial Intelligence • Surveillance • Town Planning & Telecoms • EMF & Radio-Frequency Radiation • 5G & Communications Infrastructure • Personal and Community Awareness

• In a world increasingly filled with AI-generated content, how do we know what to believe?
• If we want to create a new and better society, what preparation needs to happen first?
• How are AI, surveillance and rapidly developing technology changing society?
• What can ordinary people do about telecoms infrastructure and local planning proposals?
• Why self-awareness isn’t selfish – and why Ian believes it is important for the success of us all.

Lynn Flowers is a UK-based Quantum Healer, Starseed Mentor, Ascension Guide and Wayshower, and founder of the Lynn Flowers Academy of Ascension & Plasma Healing. She works with Starseeds, Lightworkers and Wayshowers, focusing on soul trauma, energetic healing, Lightbody restoration and what she describes as humanity’s ascension journey.

Lynn is the creator of the Quantum Plasma Bridge Healing System, through which she teaches multidimensional healing and trains practitioners in areas including Lightbody restoration, emotional and ancestral healing, gridwork and Starseed mission activation.

She is also an author and teacher, with books including Learning to Dance With the Angels, How to Be a Confident Intuitive Healer and How to Be a Confident Spiritual Teacher.

Lynn joins Althea to explore her perspective on the rapid changes taking place in healing and human consciousness, why she believes healing is becoming increasingly accelerated, and what this means for people doing their own inner work.

They discuss the idea that humanity’s collective “shadow” is being brought to the surface more rapidly, the importance of maintaining our own individual frequency, and Lynn’s view that some people are acting as stabilisers for planetary consciousness during this period of change.

• Healing frequencies are changing
• Healing is getting faster & accelerated
• Shadow body is being pulled up rapidly in humanity
• We are stabilisers for the planetary consciousness
• Our own Individual frequency matters

Simon Mitchell is the founder of Green Laurels, creating handmade eco-friendly products for the home and body. His range includes home fragrances and cosmetics made with carefully selected natural ingredients, with a strong focus on sustainability and reducing potentially harmful ingredients.

Simon was initially looking to create a product-based business as he wanted to move away from photography.

The idea actually came from Santa! Simon worked in a Santa’s Grotto at Christmas 2019, and it was Santa who suggested the idea of an eco-friendly bathroom products-style business.

Simon was interested in the idea, as nature had always been important to him. Alongside the portraits he photographed professionally, he had always enjoyed photographing landscapes, animals and the natural world.

His passion for the environment also connects back to a round-the-world trip in 2004, when he saw the huge Kauri trees in Australia. During the trip, a guide explained how vast areas of forest were being cleared and the wood sold to Japanese paper companies. Although trees were replanted, Simon learned that the chemicals and poisons used in the process could destroy the original ecosystem. New trees might eventually create another forest, but the ecosystem that had existed before could be lost.

These experiences helped shape Simon’s motivation to do his part to help the Earth by creating natural, eco-friendly and sustainable products for people and their homes.

For Simon, it simply feels like the right path.

Why he created Green Laurels, what goes into everyday body and homecare products, and how understanding ingredient labels can help us make more informed choices. He also explains the important difference between ingredients such as SLS and SLSa, and why natural, biodegradable alternatives can be kinder to both us and the environment.

• What’s really in our products? – How to read labels and identify ingredients you may want to avoid.
• SLS vs SLSa – Why two ingredients with similar names can be very different.
• Why natural ingredients matter – Choosing gentler ingredients for skin, hair and the home.
• Inside Green Laurels – How Simon creates his handmade, eco-friendly products.
• Small choices, bigger impact – How everyday buying decisions can support a more sustainable lifestyle.

I am a strong believer in taking responsibility for our own health and wellbeing, and have always been interested in natural routes.

I discovered homeopathy over 20 years ago and have been using it ever since. I was diagnosed with a thyroid condition in my 30s. My body did not respond sufficiently to the medication I was put on and so I began searching for alternatives.

I consulted a homeopath, things started to change and I have not looked back since. I subsequently took my daughter to see her for oral thrush, which kept recurring despite anti-fungal medication. I was so impressed with the results that I was inspired to enrol on a 4-year course at the School of Homeopathy in Stroud and have been a practising homeopath since.

I wish everyone knew about homeopathy for healing and what it can do so I’m passionate about sharing what I know. I teach workshops at festivals and work with the Travelling Homeopaths Collective where we give low-cost consultations and remedies as a way of spreading the word.

The aim of my talk today is to give you an idea of what homeopathy is. I will give a brief explanation of how it was discovered and how it works. I’ll talk about the difference between acute and chronic conditions and how we treat them. I’ll also give you an introduction to how you can use homeopathy at home and when travelling as well as looking at a few remedies.

• What is homeopathy for healing?
• Acute and chronic conditions
• A brief introduction to home-prescribing
• A few examples of remedies and what they are used for

Madeleine Hunt is the General Secretary of the Heritage Party and an advocate for democratic accountability, individual liberty and community-led governance.

Having grown up in Poland under communism, Madeleine draws on her personal experience when examining changes taking place within British government and public institutions. Her work focuses particularly on local government, devolution, planning, democratic accountability and the transfer of decision-making power away from local communities.

She has been actively challenging aspects of Local Government Reorganisation and encouraging residents to understand the changes, question their councils and take a more active role in local democracy.

In this conversation, Madeleine explains what Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is and why she believes the changes could have profound consequences for local democracy and the way our communities are governed.

• What Local Government Reorganisation actually means
• Why councils are being replaced or combined into larger unitary authorities
• Devolution and the move towards strategic authorities and mayors
• What could happen to local representation and accountability
• The relationship between LGR, planning, housing and development
• Why Madeleine believes greater centralisation of power should concern residents
• What she has discovered through examining council documents and government policy
• The questions residents should be asking their local councils
• What ordinary people can do if they want their voices heard

Loulou James is a Spine Health Specialist, retired physiotherapist and yoga teacher with more than 40 years’ experience working with the body.

Her Buttafly Technique grew from her own healing journey after fracturing her sacrum. Ten years after the injury, she discovered that the unique Buttafly support allowed her to lie comfortably on her back for the first time in a decade. What she experienced sparked a deeper exploration into the body’s natural ability to release, realign and heal when given the right support.

Today, Loulou helps individuals and practitioners explore a gentler approach to back care and spine health - working with the body’s innate intelligence rather than forcing or correcting it from the outside.

Loulou shares the fascinating story behind the Buttafly Technique and explores how pelvic support, positioning and deep relaxation can help create the conditions for natural release and realignment through the spine.

We talk about:

• The accidental discovery that led to the Buttafly Technique
• Loulou’s recovery following a spinal fracture
• Working with the body’s natural intelligence
• The connection between the pelvis, spine and whole-body alignment
• Why relaxation and gentle positioning are so important
• Changes people have experienced in comfort, movement and posture
• Using the Buttafly Technique at home
• When individual or practitioner support may be helpful

I’m Ash Mahmood, a former secondary school science teacher and award winning film director from London who decided to quit my life and work in the UK and settle in Montenegro where I found healing, peace and tranquility by the adriatic sea and in nature. My passion lies in my home that I purchased here. I have a stone house that’s partially off grid, away from any town in a remote village overlooking the sea that I renovated. I want to share this space by renting it out to other like minded people looking to escape from the claustrophobic and unhealthy city lifestyles in order to experience healing, rest and an opportunity to recharge and reset.

• My journey that led me to Montenegro
• My covid experience
• My life before covid began
• The journey to cut the tentacles keeping me in my trapped and soul destroying life in the UK
• My time in Montenegro, and my home.
• The Importance of being spiritually and physically healthy in order to make the dream happen
• Setting clear goals and going step by step.

I have my apartment that I rent out for people who wish to experience Montenegro

• Go to booking.com for the apartment but they add 15% commission so it works out cheaper to book directly with me. x

Then there is the house/retreat space

• Simple and peaceful, including hikes to the beach, visiting a local village restaurant, and sun and star gazing.
• Speed boat trips around the Bay and coast so those sorts of things are possible too.

Althea says – It sounds beautiful and of course, run by Ash means you get his lovely kindness and insights too x

Diane Mitchell is a Holistic Mindset Practitioner who was told she had 12 weeks to live in 2006. She told her doctor, “I don’t have time to die.” Refusing the only solution conventional medicine offered was surgery that would remove her voice, she chose a 100% holistic pathway to heal her mind, body and soul. Against all odds, she fully recovered.

That pivotal moment sparked a deep journey into mindset mastery – founded from the inner shift Diane experienced the moment she was served up 12-weeks to live. From it, she created her signature method: Change Your Mind ~ Change Your Life.

Diane helps others break free from the outdated beliefs and inner noise that keep them stuck. Her work guides people back to clarity, alignment, and inner freedom.

Long gone are the days of sitting talking about what gets in our way for weeks and months on end, people engage in new methods that move them out of dark places quickly so they can get back out and get on living their life. Taking charge of our mind is a necessity. We only have one place to live, and that’s in our own body – so it’s wise to gather the toolkit for inner freedom. Everyone

deserves this.

She believes: “The mind is an incredible gift, yet it’s not always on our side.” As a holistic mindset practitioner and mindful instructor, Diane assists people to step out of what is getting in their way. Breaking through limiting beliefs, and removing what we ‘think’ is real from the stories the mind tells us, Also, the number of individuals who come to Diane having outgrown their former self –

is incredible, and they leave surprised at how effortless it can be changing the way they think.

The bigger picture came when Diane launched The Wonderful World of Wellbeing. Providing platforms for holistic wellbeing business owners a place to share their gifts with members of the community. With two award wins, Diane hosts events both on and offline – providing choices through a variety of professional pathways that enable individuals to discover the many facets and power of holistic health.

In this session, you’ll leave with:

 Clarity on how each ‘brain’ communicates and influences your choices

 Tools to shift out of overthinking and into calm, aligned action

 Awareness of how to trust your deeper inner knowing

It’s time to free your mind and reconnect with your whole self.

*Diane also took us through a mini healing session on the call.

Book a personal clarity call here: https://bit.ly/Book-Your-Personal-Call

*Each person who may decide to work with Diane following their clarity call –

will receive a special gift of mindful development valued at £277.

Sarah and Althea guide you on a 90-minute healing experience, bringing together two gentle yet powerful approaches to help you release pain, tension, stress, and discomfort naturally.

Both Somatics and The PainFree Method® are based on the understanding that the body already knows how to heal. When we learn how to reconnect with ourselves, listen to our bodies, and create the right conditions, healing can begin.

We both feel that together, these two approaches complement each other beautifully, creating a deeper healing experience that supports both body and mind.

Sarah Guest is a Somatic Educator and Movement Practitioner, and founder of Love Somatics.

Her journey into somatics began after suffering from chronic back pain and sciatica for three years. Having previously worked as a neuromuscular physical therapist and Pilates instructor, Sarah was fascinated by the science behind how the brain controls muscles and movement. Through regular somatic practice, she became pain free and discovered a new way of understanding the body and healing.

Today, Sarah helps people gently move out of chronic pain, tension, and stress through slow, mindful movement and nervous system awareness. Her work supports people to reconnect with their bodies, feel calmer, move more freely, and experience greater ease in everyday life.

Althea Finch is the creator of The PainFree Method®, an alignment-based healing method she developed in 2000 after her own profound healing journey.

For over 35 years, Althea has helped people release chronic pain, long-term physical conditions, anxiety, trauma, emotional distress, and many other symptoms by teaching them how to reconnect with themselves and their body’s natural healing ability.

The PainFree Method™ works by helping people connect with their symptoms rather than fight them, allowing the body to release what is causing the discomfort and return to a state of balance, alignment, and wellbeing.

During this 90-minute session, Sarah and Althea will each share a mini healing experience, allowing you to experience both methods for yourself.

You’ll discover:

• How Somatics and The PainFree Method™ approach healing
• Why pain, tension, stress, and symptoms can become stuck in the body
• How the nervous system influences your health and wellbeing
• Simple somatic movements to release tension and create ease
• How The PainFree Method™ helps you connect with and release symptoms
• Practical tools you can use immediately at home
• Two guided healing experiences so you can feel the difference for yourself

Most importantly, you’ll get a flavour of both approaches and discover which resonates most with you.

If you would like further support after the session, you’ll have the opportunity to continue your healing journey with Sarah, Althea, or both, depending on your individual needs and goals.

Whether you’re struggling with chronic pain, tension, stress, anxiety, stiffness, or simply want to feel more comfortable in your body, this experience will give you practical tools and a real opportunity to begin creating positive change.

Peter Fekete is the founder of Black’s Academy, an educational organisation focused on helping children overcome learning delays, reduce anxiety and achieve their academic potential. His work challenges the idea that some children are destined to struggle or fail within education.

Drawing on Black’s Academy’s experience and a growing body of case studies, Peter argues that many of the problems surrounding SEND and educational failure are not inevitable. He believes that with the right individualised approach, learning difficulties can be remediated, confidence restored and children given the opportunity to succeed.

The growing crisis in UK education and SEND provision, why increasing numbers of children are struggling, and why conventional approaches may be failing to address the underlying problem.

He explores the rise in anxiety among young people, the growing financial and social cost of SEND, and the increasing number of young people becoming NEET – not in education, employment or training.

Most importantly, Peter explains why he believes this is a man-made crisis that can be solved, and why no child needs to be written off as a failure.

• The UK education and SEND crisis – what is going wrong and why the situation is likely to deepen.
• Why anxiety and learning difficulties are increasing – and whether the way we educate children is contributing to the problem.
• The rise of NEETs – who they are, why young people are becoming disconnected from education and employment, and why this affects the whole of society.
• The true cost of educational failure – the impact on children and families, as well as the wider economic and social consequences.
• Why government may not solve the problem – and why Peter believes a different, personalised approach to learning could provide a way forward.
• No child needs to fail – how Black’s Academy aims to remediate learning delays, reduce stress and help students achieve the grades and confidence they are capable of.

Charlotte Henderson is a perinatal safeguarding advocate, birth doula and professional trainer. Known as The Dependency Doula, she works at the intersection of maternity, addiction recovery and safeguarding — bringing lived experience and professional expertise to support women and families navigating systems that too often fail them.

Charlotte Henderson is a perinatal safeguarding advocate, birth doula and educator with lived experience of addiction, recovery and the systems that claim to protect women and families.

In this episode, Charlotte shares her personal story — navigating the maternity and recovery systems during her first pregnancy with little support and significant multi-agency collusion working against her, and then, three years into her recovery, being reported by the NHS after her second birth for exercising her legal right not to engage them — while her daughter lay critically ill in intensive care as a result of their negligence.

She now uses that experience alongside her professional expertise to help other women and families navigate the medical and safeguarding systems where either “too much, too soon” or “too little, too late” seems to be the norm.

• How multi-agency collusion operates in maternity and safeguarding — and what it looks like from the inside
• The legal rights women have that professionals routinely fail to disclose and how they translate into real outcomes
• How to document, communicate and self-advocate when the system is working against you
• Why “too much, too soon” and “too little, too late” are two sides of the same systemic failure
• What recovery through motherhood could look like

My first exposure with plant spirit medicine was 2003, when I went to the jungle of Peru to work with the deeply humble Shipibo shamans. That sparked a lifetime interest in plant spirit shamanism and soon I became particularly interested in working with the spirits of the plants here in my ancestral land of the United Kingdom and started befriending them as allies, teachers and guides.

As well as a deep plant based knowledge bank garnered through both experience and trainings in both shamanic, intuitive and medical herbalism, I have experience working as an addiction counsellor using CBT based methods and as a meditation teacher. I am Master Sekhem and Reiki Energy healer, and work both crystal and sound healing into my offerings.

I am also a medicine singer/songwriter weaving the songs inspired by plants and the ceremony of life into my offerings

🌿How plants heal beyond the mere physical

Christopher Sparkes is the translator of the Keys of the Kingdom Holy Bible, a project that represents more than 25 years of intensive biblical research and translation. A former lecturer, writer, educator, and author, Christopher has dedicated decades to studying Scripture, ancient texts, biblical languages, and translation methods. He is also the author of Searching For Hell and The Study Companion to the Keys of the Kingdom Holy Bible. His work focuses on restoring what he believes to be the original meanings, order, and literary beauty of the Scriptures.

In this fascinating conversation, Christopher explores why he believes that all Bible translations have altered, removed, or changed important words, phrases, and meanings within Scripture. He shares his research into restoring the original order of biblical books and prophecies, explains how translation decisions can significantly affect interpretation, and reveals the unique principles behind the Keys of the Kingdom Holy Bible. Christopher also discusses the beauty, harmony, and literary richness he believes have been lost in all Bible translations, and why restoring these elements is essential to understanding the Bible’s true message.

• Why are there so many different Bibles?
• The restoration of the true Bible and its original message
• Words, phrases, and meanings Christopher believes have been changed or removed
• The divine order of the books of the Bible and its significance
• Where we are now in God’s timeline and the restoration of God’s people

Siobhan came to frequency medicine by a circuitous route. While working in the field of writing and research, Siobhan met her partner, who was electrosensitive, and discovered that, A, it was quite a common problem, and B, she could make EMF protective clothing for her partner, and also sell it to others. That business started in 2019 and took off during the lockdown. Increasingly, however, Siobhan was nagged by the misgiving that just wrapping yourself in protective clothing or shielding your house was not enough, and more needed to be done to make the body more resilient to the increasing electrosmog in our environment.

With her partner, Kit, Siobhan began to look more closely at the beneficial frequencies she knew existed, and found that there were several machines that could help with resilience, but also much more than that. The Frequency Medicine Centre is the result of over 3 years of learning and study, which is always ongoing, as there is so much more to know.

My partner and I founded Frequency Medicine Centre in Glastonbury. This year we opened a second centre in Basingstoke and a pop up in Bridport. We will be opening another centre in Weston Super Mare soon.

This concept is entirely community focused, and the business model does not follow an old paradigm. We run the centres as Private Members Associations. It begins with the community, and people who are guided or inspired to learn about frequency healing for themselves can become volunteers. The volunteers take advantage of the machines to begin their own healing journey as part of the volunteer package. Their personal experience is both a learning curve for them and becomes a way to inspire others. Any profit is both shared and used to expand.

Our vision is to have affordable frequency medicine for as many people as possible. We want to work with others who are interested in having their own centre among their own alternative groups. We want to help them get started.

So many people are becoming disenchanted with, and leaving the NHS, and seeking an alternative. Many of the private alternatives are just too expensive for the average person, especially if they need intensive care in their journey. We encourage health sovereignty, which means taking control of your own health and educating yourself. We help facilitate that journey by offering wellness solutions and continuing to improve our own knowledge so we can share our wisdom, or signpost to those who are more knowledgeable.

We are building a library of alternative healing books in our centres. Glastonbury has the biggest library with an eclectic mix of volumes on many aspects of health, nutrition, and alternative viewpoints.

• How we started, from EMF shielding to resilience and wellbeing.
• What devices we use and new developments.
• Health sovereignty and what it means for us all.

Known as the Raw Food Guru.

Axay Shah is the Founder of Raw Foodiest and brings over 16 years living 100% plant-based raw, with 21 years of personal medical documentation showing full reversal of prediabetes, normalized liver function, zero medications, and no chronic diseases at the age of 67. He is also training for his eighth marathon.

His journey has shown that rebuilding health from the ground up is possible, even for those who have tried countless approaches without lasting change. Over the past 21 years, he has kept detailed medical records documenting how raw, nature-aligned food reversed his prediabetes and brought him to a point where, at 67, he has the energy and stamina to train for marathons and maintain excellent blood work without any medications.

His approach is grounded in what he calls the Energy System Dysfunction framework, examining why so many people struggle with food addiction and chronic disease, while offering a nature-aligned path to lasting vitality.

Axay now leads a global community of over 5,200 engaged members, with an active YouTube channel (208+ videos), blog (150+ posts), monthly wellness webinars, and coaching that moves people from awareness to mastery using his SEED, SPROUT and BLOOM system.

His upcoming book, In Nature We Trust, launches in March 2026. It became a #1 Amazon Hot New Release in Vegan Diets and has been accepted into the Library of Congress.

If you are seeking down-to-earth strategies and a relatable, transparent case of transformation, Axay brings both lived experience and practical solutions grounded in evidence rather than inspiration alone.

My recent work as Founder of Raw Foodiest has focused on showing that radical transformation is possible at any age through both documented evidence and practical strategies.

At 67, I live medication free and have optimal blood markers, all while training for my next marathon.

I share my own journey, together with the repeatable system my community uses to restore energy and reverse chronic issues.

With more than 5,200 community members, monthly wellness webinars, and content viewed by thousands across YouTube, newsletters and social platforms, I’m continually inspired by health professionals looking for more than wishful thinking. They want proof and actionable change.

My book, In Nature We Trust, together with the SEED, SPROUT, BLOOM framework, has helped many move from theory to long-term results in raw food living.

• How radical transformation is possible at any age
• His 21 years of documented health results and living medication free
• How raw, nature-aligned food can restore energy and support long-term health
• The Energy System Dysfunction framework
• The SEED, SPROUT and BLOOM system for lasting change
• Practical strategies that have helped thousands move beyond quick fixes

Cathie teaches us how to have a healthy relationship.

My first career was as an Army Officer, training soldiers and officers in a variety of skills including military subjects, languages, presentation techniques and management.

My second career was running a language training business in France, where we now live.

My third career has been to deliver management and leadership training courses, along with team training and customer service courses (including conflict management training and mentoring in a variety of businesses and charities, in UK and France, but mainly in veterinary practices. I like to work in small to medium businesses, where the kind of training I do reflects the values of the leadership perhaps more than in a corporate environment.

Every training course I run contains an element of an idea called the 5 Love Languages, from a book written decades ago by American psychologist and family therapist Gary Chapman. In a business environment, it is applied as “languages of appreciation” , which has been systemised as business training, very successfully by Dr Chapman, working with business consultant Dr Paul White.

With my professional head on I use this training to build teams and to reduce conflicts and toxic atmospheres at work, and to enhance management of personnel to improve performance – it is incredibly effective at increasing productivity, cooperation and reducing staff turn-over. But my private mission is to give people one single, powerful tool to improve ALL their relationships, which I think has a huge effect on health, well-being and resilience. I have seen some wonderful effects after 2 days of training – people talking to their mother or father after years of estrangement, couples deciding not to split up, colleagues who have hated each other becoming friends – and this on a work team-training course! I love the fact that it provides a holistic approach to work AND family and social relationships.

The idea of love languages

Why it is so awesome for your health.

How it enhances every human relationship and feeds into a sense of well-being in a virtuous circle, and how a lack of understanding of this mechanism of the human psyche can be devastating when it goes wrong.

How to discern the love languages of those around you – and your own.

A few examples of how to apply this knowledge in a personal and a work context.

What are the 5 love languages by Dr. Gary Chapman: https://5lovelanguages.com/learn

I run workshops, rather than lecturing and I am very happy to train trainers to do what I do.

I would encourage people to get Gary Chapman’s books – he has written a number of versions, for couples, children, teenagers (extremely useful!) application in the workplace, and one specifically for men.

Dr Paul White has a website called appreciationatwork.com, where there are lots of resources for organisations and businesses.

I tailor-make my training to any business, charity or school that I work with, so that it is part training, part consultancy; which I find more effective than a generic package – and we have fun too. There’s lots of laughter at our workshops, which opens the heart and mind to change in a remarkable way.

The training is open to individuals and families as well, though I must stress I am not a family counsellor. Rather I treat the couple or family as a team, working out how to enhance their common life.

My name is Sasha and I run Brand Zero, a small natural wellbeing business based in the heart of Gloucestershire.

I was influenced from an early age by my mother who didn’t agree with doctors, instead she was totally into natural ways.

My natural products can be as effective as commonly prescribed pharmaceuticals for a range of ailments. The advantage is that they are completely non toxic with no side effects.

I’m inspired and motivated by finding new ways to help people overcome chronic pain, inflammation, depression, anxiety, and so on, without resorting to prescribed medication. Knowledge is freedom and power, and my aim is to help people take their health and wellbeing into their own hands by showing them how much they can achieve with the things that are available to us naturally. It’s an incredibly exciting field and it teaches me new things every day.

Brand Zero was founded in early 2020, in response to the growing problem of plastic waste and unnecessary packaging, as well as the harmful ingredients found in so many modern skincare and wellbeing products.

I’ve long made creams and essential oil blends for friends and family. During the lockdown, people were experiencing terrible skin problems from increased hand washing and sanitisers. Hospitals were appealing for people to donate hand creams to the staff. I created a fundraiser to supply pots of my soothing beeswax balms to over 1,000 nurses and carers across the Stroud area, and in the process Brand Zero was born.

Since then, the range has grown to include massage oils, bath oils, shampoo bars, aromatherapy oils, organic handmade soaps – in real life the shop smells incredible!

Fifteen years ago, my own health struggles, those of my family and reading the book ‘Deschooling Society’ were catalysts in embarking on a self-reliance journey to reclaim power over food, my family’s health and my children’s education.

I trained as a naturopathic nutritionist in 2019 and now specialise in gut health, drawing especially on ancestral nutrition and traditional Western herbalism. I manage a busy practice in Brighton, incorporating colonic hydrotherapy into my gut-healing protocols. I offer programmes in person and remotely and run regular online group gut reset programmes.

I have been leading foraging workshops since 2020, covering areas such as foraging for food and medicine in survival contexts, foraging for gut health and bespoke foraging events. I’m involved as a parent and foraging teacher at HOPE Sussex Freedom Home Education Hub, where I also co-created a thriving vegetable and medicinal herb garden.

I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with traditional skills and empowering them to take back control of their health.

I will be explaining the main pillars of good gut health, how to tell if things aren’t working well and how to nourish and heal your gut, matching herbs you can find outside your front door to what your gut actually needs. This is useful for people with mild to severe digestive problems, skin issues, autoimmune disease and hormonal imbalance. Even if your digestive health is generally good, these principles can help maintain long-term gut health.

• How to recognise when digestion isn’t working properly.
• Which common wild herbs support different aspects of digestion and are suitable for your gut state.
• How to prepare them safely into simple remedies.

Bash Bashford knows addiction inside out. After a trauma-filled childhood and 25 years of deep addiction, he has now celebrated 18 years of recovery. For the past 6 years, he’s been dedicated to supporting others through their own struggles with addiction using a powerful programme that’s already changing lives—and will soon be shared in his upcoming book.

I (currently) don’t believe there is a cure for addiction but I do believe that addiction can be put into remission and will stay there, all the while you have a daily, active, fun and sustainable recovery plan in place.

Bash opens up about the real root causes of addiction and the common misunderstandings that keep recovery rates low. He’ll also share why meditation, journaling, and exercise are such powerful tools for keeping addiction in remission, along with insights into metacognition and how to truly change thought patterns.

You’ll also hear about the 6 stages of the addiction cycle—from pre-contemplation to recycling—and discover practical ways to move forward at any stage.

Listen to Andie’s other podcast here Reclaim Your HEALTH Sovereignty

Andie Spragg BSc (Hons) ACA FCA is a Health, Wellness and Lifestyle Consultant and founder of the Wholistic Wellness Centre and Mental Health Getaway.

With a First Class Honours degree in Human Biology and Anatomy from one of London’s leading medical schools, Andie has spent more than 25 years studying nutrition, lifestyle medicine, detoxification, neuroscience, psychology, and holistic health. After her own health challenges were not resolved through conventional medical routes, she turned to science, nutrition, and natural health approaches to discover the root causes of illness and restore her own wellbeing.

Today, Andie helps people uncover the underlying causes of a wide range of health concerns including gut issues, hormone imbalances, thyroid problems, autoimmune conditions, fatigue, fibromyalgia, skin conditions, fertility challenges, weight management, dementia, cancer support, and long Covid.

Her work is based on a simple principle: the body has an incredible ability to heal when obstacles to health are identified and removed.

In this fascinating episode, Andie explores one of the most overlooked aspects of health – your mouth.

Many people assume dental treatments are isolated to the teeth, but Andie explains how dental procedures, materials, infections, and everyday dental products may have a far-reaching impact on the rest of the body. Drawing on her extensive knowledge of biology, nutrition, detoxification, and root-cause health, she shares why what happens in your mouth could be affecting your hormones, thyroid, immune system, energy levels, and overall wellbeing.

Modern-day dentistry and how an attempt to preserve your teeth could end up harming your overall health.

We’ll discuss every day dentistry procedures like fillings and root canal. We’ll also dive into how something you’re doing every day could be harming your thyroid and even causing developmental problems in babies and children.

• How good intentions may lead to deadly outcomes
• The 3 things you should be challenging your dentist on
• How something you’re doing every day could be harming your thyroid and causing developmental problems in your children
• How your teeth may be making you sick
• What your dentist doesn’t know and ought to!
• An wholistic approach to dentistry

Gill, a qualified nurse of 50 years, says “a patient is not a patient, they are an individual with something wrong with them. Care is about looking after people in the whole – emotional as well as medical”

My passion has always been encouraging positivity and the right care/treatment for people and particularly those who are disenfranchised. I was trained to understand the needs and wants or individuals and what good care looks like. I have seen older people in their 90’s independent and categorised as not being able to make their own choices due to their age, same with people with learning disabilities and it makes me angry.

A nurse for 50 years with experience in paediatrics, cardiac and occupational health and still practicing.

Owner of Patients2People, focusing on independence and choice and particularly for older people and those with special needs.

First Executive Director of Nursing in the Ambulance Sector.

Well known for NHS services and finance turnaround by focusing on holistic care, technology and choice for people and priority to keep people at home.

Nena is an holistic podiatrist and seasoned Healthcare professional with over 40 years of experience.

Graduating in Foot Medicine; Podiatry & Chiropody. Her early NHS career was focused on treating people with complications of diabetes as a hospital Diabetic Foot Specialist. This involved a lot of wound care, dermatology, education and fighting to save limbs.

With a love of life long learning and curiosity Nena trained and incorporated Reflexology, Emotional freedom Technique EFT, Herbal Medicine, Nutrition, Foot Mobilisation, Red light and laser therapies into her Suffolk practice.

Nena is about to embark on a very exciting new journey by opening an

Energy Enhancement System Centre, the first in East Anglia.

What is my passion and why do this?

I always have and always will want to help people. It is who I am.

To help someone get out of pain and walk out of my clinic with a spring in their step or a smile is for me a moment of joy – Every time! It feels good to make someone’s day and the trust people place in me is humbling.

It is also fun and people are interesting. I have a 94 year old chap who after his treatment often exclaims “Oh good! Now I can run amok!”

I try to have balance in my work and life but it all tends to merge!

Growing organic food, flowers and plants with which to make lotions, potions and teas make me very happy. I need to put my hands in the soil or my bare feet on the ground every day. Grounding really is a thing – back to physics and discharging positive ions!

I make stained glass windows, travel to learn about art history and I go paddle boarding as often as possible in the warm weather.

I also have 3 dogs 3 chickens and 3 grown up children.

My very kind husband and co director of our company who keeps everything running smoothly while I go on my Campervan adventures.

How when one part of the body ‘goes wrong’ it affects other parts. We are all joined up. Treating the whole person, from the feet up or head down because the whole body walks.

Always ask why? Diagnosis involves looking listening and hearing with the ears and the heart. The body talks and if we don’t listen we get sick.

Sometimes a quick fix and symptoms can be suppressed and made to go away using all kinds of interventions but often for true healing to take place it takes time and the removal of the cause.

Plants that grow around us are there for us to use. Natures pharmacy. Powerful free medicine! Garden weeds are awesome and full of goodness with amazing healing properties! Some good tips for feet.

The EE System, healing for body mind and spirit. Nikola Tesla said ”If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration”

Violet Ray Devices: A Forgotten Invention of Nikola Tesla.

I’ve long admired Nikola Tesla, but until a few years ago I had no idea about one of the most curious legacies of his work: the violet ray device.

Tesla is among the most prolific inventors in history. He pioneered alternating current, which powers our modern world, and contributed to early X-ray imaging, wireless communication, radio, and even visionary attempts at wireless global energy transmission with his Wardenclyffe Tower. Among his many inventions, Tesla’s high-frequency “resonance transformers” — better known today as Tesla coils — laid the foundation for a class of electrotherapy devices that became famous in the early 20th century: the violet ray.

How the Violet Ray Works –

At the heart of a violet ray machine is a Tesla coil, which generates a high-frequency, high-voltage, but low-current electrical discharge. This current is delivered through glass electrodes filled with inert gases, usually argon or neon. When electrified, the gas produces a glowing plasma discharge. With argon, the light appears violet — hence the name.

The treatment involved placing the electrode directly on the skin or holding it slightly above, allowing a gentle spark to jump to the body. Users described the sensation as a mild tingling or warmth, often accompanied by a faint ozone smell.

Rise of Electrotherapy

In the early 1900s, electricity was seen as a force of wonder, mystery, and untapped potential. Naturopaths, alternative healers, and even mainstream doctors were fascinated by its possibilities. An article from 1900 captured the spirit of the era when Schaefer declared: “Nothing in modern science causes us so much amazement as electricity, the sovereign ruler of all.”

Manufacturers quickly capitalized on this fascination. Violet ray machines were marketed as miracle devices, capable of treating hundreds of ailments. Advertisements claimed benefits for conditions ranging from arthritis, rheumatism, poor circulation, and nervous disorders to hair loss, skin conditions, digestive issues, cataracts, and even psychiatric illnesses. Some spiritual healers, including Edgar Cayce, even suggested they could aid in cases of “possession” or mental imbalance.

Home-use kits were sold alongside professional medical models. The main difference was the number and variety of glass attachments, each shaped for a particular part of the body. The literature often listed more than 200 ailments the device supposedly treated, making it one of the most widely marketed health products of its time.

Decline and Controversy

Despite their popularity, violet ray devices faced increasing resistance from the mainstream medical establishment, which was becoming more tightly aligned with pharmaceutical-based treatments. By the 1930s and 40s, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration began cracking down on manufacturers for unverified medical claims. Court cases, fines, and stricter regulations led to their decline.

By the late 20th century, only a handful of manufacturers remained, including Holo Electron in France and Tefra in Germany. Today, only Tefra continues to produce a version of the device, though modern units use solid-state circuitry and are generally marketed for cosmetic or relaxation purposes rather than medical claims. Many enthusiasts feel these modern versions lack the power and effectiveness of their vintage predecessors.

A Personal Experience

For me, the violet ray story isn’t just historical curiosity — it’s personal. Years ago, I underwent four surgeries on my right shoulder for repeated glenoid labrum tears. When I later injured my left shoulder, I dreaded the prospect of going under the knife again. Around that time, I discovered violet ray devices and bought a small vintage unit.

After two weeks of daily treatments, my shoulder improved dramatically. The surgery I thought was inevitable was no longer necessary. That experience lit a spark in me — I’ve been collecting, restoring, and researching these devices ever since.

Over time, I’ve heard countless testimonials of people finding relief from arthritis, cystitis, and other stubborn ailments using these old machines. While modern medicine doesn’t endorse such claims, it’s hard to ignore the passion and stories of those who’ve experienced benefits first hand.

Legacy of the Violet Ray

The violet ray is a fascinating intersection of science, invention, and culture. It represents an era when electricity was still seen as a mystical force, a time when inventors and healers believed it could transform health and human potential.

Today, these devices live on as collector’s items, curiosities, and tools for enthusiasts like myself who continue to explore their possibilities. Whether one views them as genuine therapy, quirky pseudoscience, or simply a piece of Tesla’s incredible legacy, the violet ray stands as a testament to human curiosity and our search for healing in unconventional ways.

How Nikola Tesla’s Tesla coil technology led to the creation of the violet ray device.

Why violet ray machines became hugely popular in the early 1900s as electric cure-all devices.

Why the violet ray faded from mainstream medicine but still has a loyal following today.

I’m chair at Waverley dowsers in Godalming, Surrey.

I have been studying dowsing for some years now and am happy to get others to also pick up the dowsing ball and run with it.

It is weird compared to conventional thought and upbringing and, as such, it does require your “suspension of disbelief”. It can get as complex as you care to make it, but there are simple benefits that one can acquire and work with, right from the start.

I’ll attempt to explain this, but like everything we strive to become good at it does take time to make it a subconscious act.

The important thing is that it is fun and, if entered into, with due care, will develop level headedness, as you get results.

Somatic Movement Educator, Embodied Facilitator and Coach.

I have been facilitating, mentoring, coaching and training others for over 40 years. I specialise in holistic health and well being, movement and body awareness, personal development…..and having fun!

Whenever I work with people either as individuals or a group, I start with where they are currently ‘at’ and focus on “what’s possible now and where can it lead to from here”. By combining music with natural movement, I offer the opportunity of both relaxation and invigoration. I aim to bring a creative, fun, yet grounded approach to everything I offer.

I currently offer online classes for participants with MS, as well as online open Energy Moves classes. In person sessions are outdoors in Nature: Move in Nature and Dancing in the Dark for every Full Moon, as well as bespoke sessions for events, gatherings, festivals and projects. I work closely with Arts & Health and Mental health organisations.

• How bringing our attention to what we sense can both help us move more AND honour how our body is in that moment.
• How body awareness can help with changing how we move and how we are in our body.
• How moving ‘our own way’ creates ownership and autonomy.

*In the podcast try out some movements with Fiona that can be done seated or standing.

Sally is a freelance national newspaper journalist, author and ghostwriter. Only one British newspaper has escaped her byline – The Guardian.

Health is a driving interest. She has commissioned and edited alternative health books and in 2022 and 2023 organised two doctors’ conferences with dissenting medical experts.

From the start of the pandemic, she questioned whether issues — including vaccine injury and regulatory oversight — were properly examined. While mainstream titles declined to pursue that perspective, The Conservative Woman has published around 170 of her articles. More recently, the Daily Mail has published two of her investigations into vaccine injury.

I’m really keen to discuss health retreats that address serious chronic health issues.

I’ve launched two retreats in Zanzibar, Deep Reset & Restore which is a clinical hypnotherapy retreat to address chronic stress, burnout, and living in survival mode. And Thyroid Wellness. Thyroid patients rarely get holistic care which means an endless round of specialist appointments, no discussion about nutrition or supplementation or the psychological drivers of thyroid dysfunction, or what to do if you don’t want to take the meds. The Thyroid Wellness retreat is suitable even if you’ve had your thyroid removed or partly removed or if you’ve developed a goitre.

Here are brief details:

focuses on the physiological imprint of chronic stress—working with the nervous system at a foundational level. Over nine restorative days, you’ll step away from the noise of everyday life and begin to recognise the survival patterns—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—that keep the body hypervigilant, depleted or shutdown. With expert guidance, this work becomes less about managing stress, and more about gently retraining your system towards safety, regulation, and a more sustainable energy.

takes a deeper approach to thyroid health by recognising that thyroid dysfunction is rarely the beginning of the story. In our experience, chronic stress is one of the most significant drivers of thyroid imbalance, and meaningful, lasting improvement is difficult to achieve without addressing the underlying stress burden on the body.

The thyroid is often the final signal, not the first signal, that something is wrong. Symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, low mood, and hormonal disruption can reflect deeper imbalances that have developed over time. Rather than focusing solely on the thyroid itself, our holistic approach combines advanced biofeedback diagnostics with personalised care to identify potential root causes, reduce stress, and support the body’s natural capacity to heal.

Mani Hirani is the founder of The Veda Soul Company and a ceremonial guide who weaves cacao, sound, and sacred grid work to support deep inner alignment.

After more than two decades in investment banking, Mani followed a calling toward healing and creative expression, training in cognitive hypnotherapy, shamanic energy healing, and vocal transmission.

Her work invites people into embodied connection with their true essence through ceremony, art, and sacred space.

A theme that has become central to my work is grief as a portal for healing. This comes from my own lived experience, where grief has been one of my greatest teachers. Often grief is something people around us don’t quite know how to hold, so we can feel pressure to rush through it or move away from it altogether. Yet when we allow it the space it asks for, grief can open a doorway to deep healing and transformation.

Through ceremony, cacao, voice, and sacred space, I now support others in gently meeting those tender places within themselves. When grief is met with presence, compassion, and sacred space, it can become a powerful portal back to the heart.

• Grief as a portal for healing, and what it has taught me through my own lived experience
• Why grief is often avoided in our culture, and the pressure many people feel to rush through it
• Creating sacred space for grief through ceremony, cacao, voice, and presence
• The journey from surviving loss to reconnecting with the heart
• How honouring grief can open the doorway to deeper self-understanding and transformation
