After a challenging and difficult 2017 and 2018, I decided to change the default future of my life. From waking unmotivated everyday to feeling a sense of desire and meaning, from feeling a lack of control over my future to setting and taking action on big goals. Living with more confidence, excitement and fun! I am now an Accredited NLP Practitioner and Life Coach with a podcast with 35k+ downloads in over 125 countries spanning 300 episodes!

As a director at BGi.uk and several other related businesses I have over 40 years of experience in providing simple solutions to complex risks for clients and brokers in the UK, EEA countries and even the US. BGi.uk is possibly best known for its innovative approach to difficult (complicated/complex) risks and have used this approach in the development of the insurance provided for Holistic Therapists and alternative practitioners and teachers. We are often approached for help in business related risks – including insurance for those organising retreats and other trips which are now classified as ‘tour operator’ activities. The legal responsibilities owed by the ‘retreat organiser’ to their client goes way beyond that considered by most people. Protective insurance is recommended - and in some cases, compulsory. I hope you find the following information helpful. Contact Details Email: Nick.Elwell@BGi.uk.com LinkedIn BGi.uk Website Foyht Website

Swimasaurus is inspired by my own background in swim teaching and my mother’s (co-author) two decades of experience in education. It seeks to shine a spotlight on an often overlooked but vital topic in early years literature and the national curriculum: water awareness and safety. While swimming lessons are mandatory by Year 4 in England, recent data shows that many children still face barriers to accessing swimming lessons before school, often due to financial constraints or limited local pool availability. This worrying trend leaves some children with anxiety of the water and without crucial water safety messages and skills early on. Our aim is to address this gap, not through instruction, but through engaging storytelling that blends imagination, emotional connection, and subtle, memorable lessons. We believe there is a growing appetite for books that transform bedtime reading into meaningful, bonding experiences, where important life skills can be explored naturally and joyfully.

Ever since I was a child I’ve observed people, their behaviour, and the motives behind it. With my inquisitive mind and deep knowing that I wanted to bring insight to both myself and other people I embarked on a two-decade journey of studying many different healing tools and modalities. This ultimately resulted in a closet full of certificates and diplomas focused on healing emotional and mental imbalances. I offer Systemic Coaching, Voice Dialogue and Systemic Constellations both 1-2-1 and online. I offer physical workshops in Systemic Constellations in South Wales every month. For organizations, retreats, and charities I also offer Firewalking, arrow breaking and Glass walking as an empowerment tool.

I am Karen Bresloff, a UKCP Registered Psychotherapist, certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and Sound Therapist with over 22 years of experience in private practice and the public sector. I have worked as an Organisational Psychotherapist for Transport for London and served as Clinical Lead at Khiron Clinic, specialising in trauma recovery. I offer therapy without borders, providing trauma recovery and ‘Coaching for Life’ sessions online for clients in the UK and internationally. My personal journey has deeply shaped my work. Growing up in a military family, I moved between the UK, Europe, and West Africa, experiencing anxiety, loss, and the challenges of constant change. A near-drowning incident at age two and personal family trauma shaped my sensitivity and empathy, which later became my greatest strengths. After an early career in marketing, I turned to psychotherapy following my own struggles with anxiety and a transformative period of personal growth. I trained at the Institute for Arts in Therapy and Education (IATE) and The Minster Centre, qualifying as an Integrative Psychotherapist in 2005. For me, being a psychotherapist is not just a profession but a life in service. I continue to learn every day and am honoured to support others on their healing journeys, drawing on my global experiences, deep compassion, and commitment to lifelong growth.

I am an Australian living in Monaco working as a dog behaviorist. I love to work with animals especially dogs and horses and have always been interested in understanding their behavior. My business is called ‘Happy Dog’, the name reflects my belief that all dogs can be happy if we learn to respect their needs as animals in our human world. I work with dog rescue associations to promote adoption and am involved in animal assisted therapy for elderly people and handicapped children. I help people choose a dog based on practical not emotional grounds so that they get a dog that suits their lifestyle and so is less likely to end up in a dog rescue center because it becomes a problem not a pleasure. I also organize pack walks and dog parks in my area so that dogs and their owners can socialize. Facebook: @HappyDogMC Instagram: @HappyDogMC Email: happydogmc@hotmail.com

Since a young age my life was always drawn to the alternative side of society. When I was 16 years old, my path led me towards spirituality and I met Sri Chinmoy, an inspiring and spiritual person, who is a teacher in meditation and music, as well as an artist and philosopher. I started to practice meditation on a daily basis and my life quickly started to change and move in a very good direction. I stopped smoking, drinking on the weekends, and started to do quite a lot of sports, lost a few pounds and started running. Since then I have run quite a few marathons and a few 10 and 12hr races. Running for me is not just running, it is also deeply healing, it clears my thoughts and emotions and it gives me a lot of energy. Sri Chinmoy really turned my teenage years in the right direction. Over the years the meditation group had a lot of workshops and seminars, where Sri Chinmoy was training us and showing us the art of our thoughts and emotional world. He was teaching us how to control and also transcend our thoughts, especially our negative states of mind and emotions. To learn how to deal with these states, first we have to become aware of what is happening inside of us. For this, meditation is the greatest tool. It brings you awareness of your own thoughts and emotions running deep within you. Once this happens you can easily transcend them. Later I became a member of a girl spiritual band "Blue Flower". We travel the world and offer the experience of meditation through music. The music is deeply healing, composed by Sri Chinmoy and it lifts every heart. Some years later I came across Rapid Transformational Therapy and Marisa Peer. I instantly felt drawn to it, because it just offered so much to me. I found myself in every word and I knew there was something special for me to find. For me the therapy was an absolutely unique experience that I am truly grateful for. Rapid Transformational Therapy made me realise that all that was holding me back was a limiting belief about myself that I thought was true. Since then I am even more dedicated to learn how we can inspire each other and help each other as human beings.
