I’m just an ordinary guy – my mind put me through hell for decades.
I’ve been through two burn-outs and almost a nervous breakdown due to work stress. And the general overwhelming pressures of 21st Century living.
To me, at the time, there wasn’t anything worse than going to bed stressed, worried, depressed, desperately sad and unhappy. Knowing that it would all be the same again tomorrow.
I had what the world would call a rather unfortunate childhood. Which I later discovered set me up for stress, anxiety and depression later in life. (Thank goodness it did, or this life-changing program may never have come about)
Despite building a successful career and a life most people would give their right arms for. For 40 years I carried around 3 hidden beliefs. That I was: Stupid, Unloved and Unwanted – so, unworthy of a good/happy life.
Like many people I had accidentally and innocently picked up some limiting, dysfunctional, unconscious programming, I didn’t even know was there.
Like a lot of people building a life and a career. I drove myself way too hard for far too long. Decades of high-pressure job roles took their toll and brought on colossal stress. Which became anxiety and eventually the deepest depression. Which wrecked my health too.
And, trying to hide what was really going on inside from my family (so as not to burden them) and from my boss (because I couldn’t afford to lose my job) just doubled the pressure.
Eventually, in December 2008, aged 45, I was at my wits end. I couldn’t take it anymore and I completely lost the will to live. I didn’t want to be here anymore.
I just wanted to be happy and be able to enjoy life – There had to be a better way to live – I found it.
I’m an Engineer by trade (a born problem solver) with a highly analytical mind and a knack for making complicated things understandable. And a stress-reduction, mindfulness and meditation teacher since 2010.
Growing up in Germany I’d seen the aftermath of suicide, for the families left behind. Not nice. For the love of my family, I somehow found the strength and courage to carry on. I decide not to take my own life (yes, I was that bad) that wasn’t the solution.
I wasn’t going to desert my wonderful family. So I set out to find an answer to my misery that didn’t include alcohol, drugs, medication or endless therapy I couldn’t afford anyway.
For once in my life, being a stubborn ass was a godsend.
Through my technical sales career, I had been very heavily into the personal development genre and studied everything I could, non-stop, for 23+ years. Great stuff. But none of it was helping one bit now.
In early 2009 whilst attempting self-hypnosis to get rid of a migraine. I had an accidental shift in awareness/consciousness, and life started to look very different. It somehow gave me the ability to quickly see the root causes of things.
In 2010, still struggling, out of sheer desperation, I decided to see if I could find a meditation class near me. Luckily, I found a TM (Transcendental Meditation) class just 25 minutes away in Canterbury.
I contacted ‘The Meditation Trust’ and signed up. Meditating twice per day started to bring Big Relief.
In fact, it made such a big difference to the way I felt, that the same year I re-trained and became a stress reduction, mindfulness and meditation instructor.
Within a few months though, I realised that it still didn’t provide the inner peace, I was searching for. I wanted to be happy and at ease from up-time to bedtime. So, back to the drawing board – AGAIN. This was not going to beat me.
I kept on searching, obsessively working on myself 24/7. 1000’s of hours of deep meditation. Studying far and wide for what turned into another 7 years.
Along the way, I tried anything and everything that looked like it could possibly help me. NLP – EFT – Life Coaching – Hypnosis – Yoga – Reiki etc etc etc. All good stuff, each helped in its own way, but there was something missing.
Something big was missing. Because none of them brought about the uptime-to-bedtime inner peace, contentment and happiness I was so desperately craving.
Eventually, thanks to YouTube, I started coming across enlightened Eastern Masters and their ancient wisdom. Suddenly everything started to make sense.
Once more I started studying everything I could find. Their books, courses and video’s. Endless trial and error on myself and, in late 2017, while sitting in meditation one morning, I found the secret.
The holy grail, the E=Mc2 for inner calm, contentment and genuine, maintainable happiness (joy actually). I had finally discovered the root causes and solutions for all of my stress and unhappiness.
I call it HAPPY ONION LIVING (HOL), the MISSING LINK that eluded me for so very long.
I now teach the insights, tools, strategies and techniques my mentors taught me. Plus the missing link I discovered and developed to free myself, to anyone who is ready to learn how to free themselves. And peel away the ridiculous daily pressure of 21st Century living.
Now you too can create a calm, happy and enjoyable life. Full of inner peace, happiness and mental well-being.
My core belief is that if a person has information that could help another. It is our absolute duty as human beings to share it. And that’s what I’m offering you.
Let’s work together. You can learn to progressively Free yourself from negative thoughts, feelings, beliefs, behaviours and unhappiness.
I’m nothing special. If I can do it, with a bit of guidance, so can you.
Time to peel away the pressure, live and enjoy life with ease.
