Latest adventures.

I have published my article “Was the Buddha a Shaman? Buddhism, Shamanism and the Nature of Consciousness” on this site. The link is in “other writings”. I aspire to make all of my articles available online.

In Poland - in English translated into Polish an apprenticeship in Relational Intelligence skills. This includes Voice Dialogue themes like Finding the Guardian of your Inner Child and Making your Inner Critic your Best Friend, plus a week long Summer School  focussed on communications skills. And I encourage everyone to participate in Family Constellations, as client, and representative and observer to immerse yourselves in relational intelligence skills and knowledge. see www.foley.com.pl.

In Brussels in February 2011 I will teach Conceptual Constellations

And now – about me

I read. I write. I teach. I have fun. I want you to have fun.

I teach Relational Intelligence. I’m considered to be a relationship expert. As long as we agree it takes two to make a good relationship, I’ll admit that I am. I teach relationships through Breathwork, Voice Dialogue (Hal and Sidra Stone’s method), Family Constellations (Bert Hellinger’s work), Conceptual Constellations (my work) and Energywork (mine too). Mostly I teach in Switzerland (Lausanne) where I live, and in Warsaw for Ewa Foley’s ISI Seminars.

I’ve written several books and am translated into eleven languages. I have to write that to convince myself. My Inner Child who always wanted to be a writer, is amazed.

Now out in English, my book FAMILY CONSTELLATIONS: A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO UNCOVERING THE ORIGINS OF FAMILY CONFLICT. It’s the fifth language for this book. I’m excited. I’ve set out the basic rules and regularities for getting the best out of yourself, your relationships and your family as discovered by Bert Hellinger through his Constellation method. Bert’s written an introduction.

Soon JE RESPIRE BIEN (Jouvence Pratiques) will be available. In Polish it’s called I BREATHE THEREFORE I AM. It should be out in English this year. You will be amazed how much you can learn about yourself only through the four phases of one breath: in, pause, out, pause. All of life is in these four phases. Enjoy.

And currently working on STRENGTHENING YOUR INNER CHILD: A WORKBOOK. It’s going well.

Children’s Books and Stories. When grandchildren came, so did children’s stories – pouring out. I took the Institute of Children’s Literature courses. This is one of the most thrilling challenges of my life and enriches all my other activities.  Soon I’ll get brave and put some stories on this site.

It’s glorious springtime here in Switzerland. Magnolias all over, camellias too. I miss the rhododendrons that grow so abundantly in London and the UK. Soon I’ll get the geraniums out on my balcony. And last night’s nearly full moon was magnificent over the lake. It turned the whole world silver.
