In this short audio I talk about one of the strange neurological distortions that occurs in chronic #stress  states:.  Called 'Alice in Wonderland Syndrome', it is a form of somatic dissociative response that occurs when the nervous system fails to relay the correct  proprioceptive (sometimes also called kinaesthetic -w here the body is in space) information back to the brain. 

It often occurs after trauma to that body part but may also be globalised as in chronic pain.
I believe it relates to a memory of threat. 
Here how it shows up in some people and what you can do about it.

Next book mentioned here is provisionally titled "
Life after Death: Messages from my Parents in the Afterlife and my aim is to publish this over the summer so it should be live within a few weeks.

in this short audio I talk about my latest book which is a big departure for me as it's a personal account of going through a dementia journey with my mum and the 9 lessons I learned. The emphasis  here is on it being a journey you can navigate without fear.

In this podcast I talk about the second Emotional AUDIT programme which builds and adapts what i learned from running the first ever one last year. A chance to learn about and heal your attachment wounding and reverse longstanding issues of chronic symptoms like fatigue, pain and anxiety. Please note that you only now get 1 week between modules as from student feedback people didn't want to wait that long!

I n this 8 mins podcast I raise the important of a spiritual connection when healing. And I'm not talking about spirituality as religion or a belief system but the sense of connection to some purpose higher than your own physical self.

In this 30 min presentation I discuss the brain and physiology
