Andrew's Story

Andrew has worked with hundreds of people over the last 20 years within different healing modalities. Prior to this he worked in the corporate world as a managing director of a large travel company in Kent.

He came to a fork in the road questioning more deeply the nature of reality, why am I here, what is my purpose, after becoming quite ill from the huge stress that this role demanded. He had all the trappings of material success, the Porsche, the PA, the money, the kudos, but felt so empty and disillusioned with life.

This spiritual awakening was very strong and eventually he had to give in and left that world for good, and went back to his childhood home in Glastonbury in Somerset to embark on a healing journey, and a quest to know thyself.

The Path of Learning

Andrew embarked on various teachings including becoming a Reiki and Seichem Master healer, plus many years as a Shamanic healer. He also became a breath work therapist, a clinical Hypnotherapist, and a Master NLP practitioner.

He then worked with sacred psychedelic plant medicines from the Amazon jungle that have been used by Shamans for thousands of years. After a couple of years of intense training as an apprentice with these plants plus deep Shamanic training, he began to facilitate as a Shaman (a spiritual intermediary, navigating between the physical and spiritual realms to assist people to access their divinity) sacred circle retreats within Europe for 16 years.

During this time and through studying eastern spiritual philosophy as a committed meditator, a great spiritual figure was presented as a great light of wisdom and truth. After reading Yogananda's spiritual teachings, Andrew found himself diving ever deeper into this work, it was like coming home to the real truth of who we are, and it was as if he had known him from previous life experiences.

After years of studying with the Fellowship Yogananda set up in 1920, Andrew became a Kriyaban and a yogi, a practitioner of Kriya Yoga pranayama meditation and philosophy. This practice goes back to over 5,000 years ago and has been used by the great spiritual Masters, Avatars, Sages and Yogis, devotees to the Divine of all faiths, and souls of no faith.

A Life of Service

Andrew's life now is dedicated to assisting fellow souls on this planet who have a will in wanting to understand themselves through their conscious awakening process, which can be for many very daunting and confusing. Every person he works with teaches him more about himself, being the student to the divine, as every human has their own unique way of expressing their divinity through their own personal karmic story.

"To be of service in assisting people to understand more of who they truly are from both a theoretical perspective and more importantly from direct experience is a real privilege and passion. To come back into alignment and union with the mind, body and soul, and to become self realised is the greatest work we can do here on this planet for ourselves and on behalf of God."

To assist people along this spiritual journey who are walking the path back home continues to be a real joy.
