It's a Wonderful LifeIn November 1996 I was made redundant from a senior role within Investment banking industry; I felt lost. I looked for a new role in newspapers and with many recruitment agencies, nothing even sparked my interest. No surprise, I was unsuccessful at all interviews, there was not a new job for me.
In February 1997 I got message that changed my life forever.
At insistence of a close friend I had gone to visit Jean Clarke, a Colonic therapist. During first minute of my initial visit to Jean, she said had a message for me, but was dubious about giving me message. I insisted.
The message was that man in front of her (me) felt his life was over and affect of this would be this. Within two years I would become seriously ill and die within five years. Even love of for my wife and two young sons would not be enough to keep me here. I had given none of this personal information to Jean.
I was shaken; Jeans' message resonated with me as no other ever had. After twenty frustrating years in business life I did feel my life was over. I felt I had been there and done it many times over, there was little more left for me to achieve.
The information came to her as a message. There was another message; if I changed my life and turned towards a role of helping people I would have a long and happy life ahead of me.
The veils began to lift from my eyes. I felt I had hope and my life changed that day in that room in South London. I always bless Jean for being my messenger and guide during this period of my life.
I decided to turn my back on my previous professional life and seek a new path. Fear and excitement came in equal measure, as I once again became a student. This time I was an eager and in time a humble student.
For past six years my life has been a rollacoaster of emotion, fear, joy, happiness and loneliness. I knew general direction I had to travel with no idea as to specifics.
I have always been and remain a true skeptic, open-minded and willing to try.
I journeyed to places I could not have imagined myself going. I first became attuned to Reiki healing and found my life changing. I began to link with wonderful enthusiastic people.
I continued my studies in area of healing such as bio-energy, Journeywork, Higher Self work (which Jean introduced me to) and many other studies.
