My name is David Owen and I am here to help you to Rise above and move beyond life's problems, to Feel Good under virtually any circumstances, to Excel Yourself and to Inspire Others.
I got into this work because my life was not working. My schooling had been a disaster and I was tipped out into adult life with almost no confidence and painfully shy. By a miracle I got married at 23, but this only lasted for four years, leaving me separated from my two very young children.
It was time to repair my life and I found that first the Alexander Technique and later Neuro-Linguistic Programming made a massive difference to me. Despite having eventually got a superb job in the BBC, I left in order to train to share the benefits of what I had discovered.
I am passionate about my work. It is one of the world's greatest privileges to be able to genuinely help people, especially when they sometimes achieve such great victories and breakthroughs in their lives.
There is a natural process to grieving and as they say, time can be a great healer. Sometimes though, time does not seem to be making the difference we want and in some cases we need to be able to move on more quickly than the natural process would normally take. Either way, this still needs to be done in a dignified way.
The way I can help you applies just as much to pets, places or even possessions as it does to people and it also works whether we have been parted by death or by separation.
My job is to smooth you respectfully and yet often surprisingly quickly and comfortably through this natural process. I am here to help you to resolve any regrets and leave them behind and then to make it so you can look forward to cherishing the treasured memories you have.
