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.
Fears Phobias Anxiety and Panic attacks
I have gentle, respectful, comfortable ways to rapidly and effectively get you over fears and phobias. these include: Fear of flying; Fear of heights; Fear of traveling; Fear of water; Agoraphobia - fear of open spaces; Claustrophobia - fear of being enclosed; Fears or Phobias of Spiders, Snakes, Dogs or Birds and just about any other fear that may be getting in the way of someone living life happily, healthily, safely and to the full.
Phobias form very quickly, as if someone was throwing a switch. They can often be turned off, usually permanently, just as quickly. The main thing that takes time in dealing with a phobia is uncovering the original trigger. This can be done surprisingly comfortably.
Fears and anxieties such as the fear of flying have usually developed over time, often by dwelling on something that never actually happened to ourselves. Again, the process can be reversed and the worries gently dismantled.
Panic attacks, which are usually caused by the fear of actually having a panic attack, can be quite a challenge to most practitioners. However, I have been having significant successes in dealing with these recently. One lady recently had been suffering from them for 28 years. She got over them in just a few hours.
