I STARTED OUT AS ANY GOOD osteopath and kids coach WOULD. BY DOING A FINE ARTS DEGREE WITH A MAJOR IN PAINTING AND DRAWING...
I remember being told at school I had "potential" but was "lazy". It took my Mum ages just to get me out of bed, and it took me ages to actually feel like I was awake everyday. I also struggled with a constant "cloud" or brain fog, inability to concentrate and a general apathy and disengagement.
It wasn't until I was 34 that I discovered all this was in large part due to the way I breathed while I was sleeping! In three short months I'd completely changed, retrained my breathing and had a whole new energy and motivation! Only catch was that it had taken 20 years to figure that out via visual arts, fitness, corrective exercise, nutritional programs and self enquiry.
So I had a trail of ideas, discoveries and experience to finally weave together by understanding what the ancients taught us thousands of years ago; breathing.
Slowly the pieces came together and while trying to sell my video production services to a room full of people (what???) I finally realised that it was time for the Happy Kids concept to get out of my head and into the world, it's been supported ever since.
