Contemplating the setting sun of 2016 from a little island in the Indian Ocean I am moved to gratitude for the many blessings, both personal and business, that flowed to us this year.

Thanks to all who attended our courses, most of which were full.  Thanks to everyone who read my books: this means so much to me, to be able to share the knowledge and the practices that have changed my life for the better.

Thanks too for the challenges: especially the fire that rendered our workspace unusable for three months in our busiest time, that made us appreciate the space when restored, and to our host Monika at Kentish Town Studio who sorted out the insurance, and to Sasha Hollis and her dad Mike who came to the rescue by providing alternative space at Carlton Primary School.

Thanks, long life and good health to my teachers and inspiration, Master Mantak Chia and Dr Richard Bandler.

Above all, thanks to my beloved partner Anamarta who shares love, life, and work with me.

I look forward to 2017 when the trickster Monkey makes way for the show-off Rooster!
