Mike is an author, life coach, and mentor who shares his transformative journey in his latest book. This journey has led him to embrace the power of mind-body wellness. After years of distraction and denial, a serious car accident triggered a profound awakening, guiding him toward self-discovery and healing. With over a decade of experience in holistic practices, Mike has developed a framework that integrates traditional wisdom with modern science. His dedication to nurturing both body and mind has enriched his life. Now, he aims to inspire others to pursue their paths to holistic health and vibrant living.

In today’s world, numerous tools merge traditional wisdom with evolving scientific insights to explain why certain practices work. However, significant debate, confusion, and even political agendas can mislead individuals. In my early experiences, I measured progress based on how I felt. However, when faced with stress and anxiety, it became challenging to evaluate subjective results since each day felt different. What worked for some people didn’t necessarily work for others. I explored various traditions and practices, adopting what resonated with me. Yet, it wasn’t until I began measuring results objectively that I could open my perspective and recognize that some approaches required a different strategy.

Changing my habits, values, and beliefs took years of study and research, during which I made many mistakes. As my understanding deepened, I learned to combine quantifiable data with subjective feedback from my body and mind, leading to a more cohesive approach to health. By taking responsibility for my wellbeing and collaborating with scientific experts genuinely interested in humanity’s health, I discovered how to achieve the balance in body and mind that had previously felt elusive. Although I made progress, I still didn’t feel fully balanced or experience life as it was meant to be. Finding this foundational understanding allowed me to consider longevity. What I needed to do to remain physically fit and healthy in my later years—my goal is to “die young, as late as possible.”

My holistic and therapeutic development includes various courses contributing to my ongoing growth. I view everything as a work in progress, which helps me manage my emotional wellbeing and gain a better understanding of myself, my life, and my clients.

This comprehensive list reflects my commitment to ongoing professional development and my dedication to enhancing my skills in holistic health and wellness,

that followed my high stress corporate and military careers.

It’s been many years since I have successfully learned to live without the medication that I was once told I would need for life. Throughout my journey, I have experienced numerous unexplainable scenarios and healings, allowing me to better understand and empathize with others based on my life experiences.

I have travelled to over 40 countries and spent approximately 18 years living outside the UK, including time in the Middle East, Germany, and Spain. I have also enjoyed extended stays in Thailand and India, which I hold dear.

Since 2017, I have been a member of the Yoga Alliance, an organization dedicated to promoting health and well-being and raising global consciousness. This association operates within an ethical framework that encourages peace, love, and coherence within the body.
