So this episode signals the end of Season 1
It's been a great experience running the podcast so far and I'm keen to continue, but there are some 'life' things that need to be attended to right now...
Please listen to the episode where I try to explain what the state of play is and why I am taking a step back... As well as looking to the future for Season 2 and beyond... I'm interested in going to the next level with the podcast but in order to do that I really need to know what you want to hear!
So dear listeners, please do send a message with your thoughts and suggestions to [email protected] or if you'd prefer to leave an anon comment then you can visit our feedback page.
There will be more to come in the future... At the very least an update on new developments and direction will come in the next few weeks to a month...

In episode Twelve of the podcast, Simon your host, interviews his friend Jody Patterson, about his experiences of discovering the mystical aspects of life, to discovering his spiritual teacher and joining a spiritual community.
Jody talks about his early spiritual experiences through dance, being drawn to a path of enlightenment, and life within a post-modern spiritual community, with very traditional overtones.
Jody speaks about his time of becoming a formal student of Andrew Cohen's Evolutionary Enlightenment and becoming celibate...
We explore some of the conflicts within the community, from the traditional basis to the the issues with hierarchy and superiority.
We also look into the mess that some Western Gurus have left in their wake... and the impending responsibility of Jody's imminent fatherhood...
This episode is a kind of Companion episode to Marc Pell's interview, episode 005 - and if you're interested could be the foundation to a 'trialogue' between Marc, Jody and myself...
In episode Eleven of the podcast, Simon your host, interviews Maggie Richards, a Mindfulness and Meditation teacher, Somatic Experiencing Trauma Therapist and author of A Guide to Being a Better Being by Maggie Richards - out this year!
In this episode we explore Maggie's path of development and the beginning of her spiritual path, her journey to becoming a Meditation and Mindfulness teacher and learning Somatic Experiencing, as well as how she discovered her Spiritual Teacher, transforming herself in the process...
Maggie talks about her experience of living a heart-centred path and how her destiny aligned to bring her to where she is professionally and spiritually in her life now.
We get a bit esoteric in this episode and discuss the human journey, why we are 'here' and the lessons we have to learn as human incarnations on this earth...
It all comes down to love, taking responsibility for our own development and getting out of your own way!
Have a listen to the episode and join in the conversation. Please leave a comment below about your own experiences on the path :)
Maggie is currently working through the publishing process with her publisher and doesn't have a publication date as yet... In the podcast (which was recorded over a month before release) she was looking to use another book title and other publishing options... Things can change quickly :)

The Shiatsu Guy Presents… episode 008 - The Untethered Soul, Forgiveness and Heartmath - First mini-Rant from Simon, the show host
The intention was to produce a short (20-30 minute) bite-sized episode featuring me presenting some of my thoughts and ideas that I felt would be helpful or useful for my listeners...
In this case we've got around 50 minutes of me rambling... But I hope you find it interesting and/or useful... I tried to keep to a set of notes, so imagine how it could have gone without!
This is based around my experience of being involved with a spiritual community, the disillusionment that occurred when the teacher was de-throned (I must watch too much Game of Thrones!), and my journey out the other side...
In this, at times ranty, episode I share my experience of three 'heart-centred' techniques that have helped me on my journey and I believe would help any human-being on this earth!
And I wanted to share a quote that made me laugh when I listened back to the recording
"There were a lot of broken eggs in the omelette that Andrew made"
Now you'll have to listen to work out what the heck I'm on about! ;)
