Frances has been through the ‘school of life’ and uses her wisdom, intuition and experience to guide and equip her clients to find renewal and live a life of love, joy, peace and abundance.

Richard says: “Before we manage anything else we must manage ourselves. Weight gain is a defence mechanism. The subconscious mind uses the body to send a warning message to the conscious mind. Overweight people know how conscious‚ their weight makes them; this is indeed the intention of the subconscious mind to draw attention to deep latent needs not being addressed.”
Rich agrees that forming good habits play a vital part but feels the secret to achieving genuine weight loss results lies in making a conscious effort to meet one’s deeper needs. This can be done by stimulating personal growth and creating forward momentum.
