Projects

SMART school program (Stress Management And Relaxation Techniques) aims to support students, staff and parents.
I trained a team of therapists to deliver my program when the requests from the schools increased.
See the Schools Projects link in the main menu.

I have designed and delivered a series of programs in conjunction with Conflict Mediation groups to various communities around the world. I have taken the program to Africa (Kenya and Ethiopia) and to Eastern Europe (Romania) adapting and developing it to meet the religious and cultural needs of the local communities.

I worked in Whaga (2002) training 70 women in stress management, relaxation and massage techniques through participatory workshops.

The project resulted in the establishment of a school program, stress management clinic and trained mobile volunteers. Plans at that time for a return visit in 2007 to deliver further training for the setting up of more 'Tranquility Centre,has already taken place in Kikambala.
