Rosemary Hood

  Rosemary's unending love and care for animals extends to passing on her knowledge and experience to those keen to expand their own capabilities and awareness for improving the welfare of themselves and of the animals that come into their lives.

Here are some comments from past and present students:

"Rosemary taught me that you cannot be in harmony with a creature, or nature, which you have dominated and subdued, but you can be in harmony with all of nature with empathy, love and understanding."  Jackie

"Rosemary has shown me a whole new way to both communicate and relate to the animals in my life." Riana

"Meeting and learning from Rosemary has been a life changing experience for me for the better." Sharon

"Rosemary has encouraged me to develop and trust in my own abilities as a healer." Sue

Sue Jacobsen

Sue has had a love for horses all her life. She is pictured here with her horse Prince who is 28 years of age.  They have been together for 24 of those years, enjoying their weekends both show jumping and eventing.  Sue's passion for these magnificent friends led her to a career in Equine and Small Animal Bowen Therapy.  Sue has been successfully treating these animals for over four years and is now furthering her qualifications in Human Bowen Therapy.  Over the past few years Sue has also enjoyed participating in many and varied energy and alternative seminars and workshops.

Jan Duncan

 Jan Duncan has been exploring alternative therapies and psychic phenomena since 1982 when she first discovered Reiki with Wanja Twan.  Always a sensitive person, Reiki let Jan develop her intuition and empathy to a point where healing the mind and body was almost second nature.  Jan studied many disciplines but what held the most fascination was energy work and the human mind.

Passionate about the feelings and wellbeing of those with no voice, the animals and trees, Jan worked as a natural therapist for pets for some time. 

After a traumatic period in her life Jan received hypnosis from Dr Rick Collingwood and it made such an impact that she decided to study and practice it herself.  In hypnosis Jan found her passion.

Jan now uses the skills and gifts developed over her lifetime to help people to find a better way to live their lives.  The "Woman Spirit" series of hypnosis CDs recorded by Jan was born out of a desire to help women of all ages find and develop their own strengths, and to create the life of their dreams.
