The power of Kundalini Yoga enabled me to work through many old health problems (including chronic pain and impaired mobility due to back injuries and other illnesses). It was this experience which originally inspired me to take Kundalini Yoga teacher training in order to share the teachings with others. At that point I had no idea how this would change my entire life and eventually lead me into work of a very different nature to what I had so far experienced.

I remember well my doubts about taking teacher training, due in no small part to physical impairment, which prevented me from achieving and sustaining certain asanas (postures), and also due to the commitment the training would demand. My teacher, Guru Dharam Singh, told me to just go and do it - and so I did.

More vivid memories exist of a private consultation with Yogi Bhajan, when I was hoping he would agree that having worked so hard all my life I deserved to go into a comfortable semi-retirement, buy an idyllic country cottage, grow vegetables, generally lead a good, quiet life, and teach the occasional yoga class. Well, the Master soon put me right about that, and not at all to my liking at the time! He told me that my real work had yet to begin, that this was it, and that I should get on with it. Not what I wanted to hear then, but now it is a different matter and I have come to understand what human becoming and evolution really mean.

Prior to discovering my true identity and purpose in life, I had a rich variety of life experiences which included a great deal of physical pain and illness, as well as a good amount of emotional 'wear and tear' and stress. This came alongside a varied and 'successful' career in the business world which involved working in mainland Europe and the USA, and subsequently running my own consultancy in the UK. These experiences help me to understand and relate to others who are going through difficult times in their lives, emotionally and physically, and who are facing the challenges involved in manifesting their spiritual values in the material world.

Having continued to run my consultancy business for a number of years while teaching Kundalini Yoga in the evenings, I was ultimately and inevitably drawn to teaching and treating full time, as well as continuing my studies into healing practices. In recent years I have been particularly blessed with the opportunity of setting up 'Sohan Jalaiai' which was completed in June 2000.

In more recent years I have been a tutor at the British Wheel of Yoga Annual Congress and also been privileged to teach workshops for the BWY in various regions of the UK.
