Why is this website different? Because if you have ever asked yourself any of the following questions then you are in the right place ........
All of us have asked our self at least one of these questions, if not more, and then continued to have a frustrating time, flailing about trying to make ourselves feel better but in the end not really changing anything.
On my website and blog, I want to share some of my long professional and personal experience looking at contemporary problems and trends and suggesting ways all of us can take effective action to bring about fulfilling change in our life that benefits both us and those around us.
For a start, you are going to feel a whole lot better about yourself! When you start to let go of other people's rules and ideas about who you should be and how you should behave, then you get in touch with the most powerful tool you have - your uniqueness!
Even identical twins have unique, individual characters. And that's what the world needs right now, people with new, individual, creative thoughts and original ideas. That's how it moves forward positively, that's what makes a difference. None of us is the same as anyone else.
That needs to be celebrated, not shied away from! Fearfully trying to be like everyone else will not make you feel essentially better about yourself. Acknowledging your special and unique identity, however, will increase your confidence tenfold and affect everything you do and say and your relationships with everyone and everything around you.
When you take significant positive steps to change your life you will feel far more fulfilled and satisfied.
Get immediate access to more information, regular blog posts and a twice monthly Newsletter, the "Life Matters News Digest". It's all free.
Feeling better about yourself will also lead to new opportunities and new adventures. Confidence, rather than living in fear, leads to more boldness - and nothing new is ever experienced without being a little bit bolder than before.
The alternative is to endlessly repeat the old and familiar - and there is no fun in that! Once you step a little bit outside your comfort zone, you will discover that you quickly acquire new skills, new relationships and new ideas to expand your life still further.
I can't promise to make you rich in financial terms, that is not what this website and blog is about (though money is still useful energy). What I can promise is that if you read my blog and newsletter regularly you will be inspired to do things in your life a little bit differently and make it far, far richer in terms of overall quality and life experiences.
When you take significant, positive steps to change your life you will feel far more fulfilled and satisfied with yourself and what you have accomplished. Do you want to reach the end of your life (whatever your age now) and look back on a life of satisfaction and achievement - or feel hollow and empty inside, wondering what your life was all about?
Life is good, really good. That's down to you and the help you gave me. Thank you so much for helping me rebuild myself. This is the happiest I have been.... maybe ever...
Life changing, superb, one of the best things I ever did. THANK YOU ! Your methods work beautifully for me. Worth every penny.
Peter has been a rock for me from day one. His help and advice have changed my life. Not only has Peter helped me with my personal issues that I thought would cloud me for life, but he has shown me that no idea or dream is silly and everybody deserves to be happy. I dread to think where I would be or what kind of a person I would be had it not been for his support. I certainly wouldn't be even half as confident as I am now.
Peter has worked as a therapist for decades. He has a singular and true commitment to his work and support of his clients the likes I have never met before.
Now is the time to start learning and exploring once again and to take action for a more fulfilling and happier future .....
Over the next 15 years I did more than fifty jobs and learned a great deal about myself, including that there are not many things that I cannot turn my hand to if necessary.
My experiences included living in five countries besides the UK and working in a further seven countries, as well as visiting many more.
The work I have done has been as varied as a sales representative, a hospital stores porter, a zoo keeper, a school caretaker, a cutter on a banana plantation, a special needs teacher, a pool lifeguard and working at the Oxford University Press, to name just a few.
I also crossed a large part of Africa overland, spent a short time in a Sudanese prison and walked 500 miles through Greece.
Somewhere along the line, all of this experience came together and I discovered alternative medicine - first spiritual healing, then counselling and eventually independent psychotherapy, having a good dose of therapy myself along the way.
For over 40 years I have used my skills in these areas to help others to overcome painful and debilitating childhoods, sort out unfinished emotional and relationship problems, to re-build confidence and overcome anxiety, particularly after break-ups, and to motivate and empower everyone to be the best that they can be.
Many physical problems have also disappeared as a result of dispelling these crucial emotional and psychological blocks to creative living.
I have also given talks, run workshops and seen clients not only in the UK but in the U.S.A., Barbados, Austria, France, Germany, Australia and notably Japan.
I visited Japan two or three times a year for seven years helping people to understand themselves more clearly, including working with Buddhist monks and Shinto priests (male and female) at a 1,000 year old monastery in Kyoto and other locations throughout the country, enabling them to work through the problems created by their own childhoods.
Yes, Buddhist and Shinto priests have problems too - and if I have learnt one thing it is that pain, restrictions and emotional damage are universal and worldwide and are common to all of us, including myself.
Working through it all seems, in my view, the reason why we are here, to learn and grow spiritually and emotionally in life and, with a calm satisfaction, move on at the end to whatever is next with a better understanding of our spiritual selves in particular, and the universe and how it works in general.
Now is the time to start learning and exploring once again and to take action for a more fulfilling and happier future .....
More recently I have travelled less and for 15 years became much more involved with my local community, using my skills to support issues as diverse as the development of a new local health facility, chairing a parish council, encouraging the creation of new wildlife habitats and a long distance biodiversity trail and the planting of trees.
Over the years I have learnt that although it is problems in our early childhood that hold us back most as adults, even given a loving supportive experience in our early years no-one can attain their full potential if they grow up in oppressive, restrictive, sectarian dominated and unequal societies.
During the last few years I have therefore used my skills in writing and communication to promote and advance the cause of human rights, equality, diversity and democracy worldwide - learning a lot about new technology on the Internet along the way!
I spent a great deal of time exposing lies, distortions and double-speak and undermining and debunking despots, dictators and authoritarian governments wherever they may be. I also wrote a lot about the revolutions and wars in North Africa and the Middle East and as a consequence, there are certain countries which it would now be "unwise" for me to visit.

What Readers Say About My Writing .......
You did an awesome service reporting the Syrian conflict particularly the Kurdish region. The awareness you brought to me has made an impact on my life.
Peter really deserves a Pulitzer for his persistent, diligent reporting.
​Dammit, your interesting articles are keeping me from my Tom Clancy.
In September 2016, having given 3 full days a week researching and writing my blog for 5 years, I decided to take a short break while I moved house and country. This developed into a four year space while I re-evaluated my own life and took stock of my new environment and what I want for the future.
Now I am back online and have decided to do some more writing giving my personal thoughts and views on what I see and hear happening in the world and hoping that this will inspire others to take action and empower them to make their own changes so they can get the very best for their own life and for those around them.

I also continue to spend a lot of my time in the south of France, where I am now located, reading, writing, working a little, walking in the mountains, training and exercising, enjoying the sunshine, meditating and sometimes valuing life immensely by doing absolutely nothing at all. There has to be life away from the computer and the phone!
I have been open and candid here and that is the ethos which I like to bring to my website. More of what I intend to do and what I think and feel in general about life can be found on the Home page, on the Blog page and in the Newsletter. Join me in the journey to bring out a better version of ourselves - the better self that we always knew was there.
With every encouragement for your new start,
Now is the time to start learning and exploring once again and to take action for a more fulfilling and happier future .....
