Welcome

Welcome to my Return To Stillness website. My aim is to give you the best information, assistance, experience and products I can within the bounds of my training, experience and available time.

Please take time to explore this site, read the stories and explanations, watch the movie and enjoy your time here. If you need more information, or would like my help with a specific challenge, my contact details are just a click away, and I will be pleased to hear from you.

I look forward to hearing your comments, suggestions and stories.

Our Practice

Watch the Mind, Body and Soul videoThis practice and website were born from my training and experience after facing many joyful and challenging times. Some of that story is told in About Us, while more detail is available in my autobiography, Shaky Past, soon to be available on this site. My About Us page will also give you details of my darling wife and partner, Nichol Hebert, and how she enhances my practice.

Those who are challenged with neurodegenerative or autoimmune disorders may want to watch the movie, then read Stop Parkin' and Start Livin', my book on recovery.

While it is aimed at those with Parkinson's disease, the principles apply to all degenerative disorders. My Parkinson's Disease and Multiple Sclerosis page gives some basic detail about how I can help you improve your health when challenged with degenerative disorders.
