The Fisher King Centre - Detox Retreat in Glastonbury
When the Chairman of the International Colonic Association, Katherine Monbiot, contacted me to say she wanted to partner with me after reading a health magazine article about what we were doing, the concept for a detoxification centre in Glastonbury was born. After putting our heads together, we devised the six-day residential ‘Cleansing for Change’ course, which is based on enhanced Dr Bernard Jensen procedures.
Since its inception, The Fisher King Centre has attracted a national and international clientele that includes doctors, nurses, lawyers, therapists, teachers, entrepreneurs, writers, actors, composers, models, life coaches, and those whose lives are in transition and have realised that change requires a quality overhaul of their mental, emotional, and physical selves.
I can honestly say I truly love my work, in the course of which I am often humbled and awed by my client’s jaw-dropping stories of the triumph of the human spirit over adversity.
I feel privileged to have been invited into the inner lives of many of my clients who continue to inspire me.

In collaboration with Michael Cole, a Devon farmer, and a charity that works in the Third World, Michael conducts research and development into the extraction of leaf proteins. This cuisine, made from indigenous green matter, has a far higher nutritional profile than meat, fish, eggs, beans, or milk. This device is currently being employed in Third World pilot programmes as a proven malnutrition remedy. The experiment received national TV and radio coverage on News, BBC Food, and Natural History, as well as approval in an independent report financed by the Department of Trade and Industry.
