Lisa Gray & Paul A Janke | herefordyogafest

Paul originally trained as a management accountant and worked in the finance departments of several companies between 1973 and 1994. Becoming ill, due to being greatly disillusioned with his job, he undertook the four year training in homoeopathy at The College of Practical Homoeopathy (now The Homeopathy College) in Birmingham, opened his homoeopathic practice in 1992 and has been continuously in practice ever since.

With an insatiable desire to learn and to use that learning in service to humanity, the planet Earth and all-of-life, he continues to work on his knowledge-base and is firmly committed to his own personal development. Along the way he has gained Reiki Mastership, a practitioner's certificate in the Emotional Freedom Technique (2006) and has successfully completed a Sound Healing course with The College of Sound Healing (2005 – 2006). Additionally he has been a yoga teacher since 2001, so he is quite bendy for his age...

As well as lecturing in Homoeopathy for nearly twenty years (both in the UK and in Iceland), Paul is also an occasional Lay Service Leader for the Unitarian Church. He gained the PTLLS (Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector) Award in 2012. Additionally, he gives talks and runs seminars and workshops on a variety of health and spiritually-related topics. You might say he likes talking a lot!

Paul practices and lectures with a “heart-centred” approach to these disciplines, combining his expertise with a down-to-earth attitude, compassion, intuition and humour (well, he thinks he's funny, anyway). Having experienced major life / career changes, he deeply understands the power of transformation and facilitates that process in others, enabling them to follow their own bliss and thereby enhance the quality of their lives.

Lisa is a sensitive, caring person who has always been interested in what makes things tick, especially people... Now a counsellor with experience in supporting people suffering from trauma, she believes in working alongside her clients supporting them on all levels to achieve the best possible outcome for them.

Over the years, Lisa's interest in natural health and personal development has flourished. She studied Bach flower remedies as well as undertaking holistic psychotherapy herself and attending systemic constellation workshops.

Born in Solihull, West Midlands and raised on the Mediterranean island of Menorca, she returned to the UK, and more specifically North Herefordshire, out of love for her partner Paul. With his support, she cemented a life-long passion for human psychology by becoming a counsellor. She now combines admin work for a local charity with counselling and other self-development pursuits.
