Franklyn, in our hearts

‘Health can be defined as the emergence of Originality’ (James Jealous)

Originality flowed from Franklyn. He inspired so many of us to go beyond the limits of our conditioning and beyond the limits of everyday perception, into the unimaginable depth of interconnection at the heart of our humanity.

If you missed his memorial service here is a link to where you can view it.

CSTA Presents: In Conversation with Etienne Peirsman
1st October at 7pm

Join us for a transformative talk with Etienne Peirsman on the Midline—our ultimate guide in craniosacral work.

From the first spark of life, the Midline brings clarity of purpose, placement, and timing, guiding the creation and ongoing renewal of the body.

Etienne will explore its profound role not only in embryology but also in our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual evolution.

Discover how connecting to the Midline awakens us to limitless potential, deep presence, and the intelligence that underlies all healing.

Thank you to Dr Mauro Zappaterra for the profound information he shared with members yesterday. It was a privilege to share time with him and his generous heart. Thanks to Beatrice Doubble Health & Wellbeing for holding court with such care.

We are delighted to announce this special presentation from Dr. Mauro Zappaterra, MD, RPP, RCST on Wednesday 24th September at 7pm, Live & Online.
Dr Zappaterra is a highly experienced physician specializing in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Pain Management, with a focus on holistic healing and regenerative medicine. In addition to his medical training, Dr. Zappaterra has extensive experience in Reiki, Energy Studies, and Healing Arts, integrating these modalities into his clinical practice to treat the whole patient. He will be discussing some of his pioneering discoveries about the remarkable role of cerebrospinal fluid.
From Dr Zappaterra: ‘By synthesizing anatomical, biochemical, and metaphysical perspectives, this talk advances an integrative framework of CSF as a conductor of both biological intelligence and consciousness. It argues for reimagining consciousness not as an isolated brain phenomenon but as an emergent property of a fluid, interconnected system linking body, mind, and cosmos. This paradigm invites new directions in psychedelic research, mind-body therapies, and the science of human flourishing.’
