These days I can best describe myself as an urban animist or alternatively as a daoist activist. If that sounds a bit contradictory, well, I guess it is; but life is like that. I’m a writer attempting to express an animistic perspective, and an organic gardener with an abiding passion for the living world and our ecological selves. In recent times I’ve become greatly concerned with our pressing climate and ecological collapse, and as a result, have become engaged in eco activism and rewilding. My background was initially a university background in zoology, and then many years of studying and then teaching meditation and communication in a number of countries. I am also a published author: Being British by Chronos Books
