- Q. How did you come to write Wishing?
- A. I wrote Wishing nine years ago, because I wanted to share my knowledge, experience, and understanding of how we create and manifest everything in our lives. I was fortunate, my mother was a yogini one of the pioneers of yoga in the UK. She taught me yogi philosophies and this wisdom is now the basis of many New Age books and teachings. So I felt an urge to share this, but in a grounded and practical way. I regard Wishing as a recipe book. Similar books just contain the ingredients but no recipes making Wishing one of the most practical books on the market - and one of the most beautiful.
