Hi from Sam

[samdeane]

Hi,

My name is Sam Deane and I am a new member to this community.

I was born and brought up in Edinburgh, the extraordinarily beautiful capital city of Scotland. 20 years ago I moved to another capital, namely London, to do a college course in the field of publishing. Because it was not in my plans at the time, it surprises me still to say thet I've been here ever since!

I worked in the publishing industry for 15 years, running my own successful travel magazine publishing house which still survives today. I published the market leading consumer title The Travel & Leisure Magazine.

However, as you will recall, the foot and mouth break-out in the UK was quickly followed by 9/11.The combined impact wreaked havoc in the travel and publishing industries. So, I decided to change career and become trained in the field of life coaching, a field I had become increasingly more involved in.

I have lived in an area of East London called Bow for nearly 16 years. I absolutely love it here, being so close to the centre of London and also so close to the beautiful Victoria Park, my favourite of the many beautiful parks in this city.

I am the proud father of my 18 year old daughter Sula Mae who is currently studying to become a lawyer and solo singer/songwriter. She has blessed my life and I smile as I think of how the sun walks behind her.

I am a qualified life coach. I gained my Life Coaching qualifications through the internationally recognised Results Life Coaching organisation.

One of the most well-known credentials of Sam Deane is that I am the author of the Break Your Habits Now! - The Habit-Buster's Handbook. I wrote this 220 page book in order to support people to transform their lives by breaking free from their own addictive behaviours.

The internationally renowned "Break Your Habits Now! - The Habit-Buster's Handbook" draws from my own personal experience of addiction, and those of my many clients. In this valuable book, I share powerful tools, techniques and concepts to help you live the life you choose, the life you truly deserve.

I have a great deal of experience in the area of facilitating personal growth, having completed the full curriculum at Landmark Education and also having played a part on the weekend teams of over 25 More To Life Weekends.

I am a qualified mentor in Self Esteem Enhancement and the Power of Self Esteem. I am also a volunteer coach for the Youth at Risk program’s Energy4Enterprise scheme, coaching young people in local schools within deprived areas of East London.

I am skilled in the use of Neuro-Linguistic Programming and the revolutionary new Emotional Freedom Technique.

I am proud to say that, in 2003, after 5 years in training, I became a Reiki Master, a great honour and a very humbling experience.

That same year, I was taught the skills of Transcendental Meditation, a practise I perform for an hour a day every day and have done for almost 2 years now. The results for me so far include increased groundedness and a greater ability to respond rather than react to circumstances.

Right now my main focus is on supporting people into re-experiencing themselves as a non-smoker. I use the latest way to stop smoking ... The Be Smoke Free Now™ Program, an extremely powerful cutting-edge methodology, is undoubtedly the most effective quit smoking program I have ever come across.

I couold talk all day about this but I am concerend you will think of it as advertising. I am so passionate about the work I do. I am sorry if it seeps out at inapporpriate times though I make mo apologies for my stand to make the world a healthier place for all.

Well that is all from me for now (quitre enough I'm sure you'll agree!)

Have a great weekend. I look forward to getting to know you in the near future hopefully.

Love and light

from Sam Deane.
