Role at Solara Academy
Ian is a senior instructor and blogger for Solara Academy having spent over twenty years with the program. His passion is to assist people in escaping the tyranny of their intellect’s expectations so they can find peace and fulfilment, living their true feeling nature.
Early Journey and Education
Ian’s journey this lifetime was via a science degree and teaching diploma from Monash University then a music diploma from The Hague leading to a career as a bassoon player, culminating in twelve years in the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
Spiritual Awakening and Life Shift
With the new millennium he recognised that spiritual understanding was his real purpose in life, so he walked away from the orchestra to pursue Trance Healing and instructing – particularly the Pathways courses – which became Ian’s new ‘Stairway to Heaven’.
Philosophy and Insights
The vast regrouping that followed has given him a deep understanding of human nature and the pitfalls which await us on a planet run from the blinkered view of the intellect. He delights in facilitating the miracles of personal healing and transformation that the Solara program regularly produces.
Current Focus and Offerings
Now based on the NSW Central Coast, Ian is eager to assist wherever he can to help heal and revitalise through personal consultations, online courses, workshops and healings.
Guiding Mission
His thrust is: “The Power of my Insights I use in pursuit of Freedom for All”
