A debt of gratitude

Some 20 years ago, Raymond had the privilege of attending a series of workshops and lectures in London presented by Niravi Payne, an internationally recognised specialist in mind body fertility therapy. She was the founder and director of the ‘whole person fertility programme’ and the ‘whole person fertility professional training institute’ in New York.

​

Her passion and clear vision inspired him to continue her work in London. Sadly, Niravi passed away some 10 years ago – Raymond remain indebted to her. The Apex Conscious Conception Programme is fundamentally based upon much of her research, teachings and experience.
