So that, together, we create a more emotionally-connected and purposeful world for all children to grow up and grow old in.
Learn a simple yet rich daily practice using a bowl and stones to foster gratitude and harness perspective and meaning.
Use a bowl and some stones to learn a totally new paradigm for living your purpose and start living yours today.
- Angharad Davies
My name's pronounced a little like 'Anne Harrod', in case you were wondering! And means 'greatly loved one' - in case you were wondering that too!
If I had to define myself, I'd have to say that I'm creativity meets compassion.
Even from a really young age I always wanted to go the extra mile with school projects to make them different somehow. I've always had a passion and a knack for dreaming up all kinds of ideas and innovations.
And I remember feeling huge sadness and compassion even at six or seven years old for the starving African children and withdrawn Romanian orphans I would see on my TV screen. So it's no coincidence that two of the countries I ended up volunteering in, in my early twenties, were Romania and Kenya.
And now, at not-far-off-fourty, I am so extatic to be able to combine these two sides. To be able to use my creativity and innovation to make a difference to so many people all over the world.
They say motherhood changes your life forever.
They are not wrong!
But I wasn't expecting a double hit to the heart when I first became a mum.
Because along with the deepest love for my child came a reignited flame for my purpose. A purpose that I had found the beginnings of around fourteen years previously when volunteering in a hospital playroom with paediatric cancer patients. And a purpose that I had all but snuffed out just eight years later after realising that I had mistaken my drive for purpose for a need for validation through profession and prestige and had decided to take stock, turn inwards and learn to really appreciate and live the life I had.
But there was always a little piece missing. Something deep down in my soul calling out to become. And when I became a mum I couldn't ignore it any longer. Because I knew that whatever I was called to do, it wasn't just for me. It was for my children. And it was for the world that they would grow up and grow old in.
So I dug deep.
Really deep.

So I dug deep.
Really deep.
I worked on myself.
And I worked on my plans.
Suffice to say, I went through a fair few ideas, wore some very different hats, tried on a few missions for size, but nothing seemed to come close to the feeling I had inside.
Then one day it just appeared.
A thought.
A memory.
Something I had learned about in my early twenties while training in Play Therapy.
A Hawaiian teaching about a bowl of light.
I didn't quite know what to do with it then, but I knew that this was meant to be part of it all.
And slowly - frustratingly at times - as I read and researched, dug out old notes and books, read about recent studies and began to really live a more grateful and meaningful life myself, it all started falling into place.
And I saw Reciprostone® start taking shape before me.
And with it, I could see that the light I was looking for all those many years had been there all along, but it was me who wasn't ready to see it.
So with a grateful heart, a wiser mind, the warm light of purpose, and a bowl and some stones I stepped out into the world to make the big difference I had known I was here to make almost twenty years before.
And the rest is history - in the making.
