I'm setting up 'GForce 'Resilience Training' social enterprise with the help of the Lloyd's Bank Social Entrepreneurs Program and also hopefully publishing my book in the near future! G Force will teach Resilience, sustainable and innovative methods for optimising how we meet our basic needs for food, shelter, energy and water. G Force will provide a route for people to save energy and money and increase their adaptive capacity to disasters whether economic or environmental.<br />
We recently received a grant from Somerset Community Food to build two perpetual edible community gardens, that immediately increase resilience by encouraging vegetables to grow by themselves, all they need is harvesting and composting!<br />
I'm planning Earth Medic Technician (EaMT) Courses to begin this year for people to learn Resilience Training from Survival to Thriving!</div>

<blockquote>
'...She can motivate others just with the passion she has in her creative writing, speech and leadership. She synthesizes so many different aspects of society as a whole: global society, not just the society in which she exists. She sees the detrimental aspects of globalization, of the drive for oil and industrialization, and the rape of nations natural resources (from minerals in the earth to the humans and insects that live there). The thing is, when sitting around brainstorming about what to do and how to do something about all of this negativity happening in the world, she comes up with some AMAZING ideas. Not just flights of fancy, but really creative, pleasant, nurturing, healthy ways to make a community whole, and have it reach out to other communities with open arms, instead of with arms and ammunition. I think, given half a chance, she is going to make big changes in many many peoples lives. She has the courage to do it.' <a href="http://fiveorangepips.wordpress.com/about/">Dannyn Qualls-Peterson</a> <a href="http://fiveorangepips.wordpress.com/2010/04/12/creative-courage-what-will-save-us/">'A Leg to Stand On'</a></blockquote>

I've been an adventure sports instructor; teaching rock climbing, surfing, kayaking and abseiling. at <a href="http://www.adventure.uk.com/home1.html">Adventure International</a>, Cornwall and <a href="http://www.aultd.org/">Adventure Unlimited, Brighton.</a> I've worked for some years as an apprentice of Tibetan Medicine at the Eden Medical Centre in London, learning and practising Herbal Medicine, Massage and Acupressure. </div>
<div align="right">
<br /></div>
<div align="right">
I attended the British Schools Exploring Society's Iceland expedition for several weeks when I was 16yrs old, with the <a href="http://www.bses.org.uk/">British Schools Exploration Society</a> and since then have gravitated towards Alpine Climbing - completing the Alpine Apprenticeship in Switzerland in '02 with the renowned <a href="http://www.pyb.co.uk/index.php">Plas Y Brenin Mountain Outdoor Centre</a>. I have a background in Ecological Living, staying at <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20030816214512/http://www.lindsaynet.com/sunrun/" target="_blank">Sun Run Ecovillage Network of Canada</a> in 1997 helping to set up a housing co-op and living in various fields (literally) implementing renewable energy, permaculture and <a href="http://poitiveimpactliving.blogspot.com/2007/06/making-money-from-poo.html">living </a><a href="http://poitiveimpactliving.blogspot.com/2007/06/making-money-from-poo.html">machines</a> and planting a lot of trees.</div>

<div>
When I was nine years old I had to attend a special school '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2261613517">Pilgrims</a>' because of crippling eczema and asthma, which I have overcome. I became a proficient climber, kayaker and dinghy sailor throughout my teens eventually joining the Navy Cadets at Brighton College.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I have also overcome M.E or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which I contracted age eighteen. With the help of <a href="http://christopherhansard.com/">Christopher Hansard</a> and Stephanie Wright of the Eden Medical Centre, London and their expertise in Tibetan Medicine I was able to fully recover.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: right;">
I have been a Sales Manager for a <a href="http://www.magpie.coop/">Magpie Recycling Box Scheme</a>, lived at the Ecovillage HQ of Canada, and worked as a Product Advisor for <a href="http://www.karrimor.com/">Karrimor</a> Adventure Stores in Soho. I was also a waitress and food bar manager when I was 15 and as a Country Park Warden apprentice <a href="http://www.sevensisters.org.uk/">here</a>, sold karate lessons door-to-door, helped cater for 300 people on retreats in <a href="http://www.dzogchenbeara.org/">Dzogchen Beara</a>, Ireland and in Summer 06 I travelled around Somerset with a horse and cart.</div>

I followed that with grape picking in Provence with about twenty Moroccans, I believe I learnt more Arabic than French. I've also volunteered with a<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/3722674.stm"> local veggie box scheme</a> with Colette and Peter of<a href="http://www.localfoodadvisor.com/Producers/AshurstOrganics-2169.aspx"> Ashurst Organics</a> been Press Officer for Oxfam, run workshops, organised conferences and spent a lot of time planting seeds and pulling leeks and carrots.<br />
<br />
In '06 I went to Krakow, Poland and ate lots of pyrogi. I have worked in a stable near Bramley, England - looking after about forty hungry horses. Recently I have been helping out the <a href="http://ripaeuropeancentre.blogspot.com/">R</a><a href="http://ripaeuropeancentre.blogspot.com/">ipa European Centre</a> and setting up an International Fund for Peace in the Middle East with <a href="http://allmep.org/">www.allmep.org</a> which involved visting the Quai D'Orsay in Paris to discuss this strategy with MEP's and similar folk.</div>

That means that if you implement the methods outlined in any one of my articles you will have a Positive Impact in your own life and in the lives of everyone around the world. Each of these methods doesn't just reduce the negative impact that our lifestyles have on the world but actual provides real positive energy in the form of activating your full potential; integrating renewable energy, and actively solving international issues like social and environmental degradation. This is a process and one that I am also participating in. I have a vast background of seeking out solutions that work and though I haven't implemented all of these methods I am doing so and sharing my progress as I develop this site - so we're in this together.<br /><br />The PILLS pages provide articles on building your own renewable energy systems and related sustainable technology; a free online homestudy Bushcraft/Survival Course to complement actual workshops run by Survival Schools and other articles about personal development, fitness and health.You can either browse through all my articles or check out the categories.<br /><br />The idea is that you leave this site with the inspiration and tools to carry out changes that will really help you. I appreciate and value all feedback and you can contact me at my e-mail:- louisembrookes@hotmail.com<br /><br />If you are inspired by this site you can <a href="http://http://poitiveimpactliving.blogspot.com/2007/06/donate.html"><strong>make a donation</strong></a><br /><br />Thanks for coming and enjoy!
