Praxis-ppd
is a partnership of two individual approaches working towards achieving
the same aim – enabling people to change, to grow and develop
towards their fullest potential.
The partnership was formed in 1999 by Richard Broadley and Lina
Mookerjee.
Richard’s background is in Counselling and Psychotherapy, both
as a practitioner, trainer and a university teacher.
Lina’s background is in the field of Yoga Therapy and Teaching,
as well as possessing technical and project management experience.
They each recognised the value of the other’s individual experiences
and original ways of working in the personal development field,
and how they could be combined to form a uniquely powerful and effective
approach to facilitating change in a person’s life.

YOGA
THERAPY AND TEACHING
This is headed by Lina, who is responsible for the organisation and
delivery of the four components of this area of activity. She combines
her first hand experience of living with Yoga (having been brought
up in a Hindu Brahmin family) with her Western learning and application
of a person-centred approach – which enables her ‘students’
to acquire tangible benefits in their daily lives.
The four components are:
* Weekly yoga classes – in the Nottinghamshire area
* Full day workshops
* Yoga One-to-One tuition
* Yoga essentials and audio products
COUNSELLING,
PSYCHOTHERAPY AND CONSULTANCY
This is headed by Richard, who is responsible for the delivery and
administration of the three components of this area of activity.
His practice philosophy which has evolved over two decades, is a
dynamic integration of Transactional Analysis and the Person-Centred
Approach – both of which he has studied and taught for more
than ten years.
The three components are:* Counselling and Psychotherapy with individuals
or couples
* Clinical and Training Supervision – for therapists, related
professionals, trainers of counselling skills, and counsellor trainers
* Consultancy of various kinds, to individuals, organisations and
service providers
PERSONAL
DEVELOPMENT – WEEKENDS AND RETREAT/HOLIDAYS
This is a joint venture which brings together both Richard’s
and Lina’s expertise in their respective fields and combining
this in an effective and productive way. They provide a physical
and emotional environment that is conducive to sustained learning,
as well as encouraging participants to relax and take ‘time-out’
for themselves.
Lina and Richard offer this unique partnership in the following
ways:
* Week long retreat/holidays in Cyprus
* Weekend retreats in the U.K

LINA
MOOKERJEE
gained her Teaching Diploma through the British Wheel of Yoga, under
the tutelage of Fay Beddowes. Having been brought up in a Hindu
Bengali Brahmin family, she is able to bring to her teaching a depth
and richness of Yoga experience which only such a cultural and philosophical
heritage can provide. Lina was an engineer for almost 10 years,
but her increasing involvement in integrating her learning with
a Western humanistic perspective has meant that she is now a full
time yoga teacher. Her practical grounding in the western world,
combined with her understanding of an Eastern belief system that
has underpinned a Yogic approach to everyday living for millennia,
has created an holistic style of yoga which is particularly responsive
to the physical and spiritual challenges of modern western life.
At the root of her teaching is a fundemental respect for and acceptance
of each of her students - for who they are and whatever stage they
have reached. Through her teaching, her aim is to facilitate students'
self-exploration and enable their insightfulness to enhance their
daily lives. Her Yoga is truly a living Yoga, and Lina is an emphatic
example of this.
