Summary: LOVE ! LIFE ! LAUGHTER !  Love the suffering and transform it to joy.

Personal Statement: "Mrs Overall meets Ghandi" Charlie Jordan, LBC Radio.

After 35 years married to Stanley, Doris was blessed when a blinding flash electrocuted the hoover and her spirit guide shone through, warning her to beware of therapy.  She ignored the guidance and became addicted to New Age workshops, finally devising her own.  She now tours the world, (from Pontefract to Brighton), as "The New Age Guru", with agony aunt advice on prosperity, plumbing and poetry, leading journeys of enlightenment to the funny side of life.

"The best night I have ever spent in a theatre audience.  Deep magic" "I laughed so much my face hurt"

In another reality, she is Rachel Caine who leads Sacred Clown workshops internationally.  Visit website for full details of one year sacred clown training, "Playful Presence".

In previous lives, Rachel was a workaholic business woman, Market Stall holder in dodgy goods, Campsite toilet cleaner, unicyclist in Turkey where she could only turn to the left, and circus clown where she learnt all about the joy of chemical toilets.  These deep and meaningful experiences contribute to her greatest gift which is to love suffering and dog pooh.

Not much else to boast about except clowning shows in prison, psychiatric hospital, social clown project for the elderly, retreat leader at Cortijo Romero and Skyros, pictures in Spanish newspapers wearing a red nose, performances at Edinburgh Festival, Brighton Fringe, Alternatives and Glastonbury as well as Mind Body Spirit Festivals all over UK.  Doris has kettle and will travel.

Rachel also wears a different pinny as a Massage Therapist and Spiritual Healer, runs a Spa wellness Centre in Ibiza and conducts private transformational holidays for other burnt out women executives. She has a weekly poetry column in Ibiza called "Doris loves the World".

May she one day rest in peace.  Meanwhile, book her for your function, corporate fun day , join a workshop , take a week's retreat in Ibiza or call for a chat.  Please do visit the website and blog where Doris loves to share tea and biscuits and spread the latest gossip.

Rachel is currently inspiring the creation of new Social Clowning projects in our communities, to bring the joy and healing of clowning to the elderly, hospitals, and places where people may be isolated and lonely.
