A NEW discussion group helping people with everything from stress to motivation begins meeting on Monday.

The Quantumology group is led by author and life coach Kathy Ratcliffe.

Quantumology is her philosophy that the fundamental scientific principles underpinning natural phenomena such as the behaviour of light, can be applied to everyday life.

She said: “We will be talking about how quantum mechanics relates to our own lives, how we live in the quantum world and how we can understand the principles in order to further our quality of life.

“We work in alignment with these principles all the time, and the more we understand them the better it gets.”

The first meeting of the new group will be held in The Court Room at the Goddard Arms Hotel in Old Town on Monday at 6.30pm.

Initial meetings will be free to attend, with a small fee - yet to be decided - charged at subsequent ones. Kathy also organises Swindon Mind Body Spirit, a discussion group which meets at Il Capricorno in High Street on Tuesdays at 7.30pm.

Further information is available from Kathy on 07770 583223, at quantumologist@gmail.com and via the website swindonmindbodyspirit.com
