In this episode I catch up with Andy Cooper PhD to get an update on the Helios School of Esoteric Science. Andy like myself is ex-SOL and someone I have known for quite a while so it was good to have a catch up. Our conversation started on updates Andy has been making to Helios to try to bring magical training to a broader audience by making it more accessible and structuring it for times in which people are often busy. But the conversation soon progressed into many other fascinating areas. Andy is a Third Degree Initiate of the Western Mystery Tradition and the Director of Studies of the Helios School of Esoteric Science, an online training school teaching the Western Mystery Tradition through Qabalah, Tarot and ancient Egyptian Metaphysics. Helios blends magical training with training in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to provide a coherent path of  emotional, mental and spiritual development. Andy has over 25 years of practical magical and occult experience, having personally trained with Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki for many years, the former Director of Studies of the Servants of the Light School of Occult Science. He is a certified trainer of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnosis, a Certified Tarot Reader/Advisor, an initiate of the Hawaiian Huna spiritual tradition, a Reiki Master and a Master Practitioner of Timeline Therapy. He holds a PhD in Esoteric Studies, a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering and an Advanced Diploma in Learning Management and is a Fellow of the Institute of Training & Occupational Learning.
