Disclaimer
Welcome to The Origins Keep. Everything offered here, the recordings, courses, writings and transmissions, is shared for your education, inspiration and personal growth. It is offered alongside the care of your own doctor and health professionals, who remain your first source of diagnosis and treatment. Please bring any question about a medical or psychological condition to them, and speak with them before beginning any new health practice.
Your health and care
If you are pregnant, taking medication, or living with a health condition such as epilepsy, a heart condition or a mental health diagnosis, please speak with your doctor before using the recordings or practices. Continue with any treatment your doctor has prescribed.
Listening safely
Many of our recordings guide you into deep relaxation and trance. Please enjoy them in a comfortable, safe setting where you can give yourself fully to the experience. Choose a time and place away from driving, operating equipment, supervising children, or any activity that calls for your full attention, and listen with a clear head, free of alcohol and recreational drugs.
Courses and certifications
Our courses teach skills for personal and professional development. A certificate confirms that you have completed the training. Each graduate is responsible for practising within the laws and professional rules of the place where they live and work.
Private sessions
Private sessions with Harry or Kathy are a professional coaching and hypnotherapy service, arranged directly with you under their own agreement. The general materials on this site are educational and are separate from that personal service. For Private sessions please contact Kathy or Harry directly. You can use the link below.
Spiritual and channelled teachings
The transmissions and teachings in the Keep are shared as they were received. They are offered for your own reflection, and you are invited to take what serves you.

Each person’s experience is their own, and results vary from one person to the next. You remain responsible for your own choices, actions and wellbeing.
