What if you could unlock your true potential and find balance in every aspect of your life?

Hello, I’m Dylan, and I’m here to help you reconnect, with yourself, with others, and with the deeper rhythms of life.

For over 40 years, I’ve been exploring how we live, heal, and connect in a deeper, more authentic way. My path has wound through parenting, community building, workers’ cooperatives, festival organising, music and food culture, grassroots activism, alternative education, holistic health, and spiritual practice. I’ve travelled across the globe, learning from diverse cultures and ways of being, each one offering a new layer of insight. But beneath it all is the same call: helping people remember and embody their own freedom, presence, and truth.

My passion is rooted in empowering individuals and strengthening communities through an integrated approach to healing and personal growth. My journey has been shaped not only by extensive training, including 500hr RYT Yoga Alliance certification, advanced energy healing, sound therapy, qigong, meditation, and embodied movement practices. But equally by lived experience, curiosity, and continual learning from every encounter along the way.

In 1996, I established The Reiki Centre, offering a range of therapies and energy healing practices that deepened my journey into holistic wellbeing. A decade later, in 2006, I founded Millers Yard in York, UK, envisioned as a safe, inclusive space where people could come together to learn, grow, and reconnect. Since then, it has evolved into a thriving centre for holistic education and healing, supporting thousands of individuals along their path. In partnership with our sister organisation, Hawthorn Academy, we now offer programmes that help people discover purpose, cultivate resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives.
