William Bloom

William Bloom, PhD, is a global author, educator, and practitioner in metaphysics, spirituality, and wellbeing. He has been experiencing subtle dimensions and altered states of consciousness since childhood. His work empowers others to develop their own esoteric and spiritual skills and integrate them into everyday life.

His first career was as a novelist and editor in London publishing. His background also includes a 2-year off-grid retreat in the High Atlas Mountains of southern Morocco. He is currently director of the Spiritual Companions Trust, which pioneered the first UK-government approved course in spirituality and health. He is on the faculty of the Findhorn Foundation, Europe’s leading eco-spirituality center, and a trustee of Glastonbury Abbey.

His metaphysics and spirituality are fully grounded in emotional intelligence and social activism. His doctorate in identity politics is from the London School of Economics, where he also taught, and it was published by the Cambridge University Press. As a young man, he wrote fiction, and had three novels, a novella and four thrillers published before he was twenty-five. During the same period, with Nigerian and Jamaican colleagues, he founded the first 24-hour immigrant advisory service in the UK; and was London’s youngest commissioning editor in book publishing.

He has qualifications too in adult education and is deeply engaged in therapy and healing.

Embodied and good-humoured, he rides a motorcycle, enjoys being quiet in nature and lives with his wife in Glastonbury.
