OUR HISTORY

 

The Flame® was born from the little treasure that is 'Craft Culture' in 2008. For those unaware, Craft Culture, was a small, beautiful and humble Fair Trade retail outlet, based in Coventry's Lower Prescient. The shop was full of fair trade, hand-crafted and recycled treasures from all over the globe; ranging from Buddha's, African Masks, Egyptian treasures, Indian Crafts to Earthly Incense, healing crystals and lots more.

 

Being a big believer in unfathomable intelligence of consciousness, non-duality, The Universe and Meta-physics, Pushy, was far from your average shop owner. Powerful energies attracted the most unique people to Pushy's shop and as their diverse customer base grew, so did their dream. Pushy was and still is loved and respected for her qualities, compassion, depth and selflessness she so abundantly gifts to all those she meets.

 

As the years went by, Pushy delved in to conversations and exchange with authentic people from all different backgrounds and worldviews. From Ancient Astrologists, to Reiki healers, to herbal doctors to Physicists, Native Shamans and many many more. The shop turned into a meeting place for all sorts of people to exchange sacred knowledge, wisdom and talk about their ideals, spirituality and the science of consciousness without judgement. Many people asserted that they 'felt at peace' at Craft Culture and felt like they could 'be honest and themselves'. Pushy held many small events/meetings/classes for people to discuss spirituality, transpersonal health, wellness and mental health. Pushy also ran several charity events hosted by Craft Culture and encouraged local artists, carpenters and creatives to showcase their work in Craft Culture.

 

Some may think that the unique nature of the shop is the reason so many different people visited, however that alone could not explain the visitors and regular special sycronicities in Craft Culture. The simple driving force was the CC team. Their love, compassion and passion for helping people is something rooted in their essential nature. It cannot be built, only born with. The CC team prides their self on giving. The act of being 'selfless' is one to be admired and the CC team takes a very humanitarian approach when dealing with their customers. Not only did they build a loyal client base, by naturally providing free life/spiritual support, but they encouraged those who approached the shop to adopt a healthier holistic and conscious lifestyle with Right-Mindfulness, Holistic Health practices and Ancient Wisdom practices for wellness. Develop their personal life, inner contentment and optimal well-being.

 

For five years the CC team initiated an array of opportunities that they were not even aware off and a simple yet profound journey began. Craft Culture then began providing free mindfulness sessions for almost two years, led by one of the leading pioneers of Mindfulness in the UK, Master Dav Panesar. Over 2000 people attended and benefited from these sessions. Craft Culture began holding a selection of sacred wisdom tradition and health workshops with a very unique flavour. Traditional Yoga, Indian Science of Healing Ayurveda, Chinese Reiki Healing & Qi Gong, Meditation, Mind and Consciousness, just to name a few. One of the most important starting elements was the Craft Culture, Mindfulness, Compassion & self-discovery retreat that was held in Spain in September 2010.

 

From this idea the CC team were faced with a whole spectrum of needs based opportunity that arose. In 2013, Craft Culture then opened The Flame, Mindfulness, Holistic Health and Wellness Centre in Coventry's city arcade. 14+ years later, we have transformed the lives, mental health, over well-being of 30,000+ individuals internationally, with our life-affirming multidisciplinary medicine approach to health founded by non-paid Co-Director's  Master Dav Panesar, Pushy Kaur and Sonya Kaur.

 

We have hosted 8 international annual events at Coventry Cathedral, attracting thousands of participants. We brought Mindfulness to Coventry cathedral in 2013 and continued until 2018.

​

In 2020, we relocated to our new centre- our very own multidisciplinary medicine centre based just outside of the city centre near Earlsdon, Coventry. The Flame is now equipped with a brand new Ayurvedic massage room and two beautiful workshop and class spaces, decorated and influenced by The Flame’s authentic raw, pure, nature and Indic wisdom. Thank you to our beautiful volunteers and Flame Family for supporting this sacred expansion and house of wisdom. The new space is deeply healing, majestic and holds the energy of supreme consciousness in every corner. The Flame remains alight after over a decade of transforming the lives, whole health and well-being of 25,000+ individuals
