Within Without is founded on the principle that the outside world starts within. With much of our focus on the external world, it’s easy to lose sight of ourselves. Our hope is that this volume gives the reader a pause for thought. We ask what is the relationship between our inner life and the outer world? How can creative practice help us stay awake to each moment? How can our creative process help us navigate all that’s going on within and without?

Legacy of Love
Eighteen international artists took on a single theme and made it their own. Painting, photography, video, essays, poems, and lyrics. Hand-sewn, on recycled paper.
A story about life. And death.
A friendship. And music.
This landmark issue of an independent annual print publication series that shares intimate perspectives into the hearts and minds of creatives unfolds over 90 pages of musician Bill Rieflin's personal correspondence with the editor, Iona Singleton, as he shares his intimate thoughts during the last four years of his life, from 2016 until his passing on the 24th March 2020. His letters are beautiful, sarcastic, and disturbing. He imbues the mundane with the whimsical, searching for a deeper meaning amid his own illness and the death of his wife, Francesca.
“I think sharing is a natural aspect of human experience. Sharing who we are is an expression of love.” - Bill Rieflin
Rieflin’s writings are accompanied by images from an array of leading photographers and graphic artists. Each of them expresses their unique creative perspective on the theme Mining in Heaven as a starting point for the distinct narratives that unfold throughout.

My path into psychology has not been linear.
Before training as a psychologist, I spent a decade working internationally in the music industry, touring with musicians and artists. I witnessed extraordinary creativity and the emotional cost that often remains unseen. I began working with music and mental health organisations, using music as a way of opening dialogue around mental health. Today, I continue this work providing therapy for musicians, crew, and touring professionals.
During this time, I was also following another path. Years of study in yoga, meditation, Ayurveda, somatics, and body-based approaches to healing deepened my understanding of the relationship between the body, the nervous system, and emotional wellbeing. These traditions continue to shape both my life and my work.
Within Without was born from the meeting of these worlds. Whether through therapy, movement, workshops, or teaching, my intention is to create spaces where people can reconnect, discover their own creative intelligence, and remember that healing is not only about reducing suffering, but also about becoming more fully alive.
Alongside my clinical practice, I am completing a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and Existential Psychotherapy, I continue to explore how body, relationship, creativity, and meaning come together in the process of healing.
