Asghar and Irfan Ali founded Elixir Cupping Therapy in August 2023. Their collaboration with phytotherapist Shahbaz Anwar connects the broader Elixir story with community wellbeing.
Three brothers · One shared purpose
Blood, sweat and tears
Asghar Ali, Irfan Ali and Shahbaz Anwar bring different strengths to one shared vision. What binds them is the life, effort and heart they give in service of others.
Blood — devotion: a commitment held close to the heart, rooted in faith, belonging and responsibility. Sweat — service: the steady work of organising, learning, guiding and carrying a vision into action. Tears — compassion: the tenderness of remembrance, the willingness to feel another’s hardship, and the care that moves us to respond.
Together, these qualities express a brotherhood of service: each contribution strengthens the others, and the shared purpose reaches beyond any one individual.

Quiet leadership · Organisation · Community service
Asghar Ali
Asghar Ali is one of the quiet forces carrying this vision forward. His leadership is expressed through action: organising the work, giving sound direction and making room for others to contribute.
He brings the discipline of a business director and consultant to a deeply personal commitment to community service. For younger people, his example is practical and visible—keep your word, take responsibility and help wherever you can.
Asghar gives his time, energy and resources without seeking recognition. His commitment brings organisation, strategic care and selfless action to this shared vision.
“Invite the people (towards guidance) by means of your deeds and not by means of your tongues”
His contribution reminds us that some of the strongest leadership is quiet: the work gets done, people are supported, and the purpose stays at the centre.
Irfan Ali is a co-founder of Elixir Cupping Therapy whose community work connects wellbeing and spiritual reflection. His dedicated page explores TVRA alongside Spiritual SWOT, the complementary approach he has suggested.
Spiritual SWOT
Strengths: recognise the faith, qualities and support you can build upon. Weaknesses: acknowledge habits and gaps that need attention. Opportunities: find room to learn, serve and repair relationships. Threats: recognise influences that may draw you away from your values.
Shahbaz is a Swansea-based phytotherapist. Supporting his family during lockdown encouraged further study and experimentation with herbs. The published biography connects his months of recipe development with the creation of Elixir Oasis.
