PROGRAM BENEFITS

"Healing, Meaning and Purpose" by Dr. Richard G. Petty, is a new kind of course on three of the most important topics of our time. With a unique blend of scientific rigor, experience and profound insights, Dr. Petty takes us on a groundbreaking journey beyond the realms of current medical thought into a world of almost limitless possibility. He is unique in having trained in several fields of conventional and unorthodox medicine, taught at major universities, and for many years served the Research Council for Complementary Medicine and Prince Charles' Foundation for Integrated Medicine. What he teaches is the fruit of 35 years of experience, together with an analysis of many thousands of books and research papers, and detailed discussions with some of the foremost thinkers, intuitives and spiritual leaders of our time.

"Healing, Meaning and Purpose" is a major achievement, which builds on the pioneering of Nobel Prize winning scientists, and such visionaries as Deepak Chopra and Andrew Weil. The course presents a powerful and practical roadmap toward finding more meaning in your life, how to uncover your true Purpose and how to feel a deeper relationship with everyone and everything around you, and how to have a more profound connection with your own spirituality.

At its core, "Healing, Meaning and Purpose" proposes something quite astonishing, and it is that the Laws of Healing have been gradually changing, as the human race is changing. Dr. Petty provides new answers to questions about life, about health and about our capacity to change and to evolve. He shows us that the real secret to maintaining health and wellness lies not in a new diet or a new breathing exercise, but in understanding how to combine approaches which benefit not just the body, but also the mind, our relationships, the subtle energy systems of the body and our spirituality.

Here is some of what you will learn in this amazing new course:

* How science is driving a new vision of reality
* That you are a Healer: how to find and refine your own personal gift
* About the most powerful force in the human body: how you can find and mobilize it
