Here’s John’s Story…
Dr John Demartini is a world leading inspirational speaker and author at the forefront of the burgeoning personal and professional development industry.
His scope of knowledge and experience is a culmination of 34 years of research and studies of more than 28,000 texts into over 200 different disciplines ranging from psychology, philosophy, metaphysics, theology, neurology and physiology.
Born in Houston Texas Dr Demartini was one of two children. At the age of seven he was told he had a learning disability and would never read, write or communicate. At fourteen he was a high school drop out living on the streets and panhandling for food to survive. After a near death experience at seventeen due to severe strychnine poisoning Dr Demartini made a decision that would change his life forever.
He explains:
“After being given a second chance I made the decision to dedicate my life to becoming a teacher, healer and philosopher. I have been working on that mission for thirty years now. I became a doctor of chiropractic and clinical researcher to understand the essence of healing.
I became a professional speaker to master the art of teaching and I became a student of science, theology and philosophy to understand our connection with the divine.”
Today Dr Demartini speaks 300 days a year in over fifty countries across the globe and is the author of over forty books. Some of his bestselling titles include -’The Breakthrough Experience- a revolutionary new approach to Personal transformation’, ‘Count Your Blessings’ and ‘How to make one Hell of a Profit and still get to Heaven’.
In recent times Dr Demartini has captured the attention of celebrities, international sport personalities, noted politicians and UN representatives as the result of a self help methodology he developed and coined as ‘The Demartini Method ®’.
Derived from a study of Quantum Physics, ‘The Demartini Method ®’ is now being studied in a number of Universities and presented to psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, health professionals and prison workers all over the world.
As a presenter, Dr Demartini has shared the stage with such noted speakers as Stephen Covey, Dr Donald Beck, Les Brown, Mark Victor Hansen, Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, Dr Patch Adams and many others.
He has been a welcomed guest on over 1200 radio and television talk shows including: CNN Larry King Live, CBS’s The Early Show, PBS’s This is America with Dennis Wholey, CNBC’s Alive and Wellness, Mornings with Kerrianne, Good Morning Australia, Carte Blanche, 3 Talk, and Voice of America.

James Ray International was recently featured in the San Diego Business Journal as one of the most-successful and fastest-growing local businesses.
James has devoted over two decades to studying the thoughts, actions, and habits of those who possess true wealth in all areas of their lives. Just as those he studies, James has created an impressive list of his own successes, including over five years as one of AT&T’s top sales managers, four years as a personal and business growth expert with AT&T School of Business, and four years working with best-selling author Stephen Covey, and 13 years as an entrepreneur and business growth expert.
James has studied and been exposed to a wide diversity of teachings and teachers - from traditional college and the schools of the corporate world, to the ancient cultures of Peru and Egypt, and the jungles of the Amazon. As a result, he has the unique ability to blend the mystical and practical into a usable and easy-to-access formula.
As a coach and mentor, James has taught thousands of individuals and organizations to create harmonic wealth in all areas of their businesses and lives. Because of his comprehensive and integrated background, James considers himself a “practical mystic,” and he seeks to share this unique way of living with individuals around the world.

His work in quantum physics and consciousness is well known through his popular and scientific writing. He is the author of eleven books.
His Journey through the Fascination with Physics. . .
Dr. Wolf’s fascination with the world of physics began one afternoon as a child at a local matinee, when the newsreel revealed the awesome power and might of the world’s first atomic explosion. This fascination continued, leading Wolf to study mathematics and physics.
In 1963, he received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from UCLA and began researching the field of high atmospheric particle behavior following a nuclear explosion. Wolf’s inquiring mind has delved into the relationship between human consciousness, psychology, physiology, the mystical, and the spiritual.
His investigations have taken him from intimate discussions with physicist David Bohm to the magical and mysterious jungles of Peru, from master classes with Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman to the high deserts of Mexico, from a significant meeting with Werner Heisenberg to the hot coals of a firewalk.

If you have witnessed the inspirational movie The Secret then you will surely be familiar with Bob Doyle. You have to admire the man for his simple grasp and communication of the laws of attraction.
His Journey. . .
After four years in a corporate job Bob had grown sick of it because of a lack of passion and a sense of being a slave to his day job just for his paycheck.
With a dwindling spirit in 2002 times had to change- Bob was to take advantage of his passions and share them to help millions of people.
He explains:
“Personal development has nearly always been at the root of these projects, mostly because I wanted to experience breakthroughs in my OWN life, and the share the successful principles with others. Because I was so desperately miserable - and knew that there were literally millions of others in a similar position, if I could find an answer, I knew it was my job to share it with as many people as I could.”
So. . .
In 2002 Bob Doyle became the creator and facilitator of the Wealth Beyond Reason program, a powerful multi-media curriculum on the laws of attraction and its practical application.
Bob concentrates on the science aspect of the law of attraction to help you more purposely activate the law in your life, and to attract wealth, success, awesome relationships, and anything else your heart desires.
Bob offers his thoughts. . .
Day after day, millions of people go through their lives wishing and hoping and dreaming that things could be better, with absolutely no knowledge that it is they themselves that perpetuate their own dissatisfaction.
It is not the “gifted few” who create their realities. It’s not just for those in the metaphysical community. It is all of us. Every single one. However, there are a few who have awakened to this knowledge, and make creating their reality a daily event…manifesting whatever it is they want in their life with seemingly no effort!
Meanwhile the rest of the world looks on in wonder and disbelief. They assume that these “fortunate few” are among the cosmically lucky
You ARE a part of the Universe and through the power of thought, have the same creative power that manifests everything you see. The only thing that limits your potential is your own belief system!
Everything that occurs in your life is interpreted BY YOU. You add the meaning, you add the emotional response, you add EVERYTHING. It is your thoughts that literally take the energy “data” and transpose it into your reality. What you consider “real” is nothing more than an agreement that you’ve made with yourself (and no doubt many others in some cases).
Michael Beckwith is a master of spirituality and a positively enlightening individual. These qualities will all come flooding back to you if you have ever see the life-changing documentary The Secret. The contribution Michael makes is truly absorbing and he certainly knows how to captivate an audience.

He is the founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center, cofounder of the Association for Global New Thought, and the Season for Nonviolence, which are extensions of his vision of one human family united on a foundation of peace, based on the spiritual origin of every man, woman, and child.
