Program:

Join Deepak as he shares his latest work and shows you how your highest vision of yourself can be turned into physical reality.  At a time when millions of people are waking up to new possibilities opened up by alternative medicine, each of us faces a choice.  The highest choice
is to reinvent your own body and resurrect your own soul.

Deepak will explore ten breakthroughs – five for the body and five for the soul, that lead to self-transformation and will show you how to commit to a deeper awareness, focus on relationships instead of consumption, embrace every day as a new world, and transcend the obstacles that afflict body and mind.

Deepak explains how the greatest spiritual secrets are tied up in this simple answer. .  "You can't change the body without changing the self, and you can't change the self without bringing in the soul," He declares. "It's all one process, and it begins with knowing that your body exists to mirror who you are and who you want to be."
