Peter Levine grew up in England in a setting that ticked all the wrong boxes. His early life left him with far more questions than answers and sowed seeds that inspired him to begin a lifelong quest to find meaning and truth. His search took him all over the world and he sought out and studied under teachers, mentors and adepts from diverse traditions, schools and inner sanctums. Over a period of some thirty years, as these various seeds germinated, he developed a love of wisdom and its application which flowered, causing him to gather esoteric, hidden and secret knowledge as well as Master’s degrees in Philosophy and History. The pieces of the puzzle began to fit.
In addition to lecturing, teaching and broadcasting Peter has worked extensively with severely emotionally and behaviorally challenged children and young people. This has galvanized his views on living the best possible life, something he believes passionately we can all access if we want it. He is an unashamed optimist who believes there is no challenge that can not be overcome with simplicity and good humor. Experience has shown him that the human spirit is indomitable and that human potential is the final and the greatest unexplored continent. He suffers from the indulgent pride of enjoying his adult children’s remarkable success in their chosen fields and watching them lead happy, fulfilled and purposeful lives.

We are here now, let’s create something excellent.

Influences/Inspirations:
There is a frailty and strength within the human spirit. Ultimately it is something that no power can imprison. Its liberation is the highest expression any of us can strive toward.
In nature I see objectivity embodied, its unbiased state of being is the purest form of wisdom I've ever encountered and I draw sustenence from it unfailingly.
My faltering steps carry me towards the objective of marrying the human spirit with its natural counterpart and seeing the offspring of their union.
