He was headed for the precipice of a full-fledged hip replacement. This extreme stress caused Christopher's hearing to wane, and his vision to dim, compelling him to read lips for communication. Amidst unyielding adversity, Christopher dedicated himself to seeking out the answers that would help alleviate his discomfort.

After a transformative decade under the tutelage of Grand Master Mantak Chia at Thailand's Universal Tao Master School, Christopher realized the power of what he had learned and made it his mission to guide others through the fog of accumulated stress in their lives. Christopher's profound wisdom birthed the holistic paradigm—True Body Intelligence technology—a fusion of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual enlightenment. His guidance garnered success in luminaries throughout sports, entertainment, commerce, medicine, and global diplomacy.

This tool and structure was soooo helpful for me, like a relief off of my shoulders to have. It gave us both the space to share. It has helped me stay relaxed, and to trust and just be." "My husband and I really needed a tool and structure to communicate and connect on all of the categories in our wheel of life. I loved how interactive it was, and how it covered all of our topics.
