Dr. Joe Vitale

One of the most recognizable names in the personal development space is ho'oponopono expert Dr. Joe Vitale you may know from "The Secret" book and movie that dropped like a bombshell on the world in 2006.

As the creator of his comprehensive ho'oponopono certification course for practitioners, Dr. Vitale has given us an amazing means of expanding our knowledge of ourselves while vastly improving our mental faculties.

In this article, I talk about Joe Vitale and his rise from poverty to becoming the bestselling author and lecturer we have come to know and to trust as our go-to source of learning.

Who is Dr. Joe Vitale?

dr joe vitaleWith his incredibly likeable yet no-nonsense personality, Dr. Joe Vitale is well known by many for his appearance as a presenter in the hit movie, "The Secret."

That came about thanks to his already well-documented success as an author, lecturer and teacher in the field of personal development. Coming from obscurity and poverty in Texas during the last century, Joe may have remained a complete unknown were it not for what many may refer to as an amazing stroke of luck.

He tells us that he was living on the streets of Dallas, poor as a churchmouse and with no light at the end of his own personal tunnel. To keep himself busy and use the long hours of free time that a homeless person has as their only real advantage over the working population, Joe spent his days in the Dallas library, reading the books in the personal growth section.

At first, nothing much changed outwardly, but inside, Joe was almost certainly being changed on the inside by the material he was absorbing and the spiritual truths he was constantly being exposed to. The concept that every person is responsible for their place in life and that their mindset is the driving force behind that position must surely have struck a nerve in the right place.

Whatever you want to call it, his "luck" changed in leaps and bounds... and the rest, as is said, is history.

Joe Vitale the Writer

Now, Dr. Joe Vitale has authored many bestselling books, including:

Joe Vitale the TV Celebritiy

Joe also has a number of Nightingale-Conant audio programs credited to him, such as:

In addition to Joe's popular role in the blockbuster movie, "The Secret," he has featured in the following TV shows:

Joe has also been featured in The New York Times and Newsweek.

Joe Vitale the Musician

Joe is also an accomplished musician and has been busy in that area as well, by creating a number of original songs that have been recorded onto no less than six albums!

A particularly satisfying accolade must be that Joe became the world's first self-help singer-songwriter (see 2012's Rolling Stone Magazine®).

A number of Joe's songs were recognized and nominated for the Posi Award, which is regarded by many as "The Grammys of Positive Music."

Joe also created the Miracles Coaching® program, which enables him to extend his reach to helping people achieve their dreams. He does this by helping students of his course to understand the deeper aspects of the law of attraction and the law of right action.

Joe certainly believes in magic and miracles and his own life story mirrors this belief graphically.

Joe Vitale and Ho'oponopono

Of course, the main focus of interest in the teacher and course creator is Joe's involvement in the traditional Hawaiian healing technique known as ho'oponopono.

Joe heard about the amazing healing feat performed by Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len at the Hawaii prison hospital for criminals with mental problems that conventional science was at a loss to treat with any success. If you like, you can read my article on Dr. Hew Len for details.

After meeting this amazing man and hearing his story first hand, Joe immersed himself in ho'oponopono, learning what it is, how it works and how it is used to heal the self as well as others. This lead to a collaboration between the two of them and the creation of the ho'oponopono practitioner certification course with musical input from Mathew Dixon followed.

You can read all about the course and how to get enrolled on it in the home page of this website (link at the top of this page).

Summary

If you are deeply interested in the unseen power that exists all around us as well as within us as I am, you will probably already know a lot about Dr. Joe Vitale and his achievements in his own life.

He often posts motivational videos on his own Youtube channel, including many featuring ho'oponopono and its mysteries explained. I have to say from personally watching them that they inspire me to tap into that universal power and develop myself personally.

Perhaps you should get busy and spend some time reading, listening to and watching Joe Vitale as he shares his own success, enthusiasm and energy with everyone who does so!
