Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore

Gay Hendricks developed from an academic psychologist into a public teacher of personal growth, relationships, and body intelligence. Raised in central Florida, he earned a Ph.D. in counseling psychology from Stanford in 1974 and then spent 21 years at the University of Colorado before founding the Hendricks Institute and later helping launch the Foundation for Conscious Living. One of his own stated turning points came around age 30, when he began organizing his life around a simple question of purpose and a commitment to doing what he most loved.
