He was born in London, yet raised in India, where meditation, yoga and personal growth training were a part of daily life.

He then completed his Ph.D from the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. On leaving the university, driven by a spirit of freedom and adventure, he founded and ran his own award-winning software company in Scotland for several years. In 2000, his company was awarded a Deloitte and Touche award for growing the business 167% in three years. Success however felt hollow.

He trained in advanced life enhancement techniques from the famous Swami Ramdev. He also discovered his gift of inspiring people to achieve their highest potential by re-igniting their passion and purpose. In 2008, Dr. Sharma moved to the USA where he spends his time teaching, speaking, learning and spending time with loved ones. |
