	Peter Anthony I am a spiritualist life coach, motivational speaker and author of several non-fiction inspirational books.  As a television producer on a new series called, Healing Journey, I research highly unusual curative modalities. Having an extensive background in numerology science allows for a greater perspective of complex healing techniques for our show and has allowed me to further research some of the most controversial subject matter.    My recent involvement with Live Your Life Productions has prompted me to create the screenplay adaptation for my International selling book, Key Master.  Inspired by true events; this amazing story takes you on a roller coaster ride of the unimaginable. Whether it is clear to us or not, there is an undeniable order to our universe. The Key Master book trilogy unfastens a thought provoking world with the intention of allowing the reader to discover a spiritual paradise we all dream of.  From TV, to book festivals, to radio talk shows, to press stories and now a feature film, Key Master will motivate you to go beyond reality.
