From a young age, Dr. Issam was deeply aware of his destiny and path in life. His life story is far from ordinary.

From the age of seven Dr. Issam's Grandfather, Gibrain would give his grandchild private lessons. He would talk to him about listening to your inner voice, understanding the power of thoughts and showing compassion towards others. From the age of eight and with his grandfather's encouragement and guidance, Dr. Issam began to meditate. At the age of thirteen whilst meditating, he saw a vision of war in his place of birth: Lebanon. Three months later, his vision became a reality as Lebanon was ravaged by civil war.

Lebanon was a dangerous place for a young boy to grow up in, with gunfire surrounding the town daily and bombs being dropped on nearby houses. The war could not be avoided by anyone; by the age of 16 Dr. Issam was captured and placed in jail while tortured. He often endured solitary confinement and went without food for days. Due to the difficult conditions, Dr. Issam knew he could only survive if he escaped. Over time he befriended a prison guard and by diverting the guards attention, Dr. Issam managed to steal a key to his cell. He had formulated an escape plan with three other people believing they could flee undetected by going through the prison's sewerage system. One of the prisoners was extremely weak at the time and died during the attempt but Dr. Issam and the other prisoner escaped.

After this experience at the age of 17, Dr. Issam and his Grandfather Gibrain were visited by an elderly man who called himself George. George informed them about the next part of Dr. Issam's life journey - he would spend over three years in a Mystery School in Tibet. With George guiding him they embarked on the difficult journey, through rugged terrain and difficult environmental conditions.

At the Tibetan Mystery School, the Masters taught Dr. Issam how to meditate more deeply to reach a 'bliss' state, to heal others through 'Ajna' healing, to see and read auras clearly and effortlessly and to astral travel for long periods. However as Dr. Issam was to find out, the Mystery Schools teach far more than intellectual knowledge. Dr. Issam had to pass through many rigorous tests, including healing his broken rib within 72 hours, using the power of his mind to transform food that was contaminated and not become sick by it and face months of confinement in a cave to discipline his mind, body and emotions. His time at the Mystery School, although rigorous, was one of the most enjoyable in his life.

Upon leaving the Mystery School, Dr. Issam traveled to Egypt where he obtained permission to stay and meditate in the Pyramid of Cheops for three days. During this time he had another vision, where he knew his life path would bring him to Australia. After Egypt, Dr. Issam spent some time at Le Chateau in France, well known for its spirituality and various parts of Europe meeting with different Masters to understand their work in the world and the healing they performed.

His life path is one where he is totally immersed in supporting the individual to find their own inner power.

Dr. Issam's focus is to empower you, so that you can live your life to the fullest with unconditional love and joy.

Dr. Issam is no ordinary man. He has spent years at the Mystery School in Tibet, spent time in Egypt, France, and various parts of Europe meeting with different masters, and working with them, and the healing they performed. He has not attained his knowledge solely through books like many practitioners. He has acquired his knowledge through education and through difficult experiences which has given him a deep understanding of life and life's lessons.

Dr. Issam's genuineness, and sincerity are just a few of many things which set him aside from most people. The feeling that you experience when you hear the warmth of his laughter, see the genuine love emanating from his eyes: you know with strong certainty that you are standing amongst someone with extraordinary powers

Over the years, Dr. Issam has attained a Doctorate in Theology, Divinity and Metaphysical Science, he is a Reiki and Sekhem Master and the Grand Master of the Ancient Tibetan method of Ajna Healing™ .He has also completed numerous courses in Hypnotherapy and Counseling.

In attending the classes and courses run by the International College of Meditation & Healing, or seeing Dr. Issam for counseling or healing, you will see that students and clients are not led through text book knowledge of what the 'latest' author is espousing. Rather, students embark on a journey of self understanding and self awareness, of inner power and strength— a journey back to the heart.
