One of the few teachers, authors and speakers actually working at the leading edge, providing solid, up-to-date information and practical energy tools to help us keep pace with the Shift, Jim walks with a foot in both worlds.

At the age of twenty-six, Jim was elected to his first of two terms to the San Jose, CA City Council and later became the Vice Mayor. Before completing his second term, he was asked by President Jimmy Carter to be an advisor and the Director of Governmental Operations for the Dept. of Energy. As an entrepreneur, he has successfully built and sold two corporations, and is the founder and current Board Chairman of a third biomedical corporation.

At the same time, Jim has had the ability since childhood to recall his experiences within the sleep state. Over the last twenty years, this awareness has expanded into relationships with the archangels, ascended masters and teachers of Light. The tools and information presented in the program, Mastering Alchemy, is a co-creation of these relationships.

Jim has been leading seminars on personal energy management and the tools of Mastering Alchemy for over thirty years.

Roxane Burnett was a successful art director and manager for two major corporations for many years prior to taking the leap of faith and starting her own design firm. At night, she taught the tools presented in this book and was soon faced with the decision to jump off another cliff: to teach and coach full time. She has never looked back.

Presenting this work live throughout North America, Roxane is also the co-author of Spirit Matters and has been offering tools for developing intuition and personal power to individuals, businesses and professional women's groups since 1994. She has been featured on television, radio, and in national publications both in the US and Australia.

Roxane is the co-founder of Mastering Alchemy, manages the business, website, and the many volunteers. She joyfully creates and presents this work with Jim.
