Lifespring trainings were designed by John Hanley, Sr., Ph.D., on the model of experiential learning rather than on a lecture or book-learning format. The immediate and sustained success of this model was proven effective by Lifespring after its founding in 1974, and the model has evolved and grown into various experiential education formats around the world.

While experiential training is of a different stripe than traditional forms of transformation--such as the perusing of a well-written book--Dr. John Hanley recognized the power of written words and thoughts to ignite and catalyze the desire for and development of human potential.

This web site focuses on books recommended by the Lifespring founders for their correlation with the ideals of Lifespring.

Lifespring sought to champion the highest potential and possibility for all human beings and acted with that highest aim in mind.

Such an aim can aptly be surmised from the words of John Hanley himself: "all human beings have an inalienable right to pursue their highest possibilities." Hanley's own book Lifespring: Getting Yourself from Where you are to Where You Want to Go, written in the wake of Lifespring's success, is included.
