World renowned mentalist Ehud Segev, aka The Mentalizer, was born in 1979 in the Israeli city of Safed, long known as the spiritual center of the Jewish world. In the 16th century Safed emerged as the city of Kabbalah, the oldest, most influential wisdom of mysticism from throughout history. Most of the great scholars and Rabbi’s who studied and taught the secrets of Kabbalah lived in this great city, and it is also where Ehud Segev began his spiritual destiny. Ehud Segev, the “Mentalizer” or mental analyzer, combines his acting skills with his special, strong connection to people in order to provide entertainment as well as life understanding. As a young boy growing up in the Upper Galilee area of Israel in the 1980s, Ehud Segev chose to spend his time unlike other boys his age. While the neighborhood boys were outside playing, 12-year-old Segev was inside reading books on mind-reading, non-verbal behavior and that esoteric school of thought: the ancient spirituality of Kabbalah. Though the librarian was alarmed to see such a young boy delve into ancient mysticism, Segev’s mother was not. “She has always known there was something different about her son." “When I was twelve, I took the entire shelf of books that dealt with mysticism and spiritualism from the library, and my mother had to sign a permission form since I was too young for this topic. The librarian may have thought I lost my mind but my mother was ever so supportive. I’ll never forget that,” says Segev. His reputation for having a connection to the universe and his ability to read minds, analyze behavior and influence people set the stage for his worldwide success. At the age of 16, he was featured on the news for his unique ability, one that some people consider magic and others consider spirituality. Segev has another way of explaining it, one that he refers to as “magic from the mind.” “Others call it intuition. I don’t. I call it the knowledge to connect. The more YOU KNOW, the more you're able to connect to yourself and then to others. The more you are connected, the bigger the miracles you can perform in your life. I don’t have any supernatural powers, on the contrary— my powers are so natural that they are super natural. In my shows and lectures throughout the world I combine my special abilities as a performer with magic and spirituality. My goal: to make this world a better place and to help people realize that our deepest desires aren’t materialistic, but spiritual. If I can use all the publicity, the stage-presence and my TV appearances to bring people closer to the light, my destiny is fulfilled,” added Segev. Fascination with Segev continued and at the age of 19 he continued to shock and amaze throughout Israel. In one newspaper article titled “The Prophecy”, Segev predicted who would win the race for the mayors’ chair in several cities. The article was published 11 days before the elections took place. With only a photo to reference, Segev, as he put it, “used his mentalism abilities to mentally analyze each candidate and foresee the winners.” Segev was 100% right. This is when people started calling him the Mental Analyzer, or soon to be nicknamed The Mentalizer. A couple of years later Segev became one of the small percentage of entertainers that signed an exclusive contract with the US army to entertain far away troops in bases around the world. For this he received a coin of excellence - a special award for extraordinary contribution - which was the basis for accepting the EB-1 classification from the US Department of Homeland Security and becoming a permanent resident in America. To qualify for the prestigious EB-1 classification you must have an extraordinary ability and be "one of that small percentage who have risen to the very top of the field of endeavor" according to the USCIS documentation. Now performing shows and seminars all around the world, including being featured on shows such as NBC’s series “Phenomenon,” as well as on numerous Israeli television networks, Segev’s reputation is a positive one. Ehud Segev is concerned with providing people with something more than just entertainment, and that inner sense that by watching him they gain a deeper understanding on life. He also seeks to help people understand how they can put to practice some of his techniques to use in their own life through his program “How to Be a Mental Analyzer.” A program based on in-depth studies of human behavior patterns and the psyche, Segev believes anyone can learn his techniques of neuro-linguistic programming and interpreting body language to enhance daily interactions in the workplace and home. His belief is that these abilities can be used by anyone, to further good in the world and better humanity, one person at a time. “Yes, I am gifted. And I am now here to share this phenomenal gift with you. Each one of us is a prophet and each one of us is a leader and a follower, it’s just about using these as tools. Everyone can learn how to take advantage of these tools.”
