I've learned to do so many things: make fire by rubbing sticks together, travel in realms of spirit, be a father, perform differential calculus, shoot rapids in a canoe, teach meditation, use a chainsaw, heal and stay healthy, lie on my back and watch the clouds go by. I live on the west coast of Canada with a wonderful woman in a house overlooking the ocean. And now I've written a book that will save the world! Does it get any better??
My life has spanned a variety of disciplines and worldviews. These days I identify myself primarily as a writer. I'm also a teacher of spirituality and awakening, a guide and coach, a public speaker, and a practitioner of energy healing techniques.
I take life seriously and I have a lot of fun. I travel, ride a bicycle, swim, walk, and play table tennis. I love good coffee and good wine.
I have Bachelor's degrees in Chemistry/Mathematics and English Literature, and Master's degrees in Biochemistry and Public Administration. I worked for 20 years in human resource management and planning. I've taught business communication, statistics, and human resource management at university and college. My most important teachers of the meaning and potential of life have been Tom Brown Jr., Jon Young, David R. Hawkins, Michael Newton, and Ken Wilber. I've been challenged and enriched by many friends and partners, relatives and foes, and have learned to love them all.
I've been acknowledged as a storyteller, an elder, a shaman, a leader of ceremony, and someone who demonstrates the qualities of patience, wisdom, compassion, and understanding. I've Vision Quested four times. In 1999 I initiated the Firemaker Primitive Skills Gathering, an annual week-long learning and celebration of ancient skills and community.
Prior to writing Born Whole, I published numerous articles in various journals and newsletters on topics such as edible and medicinal plants, spirituality, healing, tracking, and Coyote Mentoring. I'm a contributing author of Peak States of Consciousness, Volume 2: Acquiring Extraordinary Spiritual and Shamanic States (Grant McFetridge with Wes Gietz, 2008).view less
