Living in a way that straddles Eastern and Western insights and experiences, I'm a writer, editor and teacher, who blends my learnings from philosophy, history, martial arts and natural medicine, to be a force for bringing forth, suppressed truths of the world-wide Indigenous. I love art, music, poetry and unfettered inquiry into Nature and human be-ing. Sometimes, I draw and make ceramics like the one in the photo above. I believe in generosity and and the life-saving quality of shinrin yoku and free hugs!
