I am a great admirer of Podcasting. In these times of opening new media, podcasting has great liberating potential. Most of my life's work has focussed on helping humanity shift into ecologically-sustainable patterns and to develop a new, ecologically-aware, interfaith approach to spiritual development in Nature's wild and sacred places. The vision quest has been central to my own development, as well as to the opening insights of my students.

My formal degrees are in Biology and Ecology, and I have worked in the field extensively on environmental and spiritual cultivation projects in the Himalayas as well as in other parts of Asia, Europe, North and South America.
