Bradford Keeney is the Vice President of The World Spirit Institute of the Nancy Connor Foundation in New Hope Pennsylvania and the author of many well-known and respected texts in professional psychology, including Shaking Out the Spirits: A Psychotherapist’s Entry Into the Healing Mysteries of Global Shamanism, The Lunatic Guide to the David Letterman Show and Crazy Wisdom Tales for Deadheads: A Shamanic Companion to the Grateful Dead.
Bradford Keeney, Ph.D., has been called “an all-American shaman, the Marco Polo of psychology, and an anthropologist of the spirit” by the editors of Utne Reader. Elders of indigenous traditions throughout the world – including the Kalahari Bushmen, the Caribbean Shakers of St. Vincent, the Guarani Indians of the Amazon, and leaders of the Japanese healing tradition of Seiki Jutsu – have embraced Keeney as an elder and spokesperson for the old ways of ecstatic shaking. Following an academic career as a systems theorist and psychotherapist, he spent over a decade traveling the globe, living with spiritual teachers, shamans, healers, and medicine people who trusted him to share their words with others – modern cultures in need of Elder wisdom.
