John P. Milton
John is an early ecologist, one of the founding fathers of the modern environmental movement. He worked and studied extensively in many of the world’s shamanic and enlightening traditions, beginning with his first Vision Quest at age seven. Since then, starting in the 1950’s, John was one of the first to bring a contemporary Vision Quest form into western culture. One of his hopes is that by introducing this profound process to the West, many modern imbalances due to disconnection from Nature can be healed.
John has distilled the common ground found in many Nature-connected cultures; he brings this distillation of deep wisdom and Nature-connected practice into a pathway that is accessible to all. He brought this pathway together by founding an organization, the Way of Nature, in the 1970’s. John has published numerous books, articles, DVDs and audio teachings.
"I would recommend studying with John and engaging with his Sacred Passage work to anyone yearning for greater self awareness and inspiration. He is a master liberator of your creativity and your true essence!"
