James
Endredy is a teacher, mentor,
and guide to thousands of people through his books and nature-oriented
activities and ceremonies. After a series of life tragedies
and mystical experiences as a teenager he changed direction
from his Catholic upbringing and embarked on a life-long
spiritual journey to encounter the mysteries of life and
death and why we are all here. For over twenty-five years
he has learned shamanic practices from all over the globe,
while also studying with kawiteros, lamas, siddhas, roadmen,
and leaders in the modern fields of ecopsychology, bioregionalism,
and sustainable living. James also worked for ten years
with Mexican shamanic researcher Victor Sanchez learning
to share shamanic practices with modern people.
On
a daily level, his experiences have inspired him to live
a sustainable lifestyle as much as possible while still
working within mainstream society. He writes, leads activities
and ceremonies, mentors private clients, visits schools
and community centers, speaks at bookstores, and volunteers
in his community. His books have thus far been published
in four languages.
To
insure the safety of the participants in his activities,
James is a nationally certified Wilderness First Responder
by WMI (Wilderness Medicine Institute) and NOLS (National
Outdoor Leadership School).
