Renowned
author and leading-edge thinker Dr. Will Taegel
grew up on the Llano Estacado in Texas where
he began his lifelong and intimate relationship
with Nature. Choosing an integrative approach
early in his career, Dr. Taegel received his
formal education at Emory University gaining
a Masters degree; and at the University of
California Berkeley where he earned a Doctorate
from San Francisco Theological Seminary. Concurrent
with his formal education he explored his
Native American heritage and received traditional
training in the ways of the Shaman.
Always
fascinated and happily challenged by human
psychology and one’s relationship to
the self and others, Dr. Taegel conducted
a successful psychotherapy practice for 35
years, which evolved into his current role
as a soughtafter Eco-Spiritual Mentor. Dr.
Taegel and his spouse, Judith Yost founded
a three decades old eco-spiritual community
in the Texas Hill Country called Earthtribe.
He
has written eight books weaving together nature,
spirituality, psychology, and relationship
and has recently been appointed Dean of Faculty
at Wisdom University. Author of Nature and
Intimacy, and Natural Mystics, Dr. Taegel
has a newly published book entitled The Sacred
Council of Your WILD HEART: Nature’s
Hope in Earth’s Crisis.
